  • A Chance Meeting in the Cotswolds: A Custom Branded Gazebo for Fat Cow Skin Care

    A Chance Meeting in the Cotswolds: A Custom Branded Gazebo for Fat Cow Skin Care

    A chance conversation in a Cotswolds pub has led to a new partnership between Mini Marquees and Fat Cow Skin Care — and a bespoke 3.0 × 4.5 m Maxi Range Mini Marquee, ready for their events.

    As a family-run British manufacturer, we love helping businesses bring their branding to life. This project was an opportunity to create a promotional gazebo that gives Fat Cow Skin Care a recognisable, practical space to welcome customers and showcase their products.

    A British-Manufactured Gazebo Built for Events

    Designed and manufactured by our team, Fat Cow’s new custom branded gazebo combines a robust aluminium frame with bespoke printed branding.

    Our Maxi Range is a commercial-grade gazebo range designed for businesses that need a dependable structure for regular events. With generous headroom and a spacious 3.0 × 4.5 m footprint, this Mini Marquee provides room for product displays, customer conversations and the team’s event set-up.

    The convenience of a pop-up gazebo, paired with a strong visual identity, makes it a versatile choice for agricultural shows, outdoor exhibitions, trade days and promotional events.

    Supporting Fat Cow Skin Care

    It’s been a pleasure getting to know the people behind Fat Cow Skin Care and seeing the enthusiasm they bring to their business. We’re proud to support them with a branded event space that helps put their products in front of more customers.

    A big thank you to Ryan Porter for his help throughout the design and production process, working with us to take the project from an initial conversation to a finished printed gazebo.

    If you haven’t already discovered Fat Cow Skin Care, take a look at their products and follow their journey.

    Delivered to Diddly Squat Farm Shop

    We delivered the completed Maxi Range Mini Marquee to Diddly Squat Farm Shop for the Farmers Weekly event — a fitting return to the Cotswolds, where the partnership began.

    Seeing a finished structure out at an event is always rewarding. For Fat Cow Skin Care, their new Mini Marquee provides a consistent branded base to take from one event to the next.

    We look forward to seeing where it takes them!

    Mini Marquees Supports PV Brockhills and Fendt at the Great Yorkshire Show

    Mini Marquees was proud to support PV Brockhills at the Great Yorkshire Show with a fully branded commercial grade gazebo designed to make a lasting impression.

    The 3m x 4.5m Maxi Range promotional pop up gazebo created a professional and welcoming space alongside PV Brockhills’ impressive display of Fendt agricultural machinery. Built for frequent outdoor use, our commercial-grade gazebos provide the perfect combination of durability, portability and premium branding.

    A Bespoke Promotional Pop Up Gazebo

    Featuring custom PV Brockhills branding and Fendt’s iconic colours, the gazebo provided a highly visible hub where the team could meet customers, showcase equipment and take a break from the summer weather.

    The distinctive design complemented the machinery on display while helping PV Brockhills maintain a strong and consistent brand presence throughout one of the UK’s leading agricultural events.

    Unlike a standard gazebo, a commercial grade gazebo is engineered to withstand demanding event conditions while delivering a professional appearance that reflects the quality of your business.

    Our promotional pop up gazebos are ideal for:

    • Agricultural shows

  • Mini Marquees X DeWalt Pro Partner

    Mini Marquees X DeWalt Pro Partner

    Mini Marquees have recently completed a standout project for DeWalt Pro Partners, supplying five of our 3.0 x 3.0 Premium promotional gazebos, finished in the brand’s instantly recognisable black and yellow colourway. Designed to combine durability with strong visual impact, these gazebos deliver a clean, professional presence that aligns perfectly with DeWalt’s reputation for performance and reliability.

    Each promotional gazebo has been manufactured to meet the demands of busy working environments, where both practicality and presentation are essential. Whether used on active job sites, trade events, or marketing activations, our premium range is built to perform under pressure while maintaining a sharp, consistent look. The bold black and yellow finish ensures maximum visibility, helping reinforce brand identity and create an unmistakable presence wherever they are deployed.

