Tent hire in Nantes

Our catalogue covers every format, from the small private reception to the large public event. On the prestige reception side: glass marquee and cathedral glass marquee for signature events, orangery for grand-style weddings, marquee from 5 to 20 m wide (up to several hundred m²), nomadic stretch tent (also called Berber tent) from 50 to over 500 m², transparent crystal tent, silhouette tent (sailcloth), bamboo marquee, reception tipi, velum tent and arched tent. On the modular and technical side: pagoda tents from 3×3 m to 6×12 m, pop-up gazebos, folding tents, rooftop tents, decked-platform structures, canopies, as well as demountable halls, storage tents and large-span structures for B2B uses. Each configuration is sized according to the number of guests (from 20 to over 2,000 people) and the site constraints.

Yes. All our services in Nantes include delivery, setup by a team of professional technicians and takedown at the end of the event. The quote breaks down these three items separately for a clear reading. Each step is planned in advance with your reception venue and your other providers (caterer, decorator, florist) to respect the timing on the day and limit the impact on the site.

The price depends on the floor area, the type of structure, the hire duration and the options chosen (flooring, lighting, heating, interior lining, transparent walls). As a rough guide, expect between 15 and 40 € excl. VAT per m² for the installed structure depending on the range. A private event of 80 to 120 people usually sits between 2,000 and 5,500 €, a corporate project of 150 to 250 people between 4,500 and 12,000 €, and a large festival-type event can exceed 15,000 €. We send a detailed line-by-line response within 24 h for a complete view of the costs.

For an event of 100 guests in Nantes, the usual ranges are: 1,800 to 3,800 € for a standing cocktail reception (80-110 m²), 2,500 to 6,000 € for a seated meal under a reception marquee (120-150 m²), 3,500 to 8,000 € with a dance floor and bar (150-180 m²), and 4,000 to 10,000 € for a premium transparent tent such as a crystal tent. The price generally includes structure, transport, setup and takedown. The options (wooden flooring, lighting, heating, fabric lining) are quoted separately.

For a wedding of 100 guests, the floor area depends on the reception format: standing cocktail 80 to 110 m², seated meal 120 to 150 m², meal with dance floor and bar 150 to 180 m², and premium configuration with a lounge 180 to 220 m². A marquee of 10×15 m or 10×18 m covers most standard configurations. To confirm the area, we draw up a layout plan with tables, service flows, DJ, bar and technical areas before signing the quote — it is the most reliable method to avoid under-sizing.

Capacity depends on the floor area and the chosen format. Benchmarks: standing cocktail ≈ 0.8 m² per guest, seated dinner ≈ 1 m² per person, seated dinner with a dance floor 1.3 to 1.8 m² per person. Our structures cover from 20 guests (6×6 m pagoda, intimate tipi) to over 2,000 people (40 m wide large-span structure, connected modules). For very large capacities, several tents can be assembled in a row or in an L shape to create distinct areas (cocktail, dinner, dancing).
