We set up stretch tents for all sorts of outdoor events, parties, weddings & corporate events in Cornwall. Their free flowing, unique design can stretch over any space, down slopes, over patios and terraces. They can attach to buildings meaning your party can flow from your house to your garden effortlessly.
These curvy, Bedouin-inspired tents are a stunning alternative to a traditional marquee and provide a great atmosphere. The unique stretch material stretches over poles to give our tents their beautiful flowing shapes & can be set up in so many different ways. They can withstand higher winds than a standard marquee, and have no flapping noise due to the taut stretch fabric.

We are Duwayne & Elise Langley, Jabula Tents team! We both grew up in South Africa which is where stretch tents originate but have been living here in Cornwall, St Ives since 2003 and love it here. We have 3 children, love camping, surfing, exploring Cornwall and going to music festivals. We so enjoy hiring out stretch tents as it allows us to get involved with some amazing events and see some incredible places.
Stretch tents were inspired by the Bedouin Tribe of North Africa and the extremely strong, totally waterproof, stretchy material was developed in South Africa. The beautiful flowing shapes have great visual impact & different pole settings & lighting can create different effects. They are 100% waterproof and fireproof, withstands high wind and have no flapping noise due to the taut stretch fabric.
Our stretch tents are great alternative to hiring a traditional marquee for a wedding and also makes a beautiful ceremony tent or cover for an outdoor blessing. We have various sizes in beige & white, from 4 x 6m up to 15 x 20m stretch tents. The tents work well for small weddings, bar cover or larger receptions seating up to 150 with space for band, bar and dance floor.
We used Jabula for our beautiful wedding venue Polhawn Fort. Amazing team and really flexible in providing options before and on the day of set up! Would highly recommend! We used Jabula tents for our wedding at Trereife Park in July. The tent was absolutely stunning, it made our day & the team were wonderful to work with and made the process very straightforward for us.
If you're planning a party or wedding there are a whole lot of other things you might need as well, like venues, catering, decor, entertainment, lighting, staging. We have a list of other suppliers under 'Catering, Entertainment', if you have any suggestions on other companies to recommend, please contact us.

A fantastic local company! We were so happy with our beautiful stretch tents from Jabula for our wedding. They fitted beautifully in a terraced garden where a traditional marquee would not have worked! Elise was so helpful, despite us having to change our plans many times due to Covid-19. They also helped us weather proof our site the day before our event. We had so many compliments, it felt like a mini festival! Would highly recommend x

We had a vision of the perfect, relaxed, cool, unique festival party and could not have done it without Jabula's fabulous tent. Dwayne and Elise could not have been more charming, flexible, creative or hard working. They were so encouraging and positive from the start and we're only too happy to both fall in with my ideas ( partially erecting the tent on the gravel drive, partially on the lawn) and providing solutions to issues ( what if it rains when the band plays? The solution being screening at the back.)
The tent when erected was stunning. Enclosed at the back for band and dance floor, open
