Corporate Stretch Tent Hire for the World Without Cows Global Premiere in Dublin
We recently had the pleasure of providing a 10x15m sand stretch tent for the global premiere of World Without Cows at the stunning Pearse Lyons Distillery in Dublin.
The event brought together guests from the worlds of agriculture, business, media and entertainment for the launch of the award-winning documentary.
For this installation, we supplied our 10x15m sand stretch tent together with festoon lighting, creating an additional covered outdoor hospitality space that complemented the historic surroundings of the distillery.
But there was another important element to this project.
We installed new permanent fixing points at the venue, allowing the stretch tent to be installed quickly and efficiently while also making future installations and derigs significantly faster.
A Global Film Premiere in the Heart of Dublin
World Without Cows explores one deceptively simple question:
The documentary examines the role cattle play in food production, climate, nutrition, economies and cultures around the world.
Filmmakers Michelle Michael and Brandon Whitworth travelled across more than 40 locations in 22 countries and five continents, speaking with farmers, scientists, environmental experts and others involved in global food systems.
The Dublin premiere at Pearse Lyons Distillery marked the beginning of the film's global screening tour.
For us, it was fantastic to see one of our stretch tents become part of an event with such an international audience and story.
10x15m Sand Stretch Tent at Pearse Lyons Distillery
For this event we selected one of our 10x15m sand stretch tents.
Sand works particularly well in heritage and natural environments because the softer colour complements its surroundings rather than dominating them.
At Pearse Lyons Distillery, the combination of the sand stretch fabric, historic architecture and warm festoon lighting created an inviting outdoor hospitality space for guests attending the premiere.
The 10x15m is also one of the most versatile sizes in our fleet, providing substantial covered space while remaining flexible enough to work within more challenging venues and existing buildings.
Permanent Fixings – Making Future Installations Faster
One of the most interesting parts of this project wasn't the tent itself.
It was what we installed underneath it.
We fitted new permanent fixing points at Pearse Lyons Distillery, specifically designed to accommodate the stretch tent installation.
Once professionally installed, permanent fixing points can dramatically simplify repeat installations at venues that regularly use stretch tents.
Instead of recreating the anchoring solution for every event, the infrastructure is already there.
That means:
Faster stretch tent installation
Faster derig after the event
Consistent positioning
Cleaner site preparation
Less disruption to the venue
Easier planning for future events
A repeatable outdoor event space
For hotels, distilleries, restaurants, wedding venues and other hospitality businesses that regularly host outdoor events, this can make a huge difference.
Turning Outdoor Space into Repeatable Event Infrastructure
There is an important difference between hiring a tent for one event and designing a venue so that a stretch tent can be installed repeatedly.
Permanent fixing points effectively allow a venue to have an outdoor function space available whenever required, without permanently covering the area.
The stretch tent can be installed for an event and then removed afterwards, returning the outdoor space to its normal use.
When the next function arrives, the established fixing system allows the structure to return quickly.
This can work extremely well for:
Hotels
Distilleries and breweries
Wedding venues
Restaurants
Pubs
Visitor attractions
Corporate venues
Private estates
Outdoor hospitality businesses
Dublin corporate stretch tent hire
It's an approach we're increasingly able to offer alongside our temporary hire installations.
Festoon Lighting for the Evening Event
We also supplied festoon lighting as part of the installation.
Lighting is one of the simplest ways to completely change the atmosphere underneath a stretch tent after dark.
For this event, the warm festoon lighting worked particularly well with the sand-coloured canopy and historic setting, helping create an inviting space for guests as the evening progressed.
Our lighting options can be incorporated into stretch tent installations for weddings, festivals, corporate events and hospitality venues throughout Ireland.
Stretch Tents for Film Premieres, Launches & Corporate Events
Projects like World Without Cows demonstrate how stretch tents can become part of much more than traditional festivals and weddings.
Corporate and media events often require temporary spaces that look premium while also providing practical weather protection.
Stretch tents can be used for:
Film premieres
Product launches
Drinks receptions
Corporate hospitality
Brand activations
Press events
Outdoor screenings
Award ceremonies
VIP areas
Company celebrations
The flexibility of the structures means they can often be incorporated into existing venues where a conventional marquee would be difficult or visually overpowering.
Working With Existing Buildings & Unusual Venues
One of the biggest advantages of stretch tents is their ability to work around existing architecture.
Not every venue has a perfectly flat open field available for an event structure – and often the most interesting locations don't.
Our team regularly installs stretch tents around:
Existing buildings
Courtyards
Trees
Walls
Uneven ground
Streets
Gardens
Hospitality terraces
Permanent wall and ground fixing solutions can provide even greater flexibility where a venue plans to use the structure repeatedly.
The objective is always the same: design the installation around the venue rather than forcing the venue to work around the tent.
Corporate Stretch Tent Hire in Dublin & Across Ireland
Although Stretch Tents Ireland is based in West Cork, our crews install structures nationwide.
Dublin is an important part of our work, with installations ranging from corporate functions and major events to hospitality and private celebrations.
Our corporate event services can include:
Stretch tent hire
Permanent fixing systems
Flooring
Clear and solid walls
Festoon lighting
Event lighting
Sound equipment
Stretch tent sales
Professional installation and derig
From a single 10x15m hospitality structure to large multi-tent event sites, every project is planned around the individual venue and event.
Hire, Purchase or Create a Permanent Setup
Not every client needs the same solution.
For occasional events, hiring a stretch tent normally makes the most sense.
For venues regularly hosting outdoor functions, there are other options.
Permanent fixing points can make repeat hire installations considerably quicker, while businesses wanting a dedicated structure can also purchase their own stretch tent.
As an official QTents partner in Ireland, we supply new stretch tents along with the components required to create professional long-term installations.
Planning a Corporate Event or Outdoor Venue?
The World Without Cows premiere at Pearse Lyons Distillery is a great example of how the right infrastructure can turn an existing outdoor area into a professional event space.
Our 10x15m sand stretch tent, permanent fixing points and festoon lighting created a practical covered hospitality area for a major international film premiere – while also leaving infrastructure in place to make future installations quicker and easier.
If you're planning a corporate event, launch, hospitality project or outdoor venue anywhere in Ireland, our team can help design a solution around your space.
World Without Cows – Dublin Global Premiere
We're delighted that Stretch Tents Ireland was able to play a part in the World Without Cows global premiere at Pearse Lyons Distillery in Dublin.
From the historic venue to the international story behind the documentary, this was a very special event to be involved with.
For us, the project also demonstrates something we believe is increasingly important for hospitality and event venues:
A stretch tent doesn't have to be a completely new installation every time.
With properly designed permanent fixing points already in place, venues can create a repeatable outdoor event space that can be installed when required and quickly removed afterwards.
That's exactly what we've now created at Pearse Lyons Distillery.