    The 3.0 x 3.0 Premium promotional gazebo is one of our most versatile solutions, offering the ideal balance of strength, portability, and ease of use. Engineered with a robust frame and high-quality materials, it allows for quick and efficient setup without compromising on structural integrity. This makes it particularly suited to teams that require fast deployment alongside reliable, long-term performance.

    For this order, the five promotional gazebos have been distributed across multiple locations, with two units heading to Ireland and three remaining on the UK mainland. This split highlights the flexibility of our products, supporting operations across different regions while maintaining a consistent brand standard. No matter the location, each gazebo delivers the same level of quality and visual impact, ensuring a unified presence across all sites.

    A high-quality promotional gazebo is more than just shelter — it becomes a branded hub, a meeting point, and a professional workspace. For brands like DeWalt, where presentation is just as important as performance, having reliable and visually striking equipment is key. Our premium gazebos are designed to support this, offering both functionality and strong brand visibility in any environment.

    This project is a great example of how our promotional gazebos help businesses elevate their presence while maintaining durability and ease of use. From trade shows to construction sites, they provide a dependable solution that works as hard as the teams using them.

    We are proud to support DeWalt Pro Partners with high-quality promotional gazebos that reflect the strength and professionalism of their brand. It’s always rewarding to see our products in action across multiple locations, contributing to projects that demand both performance and presence.

    A big thank you to Sophie Walsh for placing the order and trusting Mini Marquees to deliver. We look forward to continuing to support DeWalt Pro Partners with premium promotional gazebo solutions for future projects.

  • Mini Marquees Partners with JCB to Deliver Custom Branded Promotional Gazebos

    Mini Marquees Partners with JCB to Deliver Custom Branded Promotional Gazebos

    Over the past few weeks we have been sharing a few sneak peeks behind the scenes of an exciting project, and we are now delighted to officially reveal our collaboration with JCB Machines.

    Mini Marquees recently partnered with JCB to produce a set of custom branded promotional gazebos, designed to support their presence across construction sites, exhibitions, and industry events. Known globally for their iconic yellow branding and machinery, it was important that the final product reflected the same level of quality and professionalism associated with the JCB brand.

    Premium 3.0m x 3.0m Branded Promotional Gazebos

    For this project we supplied six of our 3.0m x 3.0m Premium Range Mini Marquees, complete with heavy duty carry cases and hard standing anchorage kits to ensure safe and secure setup across a range of outdoor environments.

    Our Premium Range Promotional Gazebo is one of the most popular solutions for businesses looking for a durable, professional, and fully branded event shelter. Built with a strong yet lightweight aluminium frame, the gazebo allows for quick assembly while maintaining excellent structural strength. This makes it ideal for both frequent transport and repeated use.

    With a 3m x 3m footprint, this promotional gazebo offers the perfect balance between portability and coverage. It is well suited for trade shows, construction sites, marketing events, exhibitions, and outdoor promotions.

    High Quality Printed Gazebos with Dye Sublimation

    To achieve the vibrant and long lasting branding required for this project, we used our digital dye sublimation printing process. This technique allows us to produce fully printed gazebos with rich colours and sharp detailing that are embedded directly into the fabric.

    This process ensured the iconic JCB logo and colours were reproduced accurately across each canopy, creating a bold and professional custom printed gazebo that stands out in any environment.

    Unlike traditional printing methods, dye sublimation ensures the graphics remain fade resistant, weather resistant, and highly durable. This makes it ideal for companies that require a branded gazebo solution for regular outdoor use.

    Built for Events, Sites and Promotions

    Whether being used as a promotional gazebo at events, a branded shelter on construction sites, or as part of JCB’s presence at exhibitions and demonstrations, these custom gazebos provide a highly visible and professional space for engagement.

    Each gazebo has been designed to be easy to transport, simple to assemble, and strong enough to withstand demanding outdoor conditions. These features are essential for brands operating across busy sites and large scale events.

