Please refer to dimensions in description for approximate tent size and your contract for any added accessories.

Tents over 900 square feet are considered a temporary structure in Virginia and require a building permit, a fire inspection, fire extinguishers, and lighted exit signs. Generally, we handle this for you, and include the additional costs as a line item on your contract. Additional tent accessories, including sidewalls, perimeter lighting, zig-zag bistro lighting, catering lights, fans, and tent heaters are available as upgrades to your tent rental.
