Marquee Hire

A marquee can be hired for events taking place at Hargate Hall. The marquee is to be used for dining only. Your evening party and any disco etc would be conducted in the main hall.

The marquee is 21m by 10m. The basic spec is unlined, simple lighting, plain wooden floor (sealed plywood) with power (32 amp max) and an oil fired space heater (with 4hrs worth of fuel). In very cold or windy conditions you may need to hire in a second heater. Table and chairs are also included but not the linen and crockery etc.

Other information

Size - the marquee is 21m long x 10m wide. the sides are all made up of 3m bays and the ends have a 4m bay in the middle and 3m bays either side.

The marquee heater comes with 20l diesel which is enough for around 4hrs running. Additional fuel in multiples of 20l is available for £30 (may vary depending on fuel prices).

There is no easy vehicular access to the marquee. There is a wide footpath, but this is not suitable for most vehicles (they get stuck which can be highly embarrassing when all the guests are looking on). Caterers and deliveries may need a suitable trolley for transporting goods. At present access is only available through the front of the marquee, however we are working on creating a rear access as well. if you need any advise on this please contact us.

The power supply to the marquee is a maximum of 32 amps, there is a maximum rating for any single circuit of 16 amps. We recommend that all cooking equipment is gas powered.