    A Collaborative Design Process

    A huge thank you goes to Philip Lovatt for his support throughout the design and production stages of this project. From the initial concept through to final production it was an absolute pleasure collaborating to bring this project to life.

    We look forward to seeing these JCB branded promotional gazebos in action across upcoming events and locations.


  • Mini Marquees Partners with Trend Tool Technology to Deliver Premium Promotional Gazebos

    Mini Marquees Partners with Trend Tool Technology to Deliver Premium Promotional Gazebos

    At Mini Marquees, we’re passionate about helping brands stand out at exhibitions, trade shows, and promotional events. That’s why we’re proud to announce our recent partnership with Trend Tool Technology, working together to create a brand-new range of premium promotional gazebos designed to showcase the Trend brand at events throughout the year.

    Over the past few months, our team has collaborated closely with Matt Sheppard and the team at Trend Tool Technology to design and manufacture a professional event setup that truly reflects the company’s reputation for quality and innovation.

    A Stand Design Built to Represent a Market-Leading Brand

    Trend Tool Technology is widely recognised within the industry for producing high-performance routing tools and accessories. When it came to designing their promotional gazebo, it was important that the structure reflected the same “best in class” approach that their products are known for.

    Working together, we developed a stand solution that combines durability, visual impact, and practicality — ensuring the Trend team can confidently represent their brand at trade days, dealer events, and exhibitions across the UK.

    The result is a striking promotional gazebo setup that delivers both style and performance, helping Trend create a strong presence wherever they exhibit.

    Designed for Trade Shows and Dealer Events

    Promotional gazebos are an essential part of any successful event setup. They provide a professional space for product demonstrations, customer engagement, and brand visibility.

    For Trend Tool Technology, the goal was to create a structure that could be easily transported, quickly assembled, and robust enough to withstand regular use at busy industry events.

    Our custom gazebo solution delivers exactly that. Built using high-quality materials and precision printing, the structure ensures maximum durability while maintaining a clean, professional appearance that draws attention from across the exhibition space.

    Whether used at trade shows, outdoor demonstrations, or retailer trade days, the new Trend gazebo setup provides the perfect environment for showcasing tools and engaging directly with customers.

    A Collaboration Focused on Quality

    At Mini Marquees, collaboration with our clients is at the heart of everything we do. By working closely with the Trend team, we were able to understand their brand values, event requirements, and expectations for performance.

    Matt Sheppard from Trend Tool Technology shared his thoughts on the final result:

    “Premium class gazebos that support Trend’s ethos of best-in-class product. With features and benefits leading the field against competitors.”

    Feedback like this reinforces our commitment to producing high-quality promotional structures that not only look great but also perform in demanding event environments.

    Helping Brands Stand Out at Events

    In competitive exhibition spaces, standing out is essential. A well-designed promotional gazebo doesn’t just provide shelter — it becomes the centrepiece of a brand’s event presence.

    The new Trend Tool Technology setup demonstrates how effective branded structures can transform a trade stand into a powerful marketing platform. Strong branding, high-quality materials, and thoughtful design combine to create a space that attracts visitors and supports meaningful conversations with customers.

    Planning Your Event Setup for 2026

    As many businesses begin planning their event schedules for 2026, now is the perfect time to consider upgrading your current stand or promotional gazebo.

    Whether you’re attending trade shows, hosting product demonstrations, or representing your brand at outdoor events, a custom-branded gazebo can make a significant difference in how your business is perceived.

    At Mini Marquees, our team specialises in designing and producing professional promotional structures tailored to each client’s brand and event needs.

    If you’re thinking about upgrading your exhibition stand or promotional gazebo for the coming year, our team is always on hand and ready to help.

    Get in touch with Mini Marquees today to discuss how we can help elevate your event presence and ensure your brand stands out wherever you exhibit.

