Our Story
We are CGC Event Marquees. A Yorkshire based marquee hire company offering clear span marquees, linings for barns, furniture and equipment hire, and a full range of finishing touches for temporary spaces.
We like to think that we could be classed as experts in our field; thirty five years of combined experience in our team allows us to say that. With that many years under our belts there are not many marquee scenarios we haven’t encountered, and we love a challenge! We’ve built marquees on city centre roof tops, kept marquees standing through extreme “weather bombs” and even built marquees fit for Royalty.
Our process is a simple one and our approach is to help you during the planning of your marquee event as much as we can. We’re on hand with tips and advice to bring your vision to life.
“Being able to turn clients' visions of their perfect event into reality is what we enjoy most. Clients' responses to our marquee designs and builds for the events we are involved with are priceless. Providing these moments is what makes our job so fulfilling and why I continue to enjoy my work, even after 30 years.”

Head of Marquees
If you’re ready to start planning your next marquee event then get in touch.
How does the booking process work?
​
Following your initial enquiry we’ll ask a few questions to get a good feel for your marquee hire needs.
​
We’ll then send you a bespoke quotation detailing everything that’s included and some optional extras for you to consider.
​
A no obligation site visit allows us to look at all the finer details with you including access to the location and any obstacles to work around during the build. Following this visit we can digitally mock up your marquee plan with table layout, position of the dance floor etc. allowing you to get a great understanding of how everything will look.
​
Once you’ve confirmed you’d like to go ahead we’ll send you over a contract and deposit request to get the booking secured.
​
In the lead up to your event we’ll be in touch regularly to finalise all the details for the build.
​
