Our Marquee Range

Hoeker Style Marquees

Our preferred marquee style is the Hoeker, and for good reason. Hoeker marquees create beautiful, open interior spaces without the hassle of centre poles or guy ropes getting in the way of your layout, your furniture or your guests. This makes them incredibly versatile for weddings, receptions, corporate events, festivals and formal functions where you want full control over the internal design and flow of your space. We carry Hoeker marquees in a range of sizes to suit everything from intimate gatherings through to large-scale celebrations.

Silk-Lined Marquees

For couples and event planners looking to add a touch of sophistication and elegance, our silk lining option transforms the interior of any marquee into something truly special. Silk lining is available for all 6 metre, 9 metre and 10 metre marquees and creates a soft, flowing canopy overhead that elevates the entire look and feel of your event space. It is one of the most popular upgrades for weddings and formal functions across Byron Bay and the Northern Rivers.

Clear Marquees

If you want something with a real wow factor, our clear marquees are hard to beat. Available in both 6 metre and 9 metre lengths, clear marquees let you enjoy a dining-under-the-stars experience while still being fully protected from whatever the Byron Bay weather decides to do. They are perfect for evening receptions, twilight weddings and outdoor events where you want to make the most of the surroundings and the sky above. Pair a clear marquee with festoon lighting and the result is an atmosphere that your guests will not forget.

Hi-Top Pagodas and Quickshades

For smaller events and practical setups, our range of Hi-Top Pagodas and Quickshades are kept to the same high standard as our larger function marquees. They are ideal for home events, catering areas, bar setups, market stalls, registration desks and any occasion where you need reliable shelter from the sun or rain without the scale of a full marquee. Compact, clean and easy to work with, they are a popular choice for casual gatherings and supporting areas at larger events.

Marquee Sizes and Configurations

Choosing the right size marquee depends on your guest numbers, your seating style, your venue layout and what else needs to fit inside the space — dance floors, bars, catering stations, stages and lounge areas all take up room. Here is a general guide to help you start thinking about what you might need.

Small Events — Up to 40 Guests

A 6 metre marquee is typically suitable for smaller gatherings such as engagement parties, intimate wedding receptions, birthday celebrations and family events. It provides enough space for seated dining or a cocktail-style setup with room to move. Silk lining and clear options are both available at this size.

Medium Events — 40 to 80 Guests

A 9 metre marquee offers more flexibility for medium-sized weddings, corporate functions, community events and milestone celebrations. There is enough room for a formal seated layout plus a dance floor or lounge area, depending on how you configure the space. This is one of our most popular sizes for Byron Bay weddings.

Large Events — 80 to 150 Plus Guests

For larger celebrations, our 10 metre marquees and multi-marquee configurations provide the space you need for formal sit-down dinners, large receptions, festivals and corporate events. We can connect multiple marquees to create a seamless event space that accommodates large guest lists while maintaining flow and atmosphere. Silk lining is available at this size for a polished, cohesive look throughout.

If you are unsure about sizing, that is exactly what our free site inspection is for. We will visit your venue, measure the space, and recommend the best configuration for your event.

We hired a cool room, dance floor, outdoor furniture, umbrellas, lawn games, tables etc for our wedding in Nov 2025. The team at Mullum hire are amazing. I can’t thank them enough. The entire process from booking through to pack down and collection was seamless. The hire equipment is great quality and well priced, especially when compared with other vendors I contacted. The team are professional, helpful and easy to deal with, nothing was a drama for them. I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. It was fantastic to be able to get all our hire from the one place. It made the day so seamless. Thank you all so much! I would highly recommend!

Five black stars in a row.

We used the Mullum Hire team for our at-home wedding earlier this month. Everything from the marquee and lighting to the knives and forks was sourced from the Mullum Hire team, and they were absolutely incredible to deal with. They consulted and advised me on the best options for our wedding venue, as well as looked over things like our seating chart to ensure that everything would fit perfectly. On bump-in day, the team were super friendly and helpful, and willing to assist in any way they could. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Mullum Hire team! Thank you again! 🥰

We used Mullum Hire as our one-stop-shop hire company for our wedding in Bangalow, and they were fantastic. Terry and the team were incredibly helpful, flexible and capable, resulting in a hassle free and really calming experience in the lead up to the event. They communicated very well throughout, and the set up and bump out were smooth and uncomplicated. Highly recommend their services to anyone doing an event of any scale, as they will do whatever they can to get it just right.
