We’ve recently completed a number of premium stretch tent installations in Killarney, working with some of the area’s best-known hospitality venues ahead of the 2026 wedding and tourism season.
These projects included:
A new 10x15m stretch tent installation for the Great Southern Hotel
A 10x12m stretch tent outdoor reception area for The Brehon Hotel
A 10x7.5m courtyard covering for J.M. Reidy’s Bar & Restaurant
Together, these installations highlight the growing demand for stylish, weatherproof outdoor spaces across Ireland’s hospitality, wedding and tourism industries.
Outdoor Hospitality Spaces Are Growing Across Killarney
Killarney continues to be one of Ireland’s leading destinations for weddings, tourism and hospitality, with hotels, venues and restaurants increasingly investing in premium outdoor spaces for guests.
Stretch tents have become a popular solution because they allow venues to:
Expand outdoor capacity
Create weatherproof reception areas
Improve customer experience
Host outdoor weddings and events
Generate additional year-round revenue
Unlike traditional marquees or fixed structures, stretch tents provide a more open, modern and visually striking environment that works naturally with existing outdoor spaces.
Great Southern Hotel – 10x15m Stretch Tent for the 2026 Wedding Season
The Great Southern Hotel recently invested in a new 10x15m stretch tent to enhance its outdoor wedding offering ahead of the 2026 season.
Wedding venues across Ireland are increasingly using stretch tents to create elegant outdoor ceremony and reception spaces while maintaining protection from Irish weather conditions.
The flexible design of the stretch tent allows the venue to create:
Outdoor drinks reception areas
Covered wedding dining spaces
Garden ceremony setups
Flexible event layouts throughout the season
The installation adds another premium outdoor feature to one of Killarney’s most recognised wedding destinations.
The Brehon Hotel – Outdoor Reception Stretch Tent Installation
We also completed a 10x12m stretch tent installation for The Brehon Hotel, creating a stylish covered outdoor reception area for guests.
For hotels and hospitality venues, stretch tents provide a flexible and modern alternative to more traditional outdoor structures.
This installation was designed to:
Create a welcoming guest reception space
Extend the use of outdoor areas throughout the year
Provide shelter while maintaining an open atmosphere
Complement the hotel’s existing surroundings
Stretch tents are particularly effective for hospitality venues because they can adapt to changing guest numbers, events and seasonal use.
J.M. Reidy’s – Courtyard Stretch Tent Covering
At J.M. Reidy’s Bar & Restaurant, we installed a 10x7.5m stretch tent courtyard covering designed to create a more functional and comfortable outdoor hospitality space.
Courtyard and beer garden coverings are becoming increasingly important for pubs and restaurants across Ireland, allowing businesses to maximise outdoor seating while protecting guests from changing weather conditions.
Stretch tents provide:
Flexible outdoor dining spaces
Additional customer capacity
Year-round usability
A more premium customer experience
Modern visual appeal for hospitality venues
The adaptability of stretch tents makes them ideal for courtyards and existing outdoor layouts where more rigid structures may not suit the space.
Why Stretch Tents Work So Well for Hotels, Venues & Hospitality Businesses
Stretch tents are now widely used across Ireland by:
Wedding venues
Hotels and resorts
Restaurants and bars
Outdoor event venues
Tourism and hospitality businesses
Their popularity continues to grow because they offer:
Flexible layouts for different uses
Weather protection for Irish conditions
Modern and visually striking design
Adaptability for both temporary and permanent installations
