If the need arises, we can perform custom fabrication to get exactly the size and style you're looking for with surprisingly short notice. Please view our photo gallery for examples of the various tent styles and complementary accessories.


Frame Tents

Frame tents are frame supported and free standing tents. No interior poles allow for free unobstructed use of space. Frame tents can be anchored by stakes or by weights.

High Peak

Providing the structural characteristics of a frame tent with added height, high peak tents offer a spacious interior. With limited numbers of interior center poles, these tents offer more flexible interior space designs. The High Peak is a tensioned structure designed to withstand adverse weather. Century tents have guy lines and must be anchored to the ground.

Clear Span Structures

Clear Span Structures offer a spacious interior without the intrusion of a center support pole. This versatile tent option can be built around pre-existing features and are engineered for high winds. Clear Span Structures can be transformed to include sidewalls, interior liners and climate control. These tents can be anchored by weights or stakes, depending on the location.

Pole

A traditional and economical choice for a variety of events, the pole tent has a center pole support. From small gatherings to lavish parties, we offer a variety of pole tents and sizes. Pole tents have guy lines and must be anchored to the ground. Most pole tents have square ends; however, we offer round ends in some sizes.

Nautical

Our Stillwater sailcloth tent is in a class all to its own. This nautical themed tent is a great addition to any event. With wood stained center and side poles, rounded ends and translucent tops, the Stillwater is sure to impress. Available in 20ft, 44ft and 57ft widths.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIRED FOR EACH OF THE CHATTANOOGA TENT RENTALS?

A seated dinner with 5' round tables: 15 square ft per person. A seated dinner with 8' round tables: 12 square ft per person. Theater seating: 7 square ft per person. A dance area: 5 square ft per person. A bar area: 100 square ft. Speakers platform: 12 square ft per person. Bandstand: 10 square ft per person plus instruments.

WHAT ARE THE GENERAL RULES OF THUMB FOR THE FOLLOWING?

Banquet Style Seating: When using oblong tables, divide the room area (sq. ft.) by 12. When using round tables, divide the room area (sq. ft.)by 15. These figures are for maximum seating. If space is available for more comfortable seating, allow an extra 2 sq. ft. per person.

Classroom Style Seating: Divide student seating area (sq. ft.) by 10.

Theater Style Seating: Divide spectator seating area (sq. ft.) by 7.

This method of calculation allows for chair and passage aisles. It does not allow for problems caused by wide traffic aisles, location of columns, service doors or unique room shapes. It is useful for quick, general approximations. Please feel free to call one of our Chattanooga event rentals professionals to help you determine the best style and size for your event.

HOW LONG IS MY CHATTANOOGA TENT RENTALS PERIOD?

Our tent rental period for tents is the same for one day or one week. Just let us know how many days before the event you would like us to install.

DOES IT COST MORE FOR INSTALL OR DISMANTLE ON WEEKENDS?

Yes. There are additional charges for install/dismantle outside of normal business hours.

HOW ARE TABLETOP ITEMS RENTED? AS GROUPED SETS OR INDIVIDUAL PIECES?”

For Chattanooga event & tent rentals, tabletop items such as china, glassware, and flatware are made available individually, rather than in sets. So, we ask that a client specify which forks or knives or spoons they like, as opposed to a whole flatware set. Clients also specify which plates or bowls they would like. As for glassware, we typically sell that by the rack. Our rack sizes range from 16 in a rack to 36 in a rack. I always recommend getting more than you need. You will always have guests that don’t reuse their glass and get a second one.

WHAT CONDITION DO RENTED ITEMS NEED TO BE IN WHEN RETURNED?

All china, glassware, and flatware do not need to be washed by the client. They just need to be scraped of food or rinsed off, if possible. We take away the headache of washing dishes for clients. We also clean all the linens they rent, so they don’t have to worry about washing the linens.

WHAT TABLE SIZES ARE AVAILABLE AND HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN FIT AT CERTAIN TABLES?

Clients are welcome to visit the showroom to discuss this more specifically for your unique situation, but as a general rule, the 6-foot banquet table accommodates 6-8 guests and the 8-foot banquet table works for 8-10 people. The 30-inch round is intended for 2-4 people, the 36-inch table is great for groupings of 4 people at each one, then the 48-inch round table accommodates 6-8 people, and finally, the 60-inch round table typically seats 8-10 people.

DO LINENS COME WITH CHATTANOOGA TABLE RENTALS?

No, linens are rented separately for Chattanooga tent rentals.

WHAT ARE THE CHATTANOOGA TENT RENTALS PRICES?

Pricing really depends on what you need. We are happy to talk about it and provide you with pricing information when we connect to talk about event specifics.

WHAT IF I DON’T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO GET?

Our Chattanooga Tent & Event Solutions events specialists are happy to talk about your event and offer recommendations custom-suited to your specific needs. You can quickly gain a sense of what you need to fulfill the scale and grandeur of your planned event. Bishop said they can also answer event-specific questions that most people do not know, such as what items need to be included in informal vs formal place settings and different setup types. Our experience putting these events together gives us an opportunity to offer our expertise to clients as an added value of getting their business.

WHAT IF I HAVE SOMETHING IN MIND BUT I DON’T SEE IT LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE OR IN YOUR SHOWROOM?

If there are any tent rental items you don’t see listed, Chattanooga Tent & Event Solutions can often sub-rent them from another company. “We never say no and are happy to help our clients find the items they are really wanting for their events,” Bishop said. We also have several other questions answered on our FAQs page of this website.
