A May Bank Holiday to Remember: Sun, Celebrations, and a Very Busy Crew!

What a weekend! The May Bank Holiday is always a highlight of the Cobham Marquees calendar, but this year really took the (wedding) cake. From sun-drenched garden parties to major sports celebrations across Kent and South London, it’s been a whirlwind of activity for our team.

Back and All Accounted For

As of this morning, our last van has pulled back into the yard. Every single one of our marquees—from our clear-span structures to our cozy party tents—is now back, safely stored, and undergoing its post-event pampering (a deep clean and thorough inspection) so they’re pristine for the next big date.

We were thrilled to be the structural backbone for several iconic local and sporting occasions this weekend:

Croydon Athletic Football Club: We finished the week strong with a massive 21m floored and lined marquee for their annual presentation. The setup featured club-branded burgundy carpets, a full stage, and a dance floor ready for a serious after-party.
Meopham Cricket Club at Nurstead Court: To celebrate their 250th anniversary, we provided a stunning 9m x 18m setup at the picturesque Nurstead Court. With navy blue carpets, ivory linings, and elegant Chiavari chairs, it was a night to remember for the historic club.

Masonic Fishing Charity Event: It was an honour to support the Masonic Fishing Charity at Horsham Fisheries. We provided a lakeside marquee for their BBQ lunch, helping provide a great experience for everyone involved in this fantastic cause.

Family Garden Parties: Plenty of smaller, open-sided setups across the region made the most of the bank holiday sun.

What’s Next?

The 2026 marquee season is officially in full swing! Our diary is filling up fast for the summer months. If you’re planning a milestone birthday, a corporate gala, or a sports club presentation of your own, don’t wait too long to get in touch.
