Seated Dinner or Standing Party?

How your guests spend their time under the tent matters more than the guest count. Seated meals take the most room. Standing crowds fit more people in the same space.

Seated Dinner

Our 60" round tables seat up to 8 guests each, so everyone can talk across the table. Pair them with white padded resin chairs for a dressed-up look.

Casual Cookout

6' tables and white folding chairs work great for family-style seating, and an extra 6' table makes an easy food or gift table.

Standing Crowd

Cocktail tables give guests a spot to set down a drink or plate while they mingle, and take up much less room than seated tables.

Tables and chairs rent for the same price for up to 24 hours. They're delivered stacked, and our crew can set them out for you for $1 more per table or chair. Read more in New in Our Rentals: Round Tables, Cocktail Tables & White Padded Resin Chairs, or browse all Tents, Tables & Chairs.

Tent Questions

How many people fit under a 20x30 tent?

It depends on the setup. As a rough guide, plan on about 48 guests seated at 60" round tables, about 60 at 6' tables, or about 75 standing. Food, drink and gift tables take up room too, so use the calculator above for your exact party.

How much space do I need for the tent?

The tent is 30 by 20 feet. Plan on a flat, open area about 35 by 25 feet, with 17 feet of clearance overhead, so check for low tree branches before you book.

Do you set up the tent?

Yes. Our team delivers the tent and sets it up for you, along with any inflatables you rent.

Will you set out the tables and chairs?

Tables and chairs are delivered stacked. If you'd like our crew to set them out and stack them back up after your event, it's $1 more per table or chair.

How long can I keep tables and chairs?

Tables and chairs are the same price for up to 24 hours.

Does the tent need power?

No. The tent doesn't need an outlet. Inflatables still need a standard outlet within 100 feet.

What if it rains?

You can reschedule your rental because of rain at no extra cost, as long as you give us at least 24 hours' notice.
