The 20x80 West Coast Frame Tent gives rental operators 1600 sq ft of commercial-grade covered space enough for 14-16 vendor stations, a seated dinner of 160, or a cocktail reception for 229+ guests. With both 7' and 8' eave height options, you can match the tent profile to your venue requirements and event type. The 8' eave option adds headroom and a more spacious feel for upscale events.
The 2" anodized aluminum West Coast Frame system goes up on any surface without a center pole interrupting the interior. The 16 oz / 540 gsm PVC blockout vinyl top handles sun, heat, and rain, keeping your guests and vendors protected through full-day and multi-day events. Single Tube and Double Tube rafter options are available to match your load and permit requirements.
