Buying a stretch tent

So, you’ve found our Stretch Tent sales page. If you’re considering buying one of these amazing stretch tents, you’re in the right place.

Glorious Gazebos has made huge inroads into this industry over the last 11 years. Such is our passion for these tents that our director visits South Africa every year — the birthplace of the Stretch Tent. While there, he visits the three main manufacturers, receives world-class training from the best riggers in the world, reviews and tests new designs, and enjoys some top-tier hospitality.

We may not be the biggest in the industry, but we believe we’re among the most knowledgeable and experienced. Our director personally handles every stretch tent sale — whether it’s a standard off-the-shelf size or a custom-designed tent made to fit a specific space.

Owning a stretch tent is a smart investment. The canvas is designed for long-term exposure to our great British weather. Pubs, venues, glamping sites, schools, universities, and clubs can all benefit from having an off-the-shelf or custom stretch tent rigged on-site.

Perhaps you have a dead or awkward space at your venue? Contact us today and have a chat with our director, Brett, about the options and possibilities available to you.

Why buy from us?

Glorious gazebos specialise in the manufacture, design and installation of bespoke custom fit and off the shelf sized stretch tents. Over the years we have formed a fantastic relationship with who we currently believe are the worlds leading stretch tent manufacturer Homepage – Nomadik Stretch Tents

Nomadik’s Contour Flex Ultra fabric is currently regarded as the best stretch tent fabric on the market. Nomadik holds the patent for this incredible material, so it is not available from any other stretch tent manufacturer.

We are an official reseller, trained and authorised installer for Nomadik — giving you peace of mind that you could potentially own one of the world’s best stretch tents.

Our stretch tents for sale can be purchased in multiple colours, branded, and custom-installed — giving your business an edge over others in your local area. We have the knowledge and experience to ensure you get the right package for your venue. A choice of fixtures and fittings is available to complement the theme of your venue, including locally sourced Kent chestnut wooden poles, eucalyptus poles, and aluminium poles. Pole socks, side walls, bespoke metalwork, and other essentials like heating and lighting can all be added to your package — ensuring your venue stands out from the competition.

Caring and protecting your investment

Here at Glorious Gazebos, we pride ourselves on maintaining a flawless reputation within our industry, we aim to give and offer the best service to our clients which is why many of our customers use us year after year for our rental tents. We forge long lasting relationships with our clients with many of our new clients coming to us from a recommendation or simple word of mouth advertising. We are always here and happy to take a call regarding any aspect of your stretch tent.

Despite the expected longevity of our stretch tents every investment needs a little care and attention from time to time. After care is paramount if you are to get the return on your investment, which is why we at glorious gazebos offer such packages from regular safety checks to the summer or winter de-rig, cleaning and storage of the tent during the off season.

Care Packages

Stretch tents are tensile structures that rely on secure anchoring and precise installation to withstand the challenges of the British weather. While some clients may prefer to carry out their own visual and physical inspections, we also offer this as a service for your convenience. Our care packages can be tailored to suit your venue’s specific needs—please see below for examples of what we offer. For the best results, we recommend getting in touch so we can create a custom package perfectly suited to your location.

Safety package
We offer monthly, quarterly and yearly inspections where we visit the tent to ensure all the ropes are correctly tensioned and checked for damage. The price and frequency depends on the size of the tent, its location and frequency of the inspection.

Rig and de-rig package
This is our most popular package as every venue is different requiring the tent in situ for different periods of time or different seasons. For example, a small village pub with a stretch tent rigged over a courtyard would usually only require the tent over the winter months to boost footfall and dining space whereas a large pub with a large garden may simply want the tent in position over the summer months to offer a shaded area for dinners and drinkers. This package often includes us taking the tent away for a seasonal clean and storage over the off season. Again, the price of this package is tailored to your requirements.

Hire back package
This is a great option for our clients, make your tent work/earn for you when not in use. Many of our managed tents are down in storage over the busy summer months so why not rent them back to us when we are short of tents. Standard size tents are best for this option but in some cases a custom tent may work. Please don’t hesitate to enquire.

Care package summary
To get the maximum return on your investment it is essential to look after and maintain your stretch tent. Traffic pollution, bird faeces, dust and dirt can all damage your tent over time, so to extend the longevity of your tent it makes sense and good business practise to keep it in good condition.
