Marquee Hire
The cheapest large marquee I can find for the full week is around £750. Anyone any ideas about cheaper sources?
And, no, I don't want to join up a load of plastic gazebos if I can help it, I want a proper heavy duty canvas marquee, at least 10 metres by 8 metres.

You've probably tried these, http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&tab=wl
No better idea except looking at the cost of buying one, I'm sure there would be volunteers to erect/drop it.
Ahhh, the link hasn't worked too well, I Google maped 'Marquee hire - Near - Worcester'.
Came up with the local firms.

These people http://www.allaboutmarquees.co.uk/marquees.htm do a 7.3m x 12m for £640, but that doesn't include delivery and erection.

http://www.boldscan.co.uk/ dont know want the prices are like but might be worth alook note not the canvas type
Problem is delivering, collecting setting up and removing is labour intensive, this is where buying and having the rabble set up/take down could be cost effective. Suppliers also have to pay massive insurance to cover the Compo Society.
One of our cycle clubs owns a tent of the right size for an annual event only, for those reasons. (No, we can't rent it out, for the same reasons),
But worth looking into buying.

Re: Marquee Hire
All sorted now! Many thanks for all your suggestions. I had to go for a large plastic marquee in the end, but very reasonably priced from http://www.castlefieldmarquees.co.uk of Solihull.

Re: Marquee Hire
Is it bought or rented (no pun...)?
