Marquees from Pedersens Hire

Exclusive to Pedersens Hire is our new 50m wide Hoecker marquee. That's right - 50 metres wide, and available for hire ANYWHERE in Australia!!

With that much space under cover, the potential is limitless. Whether you are running a trade show, staging a major exhibition, or simply need to seat thousands under cover, Pedersens can come to the party.

Our skilled and efficient workforce are available to set up this monster marquee wherever you have the space. Site inspections and assessments are all part of our customer service, so that we can discuss with you the best placement and consider such things as access, entrances and exits.

Setting up - our experienced crew at work

Since importing the marquee from Germany in 2000, it has become a prime asset in our marquee range. A number of major events have, for some time, been seeking a structure of this size to provide temporary exhibition and function space. The widthi s only one part of the equation, and the sides of this marquee are also significantly higher that "standard" clear-span marquees.

Start with the 50m and add on the extras

The dimensions allow for the largest equipment and staging. Used at the annual "Diggers & Dealers" convention in Kalgoorlie, our customers have been able to display massive dump trucks and other heavy equipment. In fact, if you wanted to display a Boeing 737 under cover, we can fit it into our 50m marquee! Want it air-conditioned? We can help you arrange that too - just one of the many additional features of our service.

FIT FOR A QUEEN!!!

The 2002 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) was held at Coolum on Queensland's Sunshine Coast in March 2002. Attended by 52 heads of state, as well as Queen Elizabeth, an event such as this calls for the biggest and the best - and our 50m Marquee was chosen as the venue fo the Opening Ceremony.

Read on to find out more about our range of Hoecker marquees.

Hoecker are renowned the world over for their range of party structures, pavilions and large halls. Combining ease of assembly with the sophistication of modern technology, Hoecker structures are built to the highest standards of craftmanship.

The patented construction system used for Hoecker marquees ensures that they are the most stable, secure structure available for all sorts of events. The framework is constructed from anodised aluminium and hot-galvanised steel, while the walls and roof are of high quality, tear-resistant, plastic coated textiles. Rope sewn into the edging runs through grooving in framework to ensure a secure, taut, waterproof seal at all edges.

Any structure must have all feet firmly planted on the ground. The uprights of Hoecker structures are pinned to a base plate, which can be fixed to the ground with steel ground pegs or anchor bolts. In structures with flooring, footings are fitted with brackets to locate the uprights. These footings are purpose-built to lay floor panels.

Wind bracing provides additional rigidity, and this is helped by the special tensioning systems designed to ensure the covers are kept taut.
