A Tent Solution for Company Picnics, Appreciation Days, and Business Events

A company picnic, an employee appreciation cookout, a client open house — these events put your organization on display outdoors, usually with a hard date, a guest count that’s bigger than a backyard party, and no room for a scheduling scramble. CLE Bounce Houses supplies and installs high-peak tents across the Cleveland area for exactly this kind of event, handling delivery, setup, and teardown so your team can focus on the event itself instead of the tent.

Corporate outdoor events tend to share the same short list of requirements: enough covered space for the whole group, a setup that looks intentional rather than improvised, and a rental partner who shows up and installs on schedule without needing hand-holding on event day. A high-peak tent checks all three boxes. The steep-pitched roofline sheds rain better than a flat-top canopy, stands up to wind more predictably, and reads as a finished, professional structure rather than a backyard pop-up — which matters when clients, executives, or the whole staff are walking underneath it.

Whether you’re running an annual company picnic, an employee appreciation lunch, a client-facing outdoor event, or an outdoor product launch or grand opening, the tent itself does double duty: it’s the shade and weather protection, and it’s also the visual anchor for the whole event.

High-Peak Tents Sized to Your Guest List

We work in three high-peak tent sizes, so the footprint can scale with your event instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all setup.

20×20 High-Peak Tent Our most established size and a solid fit for a smaller department gathering, a leadership offsite, or a client meet-and-greet where you need covered space without taking over a whole lot.

20×30 High-Peak Tent A step up for a mid-sized company picnic or appreciation event — enough room to spread out food service, seating, and a bit of open space without guests feeling stacked on top of each other.

20×40 High-Peak Tent Our largest option, built for full-company picnics, larger client events, or product launches where you want one continuous covered area instead of splitting the group across multiple tents.

Exact seated and standing capacity varies with your table/chair layout, food service setup, and whether you’re using the full footprint for seating or leaving room for activities or a stage. As a baseline, matched to the package chair counts, the 20×20 seats up to 48 guests, the 20×30 up to 64, and the 20×40 up to 96. Tell us your expected headcount and how you plan to use the space, and we’ll help you land on the right size.

Corporate Tent Packages: Tent, Tables, and Chairs in One Booking

Rather than sourcing a tent from one vendor and tables and chairs from another, our tent packages bundle everything together:

• 20×20 Package — tent, 6 tables, 48 chairs
• 20×30 Package — tent, 8 tables, 64 chairs
• 20×40 Package — tent, 12 tables, 96 chairs

Packaged this way, the cost typically comes in below what it would run to rent or buy the tent, tables, and chairs as separate line items at average market rates — useful when you’re building a budget request or comparing quotes. Tables and chairs are only available as part of a tent package, not as a standalone rental, so if your event needs more seating than a single package includes, let us know your full headcount and we’ll help you figure out the right combination. For confirmed current pricing, request a quote — we can walk through package options based on your guest count and site.

Logistics Corporate Planners Actually Care About

Setup Ahead of Time, Not the Morning Of

Tents are typically delivered and set up one to three days before your event, and taken down one to three days after — not same-day setup and breakout. That gives your team a finished site to walk through, photograph, or adjust before guests arrive, and it removes “will the tent be up in time” from your list of day-of worries. If your event is part of a multi-day company gathering or you need the tent to stay up across several days for staged activities, tell us your timeline when you request a quote and we’ll work out what’s possible.

A Clean, Professional Look for Client-Facing Events

For events where appearance matters — client visits, media coverage, executive attendance — add-ons like side walls and lighting help the tent read as a finished, branded space rather than a basic canopy. Side walls also give you a way to define the space, block wind, or create a more enclosed feel for catering and check-in areas. We don’t currently produce custom-branded tent graphics or signage, so if your event needs company branding visible on the structure itself, plan to bring your own banners, signage, or step-and-repeat and we’ll help you figure out where they’ll fit best within the tent layout.

Weekday and Weekend Scheduling

Corporate events don’t follow the same calendar as weddings and backyard parties — plenty of company picnics and appreciation events happen on a weekday afternoon or evening rather than a Saturday. We work with businesses to schedule delivery and setup around a weekday event, a weekend event, or an off-hours install before your team arrives. We ask for at least 5 days’ notice to book, and there’s no minimum order — request a quote online, or reach out by text or phone call to get the process started.

Parking Lots, Pavement, and Other Non-Grass Surfaces

Many corporate venues — office campuses, parking lots, industrial parks — don’t offer the open grass a backyard tent setup assumes. With add-on concrete block or water barrel anchoring, tents can be installed on hard surfaces like concrete, asphalt, or pavers using weighted anchors instead of ground stakes, which opens up sites that wouldn’t otherwise work for a staked tent. Ask us about hard-surface setup when you request your quote — describe your site and we’ll tell you what setup will work.

Events We Support

• Company picnics
• Employee appreciation days
• Client-facing outdoor events
• Product launches and grand openings
• Team gatherings and offsites held outdoors

If your event doesn’t fit neatly into one of these categories, that’s fine — describe what you’re planning and we’ll tell you what tent size and setup makes sense.

Getting a Quote for Your Company Event

Corporate bookings often come with a budget approval process, so we’re glad to put together a written quote you can share internally before anything is finalized. Tell us your event date, expected guest count, and site (including whether it’s grass, pavement, or a mix), and we’ll recommend a tent size and package. For contingency planning: normal rain and heat aren’t grounds for cancellation, since a properly set-up tent still functions in those conditions, and this policy is separate from our bounce-house rain policy. We do reserve the right to delay, modify, or cancel a setup at no cancellation fee if we’re facing genuinely unsafe conditions — sustained or gusting winds around 20 mph or higher, lightning, or hail. If you’d rather cancel on your end over an ordinary rain forecast, that falls under our standard cancellation policy.
