Go Green & Glam! Sustainable Temporary Architecture for Eco-Conscious Events 

For decades, marquees have been synonymous with grand events – temporary structures providing elegant backdrops for celebrations under the open sky. But The English Marquee Company (EMC), a Yorkshire-based innovator, is rewriting the narrative. Their focus? Pioneering event structures that push the boundaries of design and sustainability.

Founded by siblings Sam and Victoria Peters, EMC blends traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Their marquee collections – Heritage and Innovation – cater to a diverse clientele, but it’s the latter that truly sets them apart.

The Innovation collection features bespoke marquees designed in collaboration with leading event planners. These aren’t your average tents; they’re architectural marvels, each boasting unparalleled strength, safety, and style.

The Frame Marquee, for instance, offers a contemporary haven for up to 5,000 guests. Imagine a clear-span space bathed in natural light, thanks to its innovative structure.

But the true showstopper is on the horizon. In 2024, EMC unveils “Nord” – the world’s first and most sustainable marquee ever built. This commitment to sustainability extends beyond Nord. Their “Solstice” marquee, also launching this year, utilizes a translucent, weatherproof fabric, reducing the need for additional lighting.

Despite their focus on innovation, EMC hasn’t forgotten its heritage. The Heritage collection celebrates time-honoured craftsmanship with meticulously handcrafted pole tents, stretch tents, and pagodas. These marquees, named after charming English locations like The Cotswold and The Dales, showcase premium fabrics and sustainable timber, offering a touch of timeless elegance for any event.
