Every summer, the town of Carndonagh in County Donegal comes alive for its annual Live in the Marquee street festival, bringing together the local community and visitors for live music, entertainment and celebrations.
For this year's event, Stretch Tents Ireland supplied and installed a 40x10m white stretch tent, complete with a professional sound system, creating the main venue for live performances throughout the festival.
Projects like this Carndonagh stretch tent installation demonstrate how stretch tents can transform public spaces into professional event venues while maintaining the open atmosphere that makes community festivals so special.
A Large-Scale Festival Structure Designed for Live Entertainment
Unlike traditional temporary structures, stretch tents create an open and visually impressive venue that enhances both the audience experience and the overall look of the event.
The 40x10m stretch tent provided a spacious covered area suitable for:
Live music performances
Community entertainment
Festival seating areas
Hospitality spaces
Evening events
Its flexible design allowed the structure to work naturally within the town while providing reliable shelter from changing Irish weather.
Professional Sound Equipment for Outdoor Events
Alongside the stretch tent installation, we also supplied a professional sound system to support live performances throughout the festival.
Providing both structures and event equipment allows organisers to simplify planning while ensuring every element works together seamlessly.
Our event services include:
Professional sound systems
Stretch tent hire
Hard flooring
Festoon lighting
Event lighting
Complete festival infrastructure
Whether it's a local street festival or a large outdoor concert, combining these services creates a better experience for organisers, performers and audiences alike.
Why Stretch Tents Are Perfect for Street Festivals
Street festivals present unique challenges.
Organisers need event structures that are:
✔ Fast to install
✔ Flexible around existing streets and public spaces
✔ Suitable for large visitor numbers
✔ Weather resistant
✔ Visually impressive
Stretch tents provide all of these benefits while creating an open and welcoming environment that encourages people to gather, relax and enjoy the event.
Their flowing design helps create a more modern and inviting festival atmosphere compared to traditional marquees.
