How to choose the right size tent

STEP 1: DETERMINE TOTAL GUESTS EXPECTED AT YOUR EVENT

STEP 2: DETERMINE WHAT TYPE OF EVENT

Stand Up Cocktail Style: 6 sq.ft per person

Cocktail Style w/ some seating: 8 sq.ft per person

Seated in Rows, Theater Style: 8 sq.ft per person

Seated Dinner @ 8' Banquets: 10 sq.ft per person

Seated Dinner @ 5' Rounds: 12 sq.ft per person

STEP 3: CONSIDER ADDITIONAL STATIONS:

Dance Floor* 5 sq.ft per person

Musicians/Band 3 piece: 100 sq.ft

Musicians/Band 5 piece: 250 sq.ft

Musicians/Band 7 piece: 300 sq.ft

DJ Table w speakers: 200 sq.ft

Food Buffet Lines: 100 sq.ft per 50 guests

*Generally, never more than 50% of the people dance at any time. Each couple requires about nine square feet. If you have a party for 200 people (100 couples), 50 couples will be the maximum number dancing.

STEP 4: ADD ALL SQUARE FOOTAGES FROM ABOVE STEPS TO DETERMINE TOTAL SQUARE FEET NEEDED

Standard Tent Sizes and Square Footage. (Multipy sides to determine square footage.)

10x20' =200 sq.ft.

20x20 = 400 sq.ft.

20x30' = 600 sq.ft.

20x40' = 800 sq.ft

20x60' = 1200 sq.ft.

40x40' = 1600 sq.ft
