What size tent do I need?

What kinds of tents can I rent?

Canopies

Do-it-yourself customer set-up tents using center poles which are pulled out by side poles with stakes. Canopies must be installed on grass or gravel base.

Frame Tents

Professionally installed tents consisting of a vinyl top stretched over a metal frame and containing no center pole.

Pole Tents

Pole tents feature spacious interiors and a high peaked roof, offering excellent floor planning and decorating possibilities.
