Unique Technology in Each Pop-Up Shelter
Our pop up tents are developed exclusively in-house using customer feedback as our guide. Each gazebo has exclusive components that elevate it above many others on the market. External peak pole springs in the commercial aluminium pop gazebos help to protect the framework in windy conditions. We use profile aluminium joints instead of the cast alloy which is in use by our competitors. The Pro 60 is the UK’s only pop up gazebo that uses 60mm hexagonal legs and double reinforced joints. These are just some of the reasons why Gala Tent pop up gazebos are renowned as the strongest and longest-lasting on the UK market.
Universal Covers
At Gala Tent, we use the same superior quality 600 denier PVC-coated polyester material the covers for all of our pop up canopies, whether you buy an entry level or top of the range tent. We do not cut corners on quality and are committed to putting our name on only the highest quality, waterproof materials that are fire-rated. All of our pop up canopies are available with a choice of twelve colour canopies, with a range of sidewall options to match.
Pop Up Shelters for Business
Our range of pop up shelters are suitable for all manner of business uses, from occasional trade shows to city centre information kiosks, to daily use as a market stall. Each tent is supplied in one single piece that expands to up to 4m x 8m in area, depending on the model you select. Make use of a heavy duty storage bag for your commercial pop up gazebo, to simplify transporting it from A to B.

Entertain your guests in style and comfort, no matter the weather.
