Delivering Large-Scale Event Structures in the Highlands
When people think of Inverness, they picture breathtaking landscapes, the River Ness gliding through the city, and the gateway to the Highlands. For us at Purvis Marquee Hire, Inverness represents opportunity, scale, and a unique set of challenges. We’ve delivered large event marquees and temporary structures in the Highlands for everything from Highland Games and music festivals to corporate hospitality and community celebrations.
Working in the Highlands isn’t like setting up in the Central Belt. Every site tells its own story, sloped fields, soft ground, unpredictable weather, and that ever-present Highland wind. But for us, that’s part of the thrill. We build each marquee on site, adapting to the landscape, and ensuring your event has infrastructure that’s safe, compliant, and capable of withstanding Scotland’s elements.
Why Event Organisers in Inverness Choose Purvis
If you’re searching for marquee hire Inverness, chances are you need more than just a tent. You need a partner who understands the demands of large-scale outdoor events and can handle the full picture, from layout planning and safety documentation to on-site construction and branded event finishes.
Over the years, we’ve delivered:
-
Highland Games hospitality structures with elevated viewing areas
-
Festival marquees for music, arts, and community events across Inverness-shire
-
Corporate event pavilions for product launches and energy sector gatherings
-
Agricultural and trade show structures, tailored for livestock and machinery displays
Each project starts with a conversation about your vision, terrain, and audience. From there, we plan every detail: flooring solutions, clearspan layouts, branded linings, access routes, and compliance checks — all tailored for the Highland environment.
Building Marquees in the Highlands, What It Really Takes
The Highlands demand robust planning and specialist knowledge. When we install a marquee in Inverness or the surrounding region, we consider:
-
Wind and weather: Highland gusts are no joke; our structures are load-tested and fully compliant.
-
Ground conditions: Sloped or soft sites get reinforced with flooring and stabilisation.
-
Access and logistics: Remote locations require experienced crews and careful delivery planning.
-
Local compliance: We provide full safety documentation and work closely with local authorities.
This is why event professionals and local councils across Inverness trust us. They know that by the time guests arrive, the marquee is more than just standing, it’s safe, functional, and the perfect backdrop to their event.
