They worked with me on timings, sorted me quotes and worked with me on what I wanted and were so friendly. Demi and the team were so professional, and the marquee build team were quick and so helpful. Absolutely amazing experience, cannot reccomend them enough for marquee hire! We got a 12 round marquee and it was perfect for what we wanted. Carpet was stunning, so many choices, and they let me keep a chunk to re-do the car - wonderful wedding memories!!Posted on Google Mark Stevens (Markoodle)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hired Abracadabra for a birthday party in our garden in Northallerton about 80 guests. I'd never hired a marquee before and honestly had no idea where to start, but from the moment I called them they made the whole thing so easy. They advised on the best size and layout, and were completely upfront about pricing. On the day, the lads turned up on time, were friendly and had it all up in no time. The marquee itself looked stunning! I cannot recommend them enough. If you're thinking about marquee hire in Yorkshire for any kind of celebration, just book them. You won't regret it.Posted on Google lindsey BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Abracadabra provided the most fabulous framed marquee for our party. The quality exceeded our expectations - it was absolutely beautiful, with elegant linings and a perfectly laid carpet in our choice of colour The team worked professionally, efficiently and checked with me if there were any decisions to be made during construction. The take down was equally smooth. I would highly recommend Michael, Scott, Demi and the team.Posted on Google Jon HillTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Abracadabra Marquees were brilliant! We used them recently for our family party/21st party. Scott and his team were all really helpful, great to deal with, organised, professional, flexible, efficient, fairly priced and gave us a good quality marquee with tables & chairs, lighting, carpets etc. They gave advice on what would look good, worked within our budget and were 100% reliable. I have no hesitation in recommending them. PS. Its not the best photo, doesn't do justice to the quality of the marquee but gives you some idea.Posted on Google Lucy ListerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Scott and his team recently provided a marquee for our wedding last month. They were really good to work with via email, phone calls and face to face. The build team were super quick and efficient leaving us plenty of time to decorate the marquee.

Our core service areas include nearby towns such as York, Thirsk, Richmond, Bedale, Harrogate, Darlington, Middlesbrough and surrounding villages. Whether your event is in a countryside field, private estate, or your own back garden, we can deliver and install your marquee safely and efficiently. If you’re unsure whether your location is within range, just give us a call, we’re happy to provide a quick confirmation and quote for transport costs. Our team is highly experienced in setting up marquees in a wide variety of environments, including uneven terrain, sloped gardens, or hardstanding areas. Wherever your event is, our mission is to create a stunning and functional marquee space that fits seamlessly into your chosen setting. We bring the same care and service wherever we go.
We recommend booking your marquee as early as possible, especially if your event is during peak season (May to September) when demand is high. For weddings and large private events, securing your marquee 6 to 12 months in advance gives you the best chance of getting your preferred date and package. That said, we’re always happy to accommodate last-minute bookings when availability allows, so it’s worth reaching out even if your date is coming up soon. Our team can move quickly and efficiently, offering site visits and quotes on short notice where needed. Early booking also allows us to help you plan layout options, furniture selections, and any extras like catering spaces or power supply. Plus, it gives you time to customise elements such as lighting schemes or carpet colours. Planning ahead ensures peace of mind and lets us tailor everything to your vision without time pressure.
The size of marquee you’ll need depends on several factors including your number of guests, seating arrangements, and what kind of event you’re hosting, from intimate garden spaces to large open fields. For example, a wedding with seated dining, a dance floor, and entertainment will require more space than a standing drinks reception or garden party. At Abracadabra, we offer a wide range of marquee sizes, from compact 3m-wide options to grand structures over 200m in length. A good rule of thumb is to allow around 1.5–2 square metres per seated guest, but we’re happy to help calculate exact dimensions based on your needs. During our planning process, we’ll ask about your guest numbers, preferred layout, and whether you’ll need space for extras like a stage, bar, or catering tent. Once we understand your vision, we’ll recommend the best size and layout to ensure a comfortable, stylish, and functional marquee for your event.
Yes, our marquees are designed to withstand a wide range of British weather conditions. Whether it’s rain, wind, or chilly temperatures, we can ensure your guests stay warm, dry, and comfortable inside. Our framed marquees are especially popular for winter or all-season events, as they provide a more rigid structure with strong anchoring and optional solid or clear wall panels. We also offer high-quality flooring, carpeting, and interlocking boarding to keep the interior dry and level, even if the ground is wet outside. For colder months or unpredictable weather, we recommend adding our diesel heaters or pyramid heaters to maintain a cosy atmosphere. We also offer entrance porches and covered walkways to create a seamless transition between your marquee and other event spaces. If you’re unsure about your event location or the time of year, we’re happy to advise on the best marquee style and weather-proofing options for peace of mind.
Our Yorkshire marquee hire packages are designed to be all-inclusive and stress-free. A standard hire typically includes the marquee structure itself, a brand new carpet in your choice of colour, interlocking boarded flooring, and your preferred lighting (festoon, chandeliers, or wagon wheels). We also include tables, Chiavari chairs with ivory seat pads, and a dance floor in either black and white or parquet finish. Set-up, dismantling, and a damage waiver are all part of the package, so there are no hidden surprises. The only variable cost is transport, which is calculated based on your venue location. We also offer a wide range of optional extras — including catering tents, heaters, luxury toilets, generators, and more — so you can customise your package based on your event’s unique needs. If none of our pre-designed packages quite fit your vision, we’re happy to create a bespoke setup just for you.
