Chinese Hat Marquees

Chinese Hat tents are small with an Oriental-style pointed high roof.

Key features

  • Frame structures: Like other frame tents, Chinese hat marquees are flexible. They can have walls, no walls or transparent walls. They can be installed on grass or hard surfaces.
  • Robust: As solid frame structures, they are designed for typical UK weather conditions and are fully waterproof when properly installed. They can be used year-round, but due to their size, they’re not usually used as fully enclosed heated spaces on their own.
  • Size: 3m x 3m (10′ x 10′) or 6m x 6m (20′ x 20′).
  • Capacity: for a seated event, they can seat 16 (3m) or 35 (6m). For a standing event, the equivalent figures are 30 and 60.
  • Many names: sometimes called Pagoda tents, or Witch’s Hats

Typical Uses

  • Chinese Hat tents are most often used as entrances, bars, or for catering or chillout areas
  • Their pointy tops make them an attractive location for small party. And a row of Chinese Hats is an impressive sight.
