Frequently asked questions aboutTent and Marquee Rental

What is the right tent size for my event?

The size of the tent depends on the number of guests, the type of event, and the desired layout (dance floor, buffet, stage, etc.). As a general rule, plan for 1 to 1.5 m² per seated guest and around 0.7 m² per person for a cocktail. The Atawa team helps you determine the ideal configuration based on your venue layout.

What type of tent should I choose for a wedding?

For a wedding, the choice depends on the desired atmosphere: a stretch tent for a natural and bohemian style, a crystal tent for an elegant and bright celebration, or a bamboo marquee for a more eco-friendly ambiance. Atawa helps you choose according to your vision and venue setting.

How far in advance should I book a tent for a wedding or corporate event?

Ideally, your booking should be made 6 to 9 months before the event, especially during peak season (May – September). This ensures the availability of the desired equipment and allows time to coordinate logistics and permits.

How much does it cost to rent a reception tent?

The cost depends on the tent model, surface area, rental duration, and additional services (lighting, flooring, furniture, décor, etc.). Atawa offers transparent quotes tailored to your needs and budget.

What is the most affordable tent option?

The most affordable tents are usually pagoda tents, often used as extensions of a main area such as a caterer’s space or lounge. Atawa provides various options to suit your event and budget without compromising on quality.

Can a tent be installed on any type of ground (grass, gravel, terrace, sand)?

Yes, Atawa tents can be installed on most surfaces thanks to specific anchoring or ballast systems. Our technical teams ensure safe and stable installation on all types of terrain.

Do I need a permit or authorization to install a reception tent?

Depending on the tent size and rental duration, a city permit may be required. Atawa assists you with these administrative steps and provides the necessary technical documents (plans, safety certificates, etc.).

How are Atawa structures assembled and dismantled?

All installations are carried out by Atawa’s professional teams, following safety and site regulations. The setup and dismantling schedule is defined in advance to ensure a smooth and stress-free organization.

Can a reception tent be heated or air-conditioned?

Yes, heating and air-conditioning systems can be integrated into your tent depending on the season. Atawa offers discreet, efficient equipment to ensure guest comfort at any time of year.

How can I customize the interior decoration of the tent (lighting, furniture, atmosphere)?

Atawa provides a wide range of decoration options — lighting, furniture, staging, and table settings. Our designers help you create a coherent and elegant atmosphere that reflects your event’s identity.

What materials are the tent fabrics made of and what are their properties?

Atawa tent fabrics are made from PVC tarpaulin or polyester canvas, both waterproof and UV-resistant. These materials offer excellent durability, weather protection, and a refined aesthetic suitable for all types of events.

What wind speed can the tent withstand?

Atawa tents are designed to withstand winds up to 70 km/h, depending on the model and installation conditions. Their reinforced structure ensures stability and safety for all outdoor events.

Are there additional fees (transport, setup, dismantling)?

Setup and dismantling are included in Atawa’s services. However, delivery fees may apply depending on the selected materials and event location. A detailed and transparent quote is always provided in advance.

Can I install the tent myself?

No, Atawa tents must be installed by our professional teams to ensure safety and structural stability. Setup and dismantling are fully managed by our qualified technicians.

Is insurance included with the tent rental?

Yes, every Atawa rental includes insurance coverage for material damage during the event. This included protection guarantees peace of mind.

What warranty do you offer on the tent structure?

Atawa tent structures come with a warranty that ensures durability and safety. Each tent is regularly inspected and maintained to meet the highest quality standards.

What types of ground are compatible with tents (grass, concrete, sand)?

Atawa tents can be set up on all surfaces — grass, concrete, gravel, or sand. Our teams secure proper anchoring for perfect stability regardless of the terrain.

Are there height restrictions for tents in urban areas?

Yes, some urban areas impose height limits. Atawa takes into account urban planning regulations and authorized structure heights to ensure compliance and a visually balanced setup.

Is there a lot of noise inside or outside the tent?

Atawa tents offer good acoustic insulation but are not completely soundproof. External noise is reduced by thick fabrics and a reinforced frame. For optimal soundproofing, we can provide acoustic curtains or partitions depending on your event type.
