Gazebos for Festivals & Outdoor Events
From muddy music fields to sun-soaked food festivals, Gala Tent gazebos are a trusted sight across the UK’s busiest events. Built for traders, caterers, organisers, and sponsors, they combine speed, strength, and visibility — the perfect formula for festival success.
Why Gazebos Work at Festivals
Festival life is unpredictable. Weather changes fast, access is tight, and time on site is limited. Gala Tent pop-up gazebos solve all three problems. They’re compact to transport, quick to erect, and engineered to handle the elements — giving you instant shelter without the stress.
Whether you’re running a bar, selling merchandise, managing admissions, or providing first aid cover, a sturdy gazebo creates a professional, branded space that works just as hard as your team.


Popular Festival Uses
Trade Stalls & Food Vendors – Provide quick cover for stock, staff, and customers.
Bars & Drink Stations – Serve safely with waterproof, fire-rated covers.
Ticketing & Entry Points – Keep queues organised under reliable shelter.
Information Booths & Help Desks – Easy to find, clear to brand.
First Aid & Welfare Stations – Offer shade, comfort, and privacy for public care.
Crew Bases & Equipment Points – Portable, professional setups for event teams.
Across Glastonbury fields, seafront fairs, and community weekends, Gala Tent gazebos have earned their reputation for durability and ease.

Choosing the Right Gazebo for a Festival
The right choice depends on your setup and how often you use it:
Gala Shade Pro 40 – Perfect for traders and food vendors who need strength and speed in equal measure.
Gala Shade Pro 50 – Designed for frequent or commercial use, with thicker aluminium and profile joints for heavy-duty reliability.
Gala Shade Pro 60 – The strongest pop-up gazebo in the UK; built for large activations, bars, and professional festival contractors.
Each model includes waterproof, fire-retardant canopies and can be accessorised with sidewalls, anchoring kits, and custom-printed branding.
Branding & Accessories
Festivals are visual. A plain shelter does the job — but a printed gazebo sells your presence. Add full-colour canopies, branded valances, and sidewalls to promote your name, logo, and sponsors.
Pair your gazebo with marquee weights, LED lighting, and Swisstrax modular flooring for a setup that looks sharp and performs in any condition. We also offer banner wraps and printed table covers for cohesive event presentation.

FAQs
What size gazebo is best for festivals?
A 3 × 3 m or 3 × 4.5 m gazebo suits most traders and bars. Larger setups like 4 × 8 m are ideal for bigger activations or catering spaces.
Are Gala Tent gazebos waterproof?
Yes — all our canopies and sidewalls are fully waterproof, UV-protected, and fire-rated for commercial use.
Can gazebos be branded for sponsors or traders?
Absolutely. Our in-house print team can add your branding directly to canopies, walls, and banners in full colour.
How do I keep my gazebo secure in bad weather?
Use heavy-duty marquee weights, guy ropes, and ground bars. You can’t over-anchor a gazebo — better too much than too little.
Can I connect multiple gazebos together?
Yes. With joining kits and infill panels, you can link gazebos to create larger covered areas or custom footprints.
