But before we know it, summer will be upon us. It’ll be time to shed the winter woollies, trade Uggs for slip slops and hot chocolate for a nice cold crisp glass of sauvignon blanc. So, what better time to start preparing for longer days and sunnier skies.

Tents Galore in Tankwa Town

Afrika Burn

Afrika Burn 2016 in Tankwa Town

Every year, for the past decade, as the sun sets on summer and autumn begins, so too does the pilgrimage to Tankwa Town. For 11 months of the year this little corner of the Karoo is an open empty landscape inhabited by endemic flora and fauna. This very localised, fragile ecosystem is home to several species of both plant and animal that are specific to this area only. However, for that twelfth month there is an influx, a migration if you will, of creatures fiercely fantastical, loudly musical and wildly imaginative.

Raise Your Glass to Tentickle & the 2016 Belfast Craft Beer Festival

Posted by under Events, Ireland

Beer Festivals organized by Make it Happen Events in Ireland have been popular with locals and tourists alike for some time, but this year the 2016 Belfast Craft Beer Festival offered something a little different in the form of Tentickle Stretch tents supplied by Tentickle Ireland. Beer Festivals are already a big part of Northern Irish culture, but one of this magnitude called for premium outdoor tent coverage and temporary shelter that needed to protect the punters from the Irish weather and help create an eye-catching cosy environment. This prompted event’s organizer Bruce Mansour to contact Maverick Marquees with a request for something “funky and colourful”, and of course we were only too happy to oblige!

Tents as BIG as the Beer Flavours they’re Sheltering!

Although this was the first time that a Tentickle Tent was used at this event, Maverick Marquees came to the party in a big way and pitched a massive 700 m sq structure created through the use of 2 separate tents joined together to accommodate nearly 40 separate bars and an impressive DJ space.
