Gala Tent Reviews

Thankyou so much for our new 8x4 marquee, it is fantastic, we use it for events and large farmers markets for our traditional food business in dorset, thanks again for a great marquee

we are absolutely thrilled with your customer service, the tent and the package we received.

This is just a note to say that my company bought 3 tents back in october and november of last year which we have used very successfully , but the one that I want to tell you about is the 6 by 8 metre Gala Tent. We erected it in the early days of last November not knowing that the worst storms in years were on their way. It was erected at the front of our large farmshop which is based in a busy garden centre as a way to give us more selling space during the build up to christmas , then the storms started to rage. The tent became the talking point for many of our customers all betting that the next storm would be the one to finally bring it down, the longer it stayed up the more people were amazed that it was still standing. It is now nearly the end of February 2014 and it has taken everything that the cornish weather has had to throw at it , even with us being very near to the coast, it is still standing. The only damage occurred on the very last major storm which resulted in some small minor tearing but the frame is as good today as it was when we first erected it. It is down to the quality of the product that this is the case and it has amazed the many 1000's of customers that we have had since we first erected it. Our immediate area has suffered some terrible flooding and storm damage but some things have stood up to the worst storms in living memory. The tent has been used everyday as it has become the main entrance to the shop, can anyone beat that.

Thank you very much for the printing on our gazebo canopy. It arrived today and looks very good.

It was a pleasure to talk to you. I would like to thank Gala Tent for the excellent customer service you provide.

Your salesperson was very knowledgable about the product,I was told I could book a delivery date of my choice even though it was a few weeks away. The tent arrived by courier on the arranged day, it was extremely well packed and on opening the boxes everything was in order. As with anything ordered on the internet you can never be 100% sure what you will receive,but I can honestly say this is a very impressive product everything is very well made.Thank you for excellent service

Hi Just a quick note to say how impressive the portable dance floor is. I have a restaurant and we have Tribute acts each month and customers hire out the room for functions. I have perfected the putting away time to under ten mins same with assembly. The black and white squares can be put into all sorts of patterns. Even when a drink is spilt on it it does not become slippy. An excellent product all round.

Thank you so much, the service I have received from you all is 100%!

Many thanks,the order was delivered this morning - fantastic service as usual!

Many thanks, really appreciated.Excellent product and excellent customer service!

I received my 6x3 pro50 gazebo today, I am very pleased with the quality and the speed in which it was delivered Thanks, Jay

At the beginning of the year I purchased the Gala Shade Compact. I had been looking for a pop up gazebo to use at VW shows and meets. It needed to fit under the bed of my camper van and be quick and easy to put up. I've had a few run of the mill pop up gazebos, all of which lasted a few shows before the canopy got ripped or the frame was bent with the wind.The gala shade compact packs down just small enough to fit under the bed as well as in the boot of my car. Although it is heavier than i expected, the carry bag has wheels to help with moving it around and a large pocket on the front for pegs and tie down straps. There is also enough room in the top of the bag for the canopy and all 4 side panels if folded neatly. This means no mucky marks or damage from the ground pegs by keeping them all in the front pocket. When i first unpacked the compact, i was a little sceptical about its quality, but once set up it's leagues apart from the cheap supermarket gazebos. Opening the the frame is easy enough for 1 or 2 people, a matter of seconds with 4 people. The canopy then throws over the frame, pulls down over the corners and attaches to velcro at each corner. The corners then lock into place which holds the canopy snug and firms up the whole frame. The legs can be locked in place at various heights to make attaching the side panels easy to do. The side panels are my favourite part of the compact. With cheaper gazebos you have to carefully line up velcro, constantly sticking and unsticking it to get the sides hung properly. This isn't the case with this. Each side panel has a metal hook on the top 2 corners, allowing it to be hung in seconds. This holds the panel in place while you fasten a number of toggles at the top and velcro straps around the legs. The side panels then zip together, holding them firmly in place and stopping any draughts getting in. After the first few times, the whole thing only takes 2 people about 15 minutes to put up and the longest part of taking it down is folding the canopy. Ratchet tie down kits make the whole gazebo very sturdy in the wind and are in my opinion, an essential purchase to go with the compact. I have now had it almost a year and it has stood up to any weather thrown at it. While Gala tent advise not to leave it up in strong winds, i have found that if set up properly, pegged down and strapped down in all 4 corners with the ratchet tie down kits, it doesn’t move. At a recent VW show, many of the traders marquees had been turned inside out overnight but this was still standing. Overall i am very happy with my purchase. The Gala shade Compact is the cheapest option available and yet has exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a heavy duty marquee, this is not the one for you. But if you want a lightweight, robust canopy to throw in and out of the car at the weekends then i can’t recommend this enough.

Thank you for the prompt delivery, the tent has been erected and looks good
