Why Hire a 6m x 12m Marquee in Brisbane?
At 72 square metres, the 6x12m is where a marquee stops being a shelter and becomes a venue. This is the size where you can comfortably have a 60-person seated dinner with a dedicated dance floor, a DJ or live band setup, a bar area, and still have room for guests to move without bumping into tables.
The 6x12 shares the same floor area as our 8x9m marquee (both 72m²) but in a longer, narrower format. The 6m width means it fits sites where an 8m marquee would not — think narrow backyards, side-access properties, and long driveways. Four roof bays give you maximum flexibility with clear roof upgrades.
This size is particularly popular for Brisbane wedding receptions where the couple wants a sit-down dinner with all the trimmings. Add our wooden trestle tables for a rustic long-table feast, or round tables with Americana chairs for a more traditional layout. Either way, the 6x12 gives you the room to create distinct zones — and that is what separates a great event from a good one.
Ideal For
- ✦ Full-scale backyard weddings — 50–60 seated guests with bridal table, dance floor, bar, DJ, and photographer space
- ✦ Corporate dinners and awards nights — professional venue setup for 60 guests with stage, lectern, and AV space
- ✦ Community events and fundraisers — seated dinner with auction, entertainment, and socialising areas
- ✦ Large birthday celebrations — 60+ guests with cocktail zones, dinner seating, and a dedicated party area
Setup tip: Needs 8m x 14m of flat ground. The 6x12 uses 4 roof bays — consider mixing clear and white panels (e.g., 2 clear over the dining area, 2 white over the dance floor for better lighting effects).
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a 6x12 and 8x9 marquee? +
Both are 72m² but different shapes. The 6x12 is longer and narrower (great for narrow sites and long-table dining). The 8x9 is wider and shorter (better for round tables and square layouts). Same capacity, different feel.
How many people can you seat in a 6x12m marquee? +
Seated dinner: 60 guests. Standing cocktail: 120. Cocktail with some seating: 80. With a dance floor reserved, seated capacity drops to about 48.
Can I have a bar inside a 6x12m marquee? +
Absolutely. A standard bar setup takes about 3m x 1.5m. In the 6x12, you can have a full bar area, 6-7 dining tables, and still leave room for a 3x3m dance floor.
Do you deliver 6x12m marquees to the Gold Coast? +
Yes. We service Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Logan, Moreton Bay, Redlands, Scenic Rim, Somerset, and Lockyer Valley. Delivery fees are calculated based on distance from our Brendale depot.
