Purple and blue party lighting fitted around a marquee frame

Party Marquee Lighting

Hire from £25.

Marquee and gazebo lighting hire

This is the lighting package for a party marquee where the tent itself is already sorted, but the inside still looks a bit bare once the evening starts. It adds colour and low-level atmosphere around the frame rather than trying to turn the marquee into a full stage show.

The photo shows the sort of setup we mean: coloured bulbs clipped around the marquee frame, purple and blue wash lighting, vertical LED bars on the legs and a small warm light fixed near the frame. Depending on the marquee, garden, power and timings, we can hang or position the lighting inside the marquee or outside it for summer parties.

People search for this under a few names: party marquee lighting, gazebo lighting, marquee party lights, event lighting and party lighting rig hire. If you are not sure which wording fits what you need, send a photo of the space with your enquiry and we will work from that.

What it suits

  • Garden parties

    Colour and atmosphere for marquees that would otherwise feel flat after dark.

  • DIY music setups

    A simple lighting rig works well when you have your own playlist, DJ or small PA.

  • Wedding and private-event bars

    Coloured lighting and small bulbs help define the bar or seating area inside a marquee.

  • Pop-up marquees and gazebos

    We can hang lighting across our marquees, with outdoor positioning available for summer parties.

  • Outdoor evening areas

    Lighting can also sit outside the marquee for summer parties, entrances and garden spaces.

  • Corporate outdoor events

    Useful for staff parties, hospitality areas and relaxed evening sections after a daytime event.

What is included

  • Party marquee lighting hire from £25
  • Advice on where to place lights for the marquee, gazebo or garden area
  • Delivery, setup and collection by our own team when hired as part of an event package
  • £5 million public liability insurance as standard
  • Risk assessments and method statements emailed to you or your venue before the event where needed

The exact mix depends on the structure and what else you have on the booking. A small pop-up gazebo might only need a simple colour wash and a few bulbs. A bigger marquee with a bar, seating and a dance area may want festoon lighting, LED strip lights or batten LED lighting adding to the package.

Suitability

  • Indoors on Artificial Grass
  • Indoors on Hard Surface
  • Outdoors on Grass
  • Outdoors on Hard Surface

Tell us where the nearest power is and whether the lighting is going inside the marquee or outside in the garden. That is enough for us to plan the cable run and the setup properly.

If you are building a full outside setup, it often makes sense to add gazebo heaters, black foldable chairs, 6ft tables and cable protectors at the same time.

Delivery and venues

We work from a 25,000 sq ft warehouse in Rotherham, close to the A1, M1 and M18, and we have been supplying event equipment since 1999. Most of the kit on this site is owned in-house, which keeps the booking simpler when you need lighting, furniture, power and games on the same delivery.

The original listing covers South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, the North East, London, Birmingham and Wales, with wider UK delivery available for larger packages. If your marquee is part of a venue event rather than a garden party, we also quote for larger setups at places such as Elsecar Heritage Centre, Yorkshire Event Centre, Newark Showground and Harrogate Convention Centre.

Party Marquee Lighting usually works best as part of a small package. Pair it with festoon lights, strip lights, heaters, cable protection or a pop-up marquee, and get in touch if you want us to suggest a sensible setup for the space.

Hire Party Marquee Lighting

Send your date, venue, marquee size and a rough idea of the mood you want. If you can send a photo of the frame or garden area, even better, because it helps us quote the right lighting rather than guessing.
