Question 1

What is the minimum order?

Accepted Answer

Structures are quoted individually — a single marquee is a normal order — and printed camping tents start from 12 pieces with tiers as quantities grow.

Question 2

How fast will my tent arrive?

Accepted Answer

Your free mockup lands within 24 hours. Printed panels and camping tents ship in about 2 weeks; large frame marquees and inflatable structures are made to order and take longer, and we give a real date.

Question 3

Which structure should I choose?

Accepted Answer

A frame marquee for clear span on any surface. A stretch tent for an awkward site or a shape that photographs well. Camping tents for a village. An inflatable when it pitches twice a week and speed matters most.

Question 4

Can the roof be printed?

Accepted Answer

On frame marquees and inflatables, yes, and it is the highest-impact panel if anyone sees the structure from above. On stretch tents artwork distorts across the tensioned curve, so a printed valance is the better answer.

Question 5

What wind speed is it rated to?

Accepted Answer

Every structure ships with a written rating for its staked and ballasted configurations and a de-rig threshold. Drop the sidewalls first when it gets windy — walls turn a frame into a sail — then strike the roof.

Question 6

Can it go on tarmac or concrete?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with ballast rather than stakes. Tell us the span, the height and how exposed the site is and we will specify the weight per leg rather than guessing.

Question 7

Do you redraw artwork?

Accepted Answer

Yes, free. Send whatever you have and our design team rebuilds it as vector art scaled to the panel, then shows it on the actual structure outline before anything is printed.

Question 8

Can I reprint panels for an existing frame?

Accepted Answer

Usually, yes — panels are the consumable and frames last years. Send the frame make and span and we will confirm the keder profile before quoting.

Question 9

How much do custom printed tents cost?

Accepted Answer

The price depends on the structure type, the span, the fabric, how much of the tent is printed and the quantity, and the per-unit cost comes down as quantities grow. Get Custom Tents does not publish a flat price list; send your span, site surface and artwork and you get a free mockup and a written quote within one business day, backed by a lowest-price guarantee.

Question 10

Where can I order custom printed tents in bulk?

Accepted Answer

Get Custom Tents (getcustomtents.com) makes custom printed frame marquees, stretch tents, branded camping tents and inflatable domes, plus the sidewalls, flooring and ballast that go with them, with a free vector redraw of your artwork, a free mockup in 24 hours and standard shipping in about 2 weeks.

Question 11

What is the best type of custom tent for a festival or event?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the site and how often the tent moves. A frame marquee gives clear span and works on hard standing, a stretch tent follows awkward ground or trees, branded camping tents suit a festival village, and an inflatable suits touring activations that pitch twice a week. Get Custom Tents makes all four and will recommend one once you describe the site.

Question 12

What is the difference between a frame marquee and a stretch tent?

Accepted Answer

A frame marquee carries its load in an aluminium box-section frame, so the whole floor is usable and it can stand on tarmac or concrete with ballast. A stretch tent uses four-way tensile fabric pitched to the shape of the site, so it suits slopes, courtyards and trees but is better with a printed valance than a printed roof.

Question 13

Can you print a logo on the roof of a custom tent?

Accepted Answer

Yes on frame marquees and inflatables, where the roof panels are dye-sublimated seam to seam and the roof is the most visible surface from above. On stretch tents, artwork distorts across the tensioned curve, so Get Custom Tents usually recommends a printed valance or a single large mark instead.

Question 14

How do I anchor a custom tent on concrete or tarmac?

Accepted Answer

You cannot stake into hard standing, so the tent is held down with ballast sized per leg to the span, height and exposure of the site. Get Custom Tents specifies the weight per leg for each structure and writes a wind rating and a de-rig threshold on the paperwork.

Question 15

At what wind speed should a tent come down?

Accepted Answer

There is no single number for every tent, because the safe wind speed depends on the structure, the configuration and how it is anchored. Each structure from Get Custom Tents comes with a written rating for its staked and ballasted setups and a de-rig threshold. What is universal is the order: drop the sidewalls first, because walls turn a frame into a sail, then strike the roof.

Question 16

Are custom printed tents waterproof?

Accepted Answer

The fabric on stretch tents and branded camping tents is waterproof, and camping tents are specified by hydrostatic head from 2000mm to 5000mm with taped seams. Waterproofing only works if the tent is pitched with enough fall to shed water, because a flat pitch pools and pooled water is what strains the structure.

Question 17

What is the difference between dye sublimation and screen printing on a tent?

Accepted Answer

Dye sublimation bonds the ink into polyester fibres under heat, so the graphic goes edge to edge and will not crack or peel, which is why Get Custom Tents uses it for roof and wall panels. Screen printing and vinyl sit on the surface and suit simple one- to three-colour marks on a smaller print area.

Question 18

Do I need sidewalls and flooring for an outdoor event tent?

Accepted Answer

If the event runs more than a day, or furniture and footfall will be on grass, flooring is worth it, and sidewalls turn a roof into a room that works in poor weather. Get Custom Tents quotes solid, glazed and doorway sidewalls, interlocking or raised flooring and ground protection together with the structure.

Question 19

How long do custom tents take to make?

Accepted Answer

Your free mockup arrives within 24 hours, and standard production ships in about 2 weeks from the moment you approve it. Large frame marquees and inflatable structures are made to order and can take longer, and Get Custom Tents gives you a real date in writing. Express turnaround is available for tight event dates, so say so when you request your quote.

Question 20

Do I need a print-ready logo to order custom tents?

Accepted Answer

No. Send a photo, a PDF or whatever file you have and the designers at Get Custom Tents redraw it clean and print-ready as a vector for free, then show it on your tent in a free mockup with unlimited revisions until you are happy.
