Why Hire a Marquee for Your Birthday Party?
A marquee turns your backyard into a private venue — no booking fees, no minimum spend, no corkage, no closing time. At $550 for the smallest marquee, it costs less than most restaurant private dining rooms and you get to control every detail.
For milestone birthdays (21st, 30th, 40th, 50th), a marquee gives the celebration the weight it deserves. Add festoon lighting for atmosphere, a dance floor for the inevitable midnight dance party, and cocktail tables with bar stools for a proper bar setup. The result is a party that looks like you hired an event planner — without the event planner price tag.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a birthday party marquee cost? +
From $550 for a 6x3m marquee. A typical backyard birthday party with a 6x6m marquee, flooring, and festoon lighting (Pack 2) is $1,620.
What size marquee do I need for 50 guests? +
For 50 standing/cocktail guests: 6x6m. For 50 seated dinner guests: 6x9m or 8x6m. The 6x9m is our most popular birthday party size for this guest count.
Can I hire just festoon lighting without a marquee? +
Yes. Our festoon lighting packs start from $280 (Backyard Bliss Pack) and work as standalone installations — no marquee required.
Do you set up for kids birthday parties? +
Yes. The 6x3m and 6x6m are popular for kids parties — weather protection for outdoor activities, crafts, and food. The marquee keeps the party contained and off your indoor furniture.
