Budget-Friendly Marquees for Every Event

Are you in the market for a marquee but working with a limited budget? It can be very tempting to splash a little cash on a cheap marquee from a non-specialist online global retailer or supermarket filled with seasonal special buys, thinking it will save you money. However, it's essential to consider the long-term value and durability of your investment.

Cheap marquees can be a major a false economy if purchased from supermarkets or home and garden superstores. It is much more prudent to purchase from a specialist that has spent 25 years developing products that are fit for the purpose, whatever purpose you might have in mind.


As the UK’s market leading, multiple-award-winning retailer of the best marquees and gazebos which use the strongest materials, Gala Tent cannot unfortunately lay claim to having the cheapest marquees. There’s a famous formula, which works well in this instance.

If you want it Top Quality and Fast, it won’t be Cheap
If you want it Top Quality and Cheap, it won’t come Fast
If you want Cheap and Fast, it won’t be Top Quality

The Original PE marquee is perfectly suited for home and garden uses, as well as any light commercial applications for businesses that need a little more space than they might get from a pop up gazebo. These marquees have been used as hot tub shelters, shelter on the decking, trading stalls and wedding marquees. They may be the cheapest marquees available to buy from Gala Tent, but we would never sell a product that we aren't 100% confident would do any job you demanded of it.

Why Choose Gala Tent?

Gala Tent has been a trusted name in the gazebo and marquee industry for over two decades. Our commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction is unparalleled. We specialise in supplying high-quality marquees for a wide range of budgets, ensuring that everyone can find a suitable option for their needs. Whether you're hosting a small garden gathering, trading at summer craft fairs, or organising a large-scale event, Gala Tent is guaranteed to have the perfect solution for you.

The Importance of Long-Term Value

When investing in a marquee, it's crucial to consider the long-term value rather than focusing solely on the initial cost. Cheap marquees may seem like a cost-effective choice at first, but they often result in frequent replacements or repairs, ultimately costing you more in the long run. The Gala Tent Original PE Marquee offers a unique combination of affordability, durability, and quality, providing you with a long-lasting marquee that will stand the test of time.

Let the Marquee Pay for Itself by Hiring it out

And as the premium name brand in our field, Gala Tent structures retain a high resale value, even after a length of time. If you purchase a large party tent for a one-off event, you can make close to what you paid for it, fairly quickly. Save money on hiring by buying and selling it on once you’re done, but you don't strictly need to. You could just as easily start a whole new business hiring it out.

A Gala Tent is a home extension or mobile party venue for the future. You’ll never need to pay a venue hire fee again. Friends will come knocking for each and every one of their own events, so…why not recoup your money by hiring it out in the local area? You might well have just set yourself on the path to financial freedom. If you’re the entrepreneurial type, then why not go and give our MD Jason Mace’s book Event Industry Boss: in the Event Industry a look.

All of the above is absolutely possible, so you won’t just end up with a cheap marquee, you’ll end up with a profitable marquee!
