Everything You Need To Know About An Event Structure

When you think of an event structure or an event tent, you may think that it’s a highly temporary structure that could topple over with a gust of wind. You also may question just how useful it can be. Believe it or not, these structures have more to offer you than you may think.

Here, you will find out everything you need to know about an event structure. That way, for your next event, you will be one step ahead of the competition with all these temporary event tents have to offer.

 

They are temporary but strong.

Temporary event structures may have you question just how strong they can be. After all, you have always been taught that tents are not the place to be when inclement weather strikes. What makes a temporary event structure any different?

These tents are designed to withstand inclement weather. In fact, they are constructed using high-quality materials, including aluminum roof rafters that are connected to aluminum or steel purlins. The structure is supported by perimeter support columns made of aluminum and steel alloys which gives them their strength.

Because it varies, each tent will be given a stated wind speed that it can withstand, as well as a weight load on the roof. While they may not be able to handle great hurricane-force winds, most of these structures can do just fine in your average harsh thunderstorms or snowstorms.

 

An event structure looks nice – and downright eye-pleasing.

Have you ever tripped over the ropes attached to stakes holding a tent up? Not only is this dangerous and a safety hazard, it is also incredibly displeasing to the eye. Thankfully a temporary event structure does not require this method for staying upright.

As stated above, the tents are designed with perimeter support columns and do not require the use of guy lines, ropes, or stakes. That means you can erect them anywhere – even on uneven ground – and there will be nothing in the way to make it look like an unsightly tent. Instead, you will have an impressive structure that you can be proud of.

 

 

They can fit in every space.

Temporary event tents are incredibly customizable. Therefore, if you are holding an event in a large vacant field, at a local park, a small parking lot, or even in your neighbor’s backyard, you can rent a tent that will fit perfectly. In addition, if you have a large space, how do you know how large of a tent you will need? You can customize that tent based on the number of attendees or for the desired use of it.

In other words, your event tent can be designed exactly for you and your needs.

 

Event structures offer a wide-open layout.

If you are looking to hold an event in a permanent structure, you will have to deal with pre-constructed walls and layout. However, in an event tent, you don’t have that worry at all. Because they are constructed with perimeter poles to secure the structure, there are no inside structural beams that will interfere with views, design, or flow of your layout.

Instead, you are left with a wide-open space that is yours to design from scratch. No pre-constructed walls or rooms – just space.

 

Sidewalls can enclose the space.

Side walls are a nice perk of event tents. Sure, there are many times when you wouldn’t likely consider the use of them. This may include using the tent for a company barbecue or an outdoor sporting event. But, there are other times when these sidewalls can make a huge difference.

If you are trying to give your event a more elegant or indoor feel, then you will want side walls. Or, if you are in an area when inclement weather has a high probability of making an appearance, the side walls are sure to keep your guests and your event from being a washout. Lastly, if you are looking for the privacy of an enclosed space, then side walls are the way to go.

Whatever your reason, side walls can offer a great solution.

 

 

There are many ways to accessorize an event structure.

A temporary event structure can be transformed into the space of your dreams by taking advantage of all the potential tent accessories. For instance:

  • You may be holding an event outdoors, but you don’t need to have grass or dirt at your feet. Instead, you can choose to have actual floorings, such as wood flooring or even carpet.
  • If you want your guests to get down and boogie, you can add a dance floor and a stage for the band.
  • If the weather outside is too cold or too hot, you can opt for climate control in your tent. This is an HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system that keeps the climate throughout the tent at the perfect temperature of your choice.
  • Want to make a bold statement? You can choose to have glass double doors as an entryway into your tent.

While these are only a couple of the many accessories available, you will be surprised at how easy it will be to forget you are even partying in a tent!

 

Temporary structures are used in so many industries.

There are many industries that utilize these temporary structures – especially because of their extreme versatility. You can find them at sporting events, corporate functions/trade shows, local markets, military use, disaster relief, construction companies, and so much more. They are also popular for weddings, parties, and other events. From the reasons above, it’s easy to see why they are so popular.

 

Now you know all that these great temporary structures have to offer. From customizing the size and layout to making the decision on sidewalls and flooring – you have many options. No two event structures are exactly alike. With all the perks that you can choose, your event structure may feel more like a permanent structure. Except, you get to design the layout and all the accessories. Why would you choose to hold your next event in any other space?
