Universities

Increasingly popular at University events, our structures are used as main stages, bar and food areas, dance tents, lounge areas and elegant spaces for graduation ceremonies.

Due to their low impact and minimal damage to any lawns they are favoured by both the student organisers and the ground staff. They are also relatively quick to install and dismantle which minimises disruption within the Colleges.