  • Mini Marquees X STIHL – CoBrand

    Mini Marquees X STIHL – CoBrand

    In late 2025, Mini Marquees partnered with STIHL and its authorised dealership network to supply a professional range of pop up promotional gazebos designed specifically for in-house trade days, contractor mornings and retail events.

    Dealers regularly host outdoor demonstrations and promotional days, requiring reliable shelter that is quick to deploy and built for repeated commercial use. Together, the two brands developed a durable, co-branded solution that delivers consistent presentation while remaining practical for busy dealership teams.

    Easy Set Up, Built for Daily Use

    Each gazebo has been engineered for easy set up, allowing staff to install the structure quickly without specialist equipment. The fast-deploy frame enables teams to prepare event space in minutes — ideal for early-morning trade customers and seasonal promotions.

    Unlike lightweight promotional shelters, these units are designed for frequent deployment, offering dependable performance across changing weather conditions and busy retail environments.

    Supporting Professional Dealer Events

    The co-branded gazebos create a dedicated outdoor retail space where dealers can:

    • Run demonstrations safely and comfortably
    • Engage customers in all weather conditions
    • Maintain strong brand visibility
    • Host repeat events without ongoing hire costs

    The result is a more professional event environment that reflects the quality of the products being sold.

    A Partnership Built Around Practicality

    STIHL’s reputation for professional equipment aligns naturally with Mini Marquees’ focus on durable event infrastructure. The project demonstrates how manufacturer-dealer networks can benefit from reliable, reusable promotional equipment that enhances customer experience while reducing long-term costs.

    Mini Marquees continues to support the rollout of the programme and future dealership events nationwide.

  • Introducing the Mini Marquee & Gazebo Maintenance Package

    Introducing the Mini Marquee & Gazebo Maintenance Package

    At Mini Marquees, we don’t just manufacture structures — we keep them working.
    Our Mini Marquee Management Package provides ongoing servicing, repair and maintenance for commercial mini marquees, pop-up gazebos and event shelters.

    Whether your structure is used daily, seasonally or stored between events, regular maintenance is essential to keep it safe, waterproof and reliable.

    Professional Gazebo & Marquee Servicing

    Pop-up gazebos and mini marquees experience heavy wear through repeated assembly, transport and exposure to UK weather conditions. Frames loosen, joints fatigue and covers begin to leak long before full failure occurs.

    Our scheduled servicing includes:

    • Frame inspection and alignment checks
    • Joint and connector tightening
    • Structural safety checks
    • Weatherproofing inspection
    • Wear and fatigue detection

    Regular servicing prevents unexpected collapse, water ingress and last-minute event problems.

    Frame Repairs for Pop-Up Gazebos & Mini Marquees

    We provide professional gazebo frame repairs and mini marquee frame repairs carried out on site wherever possible.

    Many damaged structures don’t need replacing — they need proper repair.

    Typical repairs include:

    • Bent or twisted legs
    • Broken truss bars
    • Worn joint connectors
    • Storm damage
    • Stress fractures from repeated use

    Our aim is to restore strength and safe operation while extending the working life of the structure.

    Canopy & Cover Repairs

    Covers naturally deteriorate due to UV exposure, folding, moisture and handling. Instead of full replacement, we carry out specialist sewing and waterproofing repairs in our workshop.

    Services include:

    • Gazebo canopy repairs
    • Seam restitching
    • Panel replacement
    • Velcro and attachment repairs
    • Waterproof seam restoration

    This keeps the structure weatherproof and presentable for professional use.

    Preventative Maintenance for Event Shelters

    Preventative maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect event equipment. Our service identifies issues before they cause failures during setup.

    Benefits include:

    • Longer lifespan for gazebos and marquees
    • Reduced replacement costs
    • Improved safety
    • Reliable deployment
    • Professional appearance at every event

    Ongoing Support

    The Mini Marquee Management Package ensures your structure is not just supplied — but supported throughout its working life. From pop-up gazebos to commercial mini marquees, we keep your equipment operational and event-ready.
