Cotswold Marquees:
Where Innovation Meets Tradition
Cotswold Marquee Manufacturing isn't your average marquee company.
We are a passionate team of designers, engineers, and craftspeople dedicated to pushing the boundaries of temporary event structures. Our commitment goes beyond simply providing marquees; we are driven to create unforgettable event experiences.
From Humble Hire to Bespoke Manufacturing
Our story began in 1987 with a single marquee and a vision for more. Operating as 'Stour Marquees,' we started by offering traditional marquees for hire. But our passion was in creating high-quality structures, leading us to invest in specialist equipment and relocate to larger facilities in 1996. This marked the birth of Cotswold Marquees Manufacturing.
With this shift, we began crafting our own marquees, utilising PVC fabrication to create more robust and weatherproof solutions. This commitment to quality fueled our growth. By 2003, we expanded again, moving to a larger space with dedicated areas for cutting, welding, and housing our growing fleet.
Over the years, our expertise in PVC fabrication has flourished. We've continuously innovated, expanding our capabilities beyond marquees to include bespoke covers, panelling, and even furniture. Today, we're a leading bespoke marquee manufacturer, offering a complete solution from design and creation to installation and after-sales support.
Our story is one of evolution, driven by a dedication to pushing the boundaries of marquee design and manufacturing. We started with a passion for excellence, and that passion continues to guide us as we create extraordinary event spaces for our clients.

We understand that every event is unique, and your temporary venue should reflect that individuality. That's why we distinguish ourselves through our unparalleled commitment to bespoke design and manufacturing.

Imagine a marquee that seamlessly integrates with your existing venue, or a multi-section structure with designated areas for dining, dancing, and relaxation. Our skilled team of designers and engineers will work hand-in-hand with you to translate your vision into a reality, no matter how intricate. This level of customization ensures your marquee perfectly complements your event's theme and creates a lasting impression on your guests.
