Branded Marquees

The MQ-65 branded marquee is a heavy-duty commercial marquee built on a T6 aluminium frame with 650gsm PVC covers, printed with your branding across the roof and walls.

It is manufactured to order in sizes from 4m x 6m to 6m x 12m for permanent and semi-permanent use, and was originally developed for motorsport paddocks with our specialists at Gala Performance.

Production takes 8 to 12 weeks from design approval. Buy the MQ-65, request a quote or download a brochure. The marquee is the largest of four printed event shelters in the range.

A heavy-duty commercial and industrial marquee

The MQ-65 is an aluminium marquee designed for commercial and industrial use, where the structure stays up for months rather than an afternoon.

The T6 aluminium framework carries reinforced joins and an adjustable tensioning system that keeps every panel taut, and the integrated Keder wall channel gives a clean, watertight finish from roofline to ground.

The 650gsm PVC covers are fully waterproof and UV-resistant. Businesses use it as branded warehousing overflow, showroom and retail installations, staff and customer shelter, and semi-permanent event bases. Our guide to custom printed marquees covers the specification in more detail.

Branded marquee sizes

Four sizes cover most commercial installations, each manufactured to order and printed across roof and walls:

Alternate framework configurations are available if a standard footprint does not fit your site.

Built for long-term branded installations

The MQ-65 is a manufactured-to-order structure specified to your site and your brand. Custom sizing, window panels, doors and internal partitions are built in at manufacture, and full-colour branding prints across roof and wall panels in weatherproof artwork. It is engineered for extended deployment, which is why buyers use it as a permanent marquee or semi-permanent installation rather than a structure that goes up and down each weekend like a branded gazebo might. If you are weighing the two, our guide to which event shelter you need compares them.

Motorsport awnings

In motorsport paddocks the MQ-65 works as a freestanding race awning: a rigid, branded base for the team that stands independently of the truck and holds its footprint across a race weekend or a full season. It was developed for exactly this environment, and the printed roof and walls carry team livery and sponsor artwork in full colour. A 6m x 12m takes a car, the tools and the hospitality in one span.
