Collaborate, Connect and Confer under a SaddleSpan

Thursday 04 July 2013 by Amazing News Editor

To create an effective, impactful conference – you need to think outside the box – provide conference goers with an environment in which they can create ideas, collaborate and be inspired.

Can you achieve this kind of effect in an ordinary conference venue? We don’t think so – to open the door to strategies that will engage members that go way beyond the event itself, create an inspirational conference venue that is unique and motivating by providing a SaddleSpan configuration to stimulate and excite.

With a SaddleSpan you can use the entire roof to project the company logo onto the semi-tensile fabric, instead of using bog standard screens.

Instead of a stage with rows of seating in front of the stage – why not have the stage right in the middle of the venue and arrange the seating so that it goes all the way around the stage.

Don’t send off groups to different rooms, create break-out zones within the structure so that the conference goers aren’t entirely separated but can still connect and bounce ideas off one another.

Create an arresting exhibit as a focal point and to give delegates something to start a conversation with, encouraging them to collaborate, connect and confer.

If you would like some inspiration whilst dreaming up your next conference venue or would like to find out more about the types of structure we can provide, then do not hesitate to get in touch and chat to us about your plans.

Stand Out From the Crowd with a SaddleSpan

Tuesday 02 July 2013 by Amazing News Editor

Stand out from the crowd, and from your competitors, at trade shows and exhibition fairs with a S5000 SaddleSpan canopy.

With the apex of the canopy over 7ft high it towers over ordinary stand covers and it provides a perfect space to advertise your brand with prominent branding space which makes a stunning visual impact.

With the ability to dress, light and brand the canopy, the S5000 SaddleSpan is the ideal canopy for your product launch or trade show exhibit.

To talk to us about how we can make your brand stand out from the crowd, call us now to find how best we can help you.

Bringing the Bar and Stage Together

Tuesday 25 June 2013 by Amazing News Editor

A major element of being at a festival and enjoying the live music is the mad dash from bar to stage and back again. Many people find this a constant chagrin, so why not make things simpler for your festival goers and have the bar as the stage and the stage as the bar – all under one, beautifully structured, roof?

Providing stage covers and bar covers is what we do and our smaller SaddleSpans can comfortably accommodate up to 300-400 people undercover with a 16m bar area to boot.

These structures are semi-tensile which means minimum flap, little noise – just clean and curvaceous lines, drawing in festival goers and giving them everything they could dream of all under one cover.

Simple lighting, decorative touches and you can create the most wonderful and exciting ambience.

For more information on how to create a bar and stage together or for any other inspiring ideas for your event – don’t hesitate to get in touch with our team.

Open Air Screening Event

Thursday 20 June 2013 by Amazing News Editor

Create a stunning corporate event with a real difference and give your clients an unmissable night.

An open air screening is the ultimate in outdoor events and on a balmy summer evening, enthralled in a classic or a cult film, glass of wine in hand – what could possibly be better?

But, what if it rains? Simple, cover your audience with an S5000 SaddleSpan – this marquee is perfect because of its lack of central poles and the 7m high apex clears the screen yet contains the magical atmosphere.

This is a unique experience and one everyone should have a taste of, an evening that is a world away from a faceless multi-screen with sticky carpets and eau du popcorn.

An alfresco movie night, tucked under the SaddleSpan and enthralled by the screen, this is an evening your clients will not forget in a hurry.

For more information about the S5000 SaddleSpan or if you want some inspiring ideas for your next corporate event – do not hesitate to contact us.

Multi-Zone Conference Marquee

Thursday 06 June 2013 by Amazing News Editor

For flexibility and originality consider the S5000 TriSpan multi-zone conference marquee.

What is a S5000 TriSpan?

An S5000 TriSpan is three SaddleSpans build in a clover-leaf formation. This arrangement gives three areas connected by a central stage or focus point.

Why have a multi-zone conference marquee?

For conferences with a large number of delegates (the TriSpan can seat over 1800) it is often impossible to engage all the delegates – especially the ones in the back – but with a TriSpan configuration you can have three smaller areas all focussing on the same point or you can set up three different zones, each having different uses such as a conference area, breakout zone and refreshment area.

What does an S5000 TriSpan look like?

Take a look at this aerial image (click for larger image) and imagine what you can do with this space…

Contact us now if you would like more information on how a multi-zone conference marquee can work for you and your delegates.

Travelling in Style

Tuesday 04 June 2013 by Amazing News Editor

Last month we were at the Olympic Park for the UEFA Champions Festival where one of our S5000 TriSpans was being used.

It was a fantastic event but was noteworthy for another landmark occasion. It was the first time our crew travelled from our HQ in Gloucestershire in The Amazing Tent Company’s latest addition to the fleet – our new VW Amarok!

When describing the Amarok, VW have this to say: “The combination of style and functionality means the Amarok doesn’t just do the business, it looks it too“.

Sounds rather like our SaddleSpans doesn’t it? It certainly describes the ATC crew!

The Arco 10

Tuesday 28 May 2013 by Amazing News Editor

There is another structure in our armoury that we would like to introduce to you – the Arco 10.

The Arco 10, like our SaddleSpans, is an eye-catching structure.  The fabric is semi-tensile so the roof does not flap about and, for what is fundamentally a simple design, it looks curvaceous and minimal, fulfilling the need for shelter without taking away from the main attraction inside.

The Arco 10 comes in at 10m x 10m, can be staked or ballasted (it only requires 500kg of ballast at each corner) meaning it can be erected on hard or soft surfaces with ease.

The whole structure is tidy, functional, easy to brand and is absolutely perfect for experiential marketing & roadshows.

If you would like more information about the Arco 10 please give us a call and find out what this little beauty can do for you.

The Arco 10 is perfect for roadshows
