Can You Use a Marquee in Cold Weather?

The short answer is yes! Typically, when people think of marquees, they often imagine summer weddings, corporate events, and outdoor festivals.

However, the modern marquee structures supplied by Fews can be used for far more than fair-weather events. With the right specification, a marquee can be used comfortably throughout the colder months, providing a warm, secure, and functional space for corporate events, hospitality suites, wedding venues and even temporary classrooms and gymnasiums.

Fews’ high-quality marquees are engineered to withstand challenging weather conditions, making them an excellent year-round solution. One of the biggest advantages is the ability to transform a marquee into a robust semi-permanent structure by incorporating some elements from a range of features.

Insulated Hard Walling

Hard walling is one of the most effective upgrades for cold-weather use. Unlike PVC walling, insulated hard wall panels provide increased protection against wind, rain, and low temperatures while also enhancing security.

This creates a space that feels much closer to a conventional building, making it ideal for long-term installations, especially during winter months.

Glazing

Natural light does not need to be sacrificed in winter. Glazed windows and doors enhance the appearance of the marquee while allowing daylight to enter, reducing the enclosed feeling often associated with temporary structures.

Level Cassette Floors

For maximum stability and comfort, level cassette floors provide a solid, even surface, like the floor of a permanent building. These flooring systems eliminate uneven ground, and create a safe foundation for furniture, equipment, and heavy foot traffic.
