Booked for Private party

We hired the Espree Marquee from Canvas Knights for a small festival, and used it as our primary stage/tent - and it was absolutely perfect. During the day we had karaoke, prize giving, DJ sets, and a ceilidh (traditional dance) in there; after dark, it turned into a club (we added the sides on). It worked exceptionally for all purposes. It looks gorgeous, it feels sturdy and elegant, is easily configurable (the sides can be taken off or put on very easily, in almost whatever order you like), and Canvas Knights did both setup and setdown for us fairly quickly, in a friendly manner, and unintrusively. Canvas Knights were also very communicative and clear about pricing and logistics. I'd highly recommend Canvas Knights, and the Espree, for any party, wedding, or gathering that fits in the 40-120 people region. We had around 100 people dancing in there, though I reckon you could get in 120-140 (for more of a 'club' feel). See the attached pictures for an idea of how this looked!

Booked for Birthday party for kids

Heidi was brilliant from start to finish. My daughter had the best time celebrating her 9th birthday with the belle tent sleep over set up. I cannot thank you enough it has made her year, she was so excited and proud to show it off to her fellow campers! The attention to detail and product quality was impeccable! Will definitely use again!
