Footprint planning

Choose the Right Tent Size for Your Event

The best tent size leaves enough working room without disrupting visitor flow. Map the available footprint, staff positions, displays, tables or counters, promotional distribution and any supporting flags before choosing a size family.

Tent buying FAQs

Custom Advertising Tent Questions

Direct answers for buyers preparing a tent or complete event-package RFQ.

What is a custom advertising tent?+

A custom advertising tent is an event canopy planned with branded graphic areas such as the roof, valance and selected walls. It creates a visible, organized space for trade shows, sports events, marathons, festivals and brand activations. The final size, structure, fabric, graphics and wall layout should be confirmed as one project specification.

What tent size is best for a trade show booth?+

A 10×10 ft tent is a practical starting point for a compact booth, while 10×15 ft or 10×20 ft formats provide more room for displays, staff and visitor flow. The best choice depends on the organizer’s available footprint, your display plan, the number of people working inside and the access you want to keep open.

What is the difference between a 10×10 and 10×20 event tent?+

A 10×10 tent provides a compact branded zone for one main event function. A 10×20 tent doubles the nominal footprint and can support multiple staff positions, visitor touchpoints or product stations. Before choosing, compare the event-space allowance, furniture, display area and expected visitor movement rather than selecting by size alone.

Can the roof and side walls be custom printed?+

Roof panels, valances and wall panels can be treated as separate branding areas where the selected tent configuration supports them. Include the required coverage, logo positions and campaign graphics in the RFQ. The appropriate print direction and exact panel layout are then confirmed against the chosen fabric and tent structure.

Can I use different graphics on each tent wall?+

Different wall graphics can be planned as part of the artwork layout. Identify the purpose and viewing direction of each panel—for example a sponsor wall, campaign message or entrance panel—and provide the corresponding files. The final artwork coverage is reviewed for the selected wall configuration before the project specification is confirmed.

What artwork should I provide for a custom printed tent?+

Provide vector logo files when available, plus brand colors or Pantone references, required copy, sponsor graphics and placement notes. A sketch, event plan or previous-branding reference can also help explain the intended result. If final artwork is not ready, use the RFQ to share the references you have and describe the required graphic areas.

Can tents, flags and table covers be sourced as one event package?+

Yes. XZD Branding can organize a project brief around a custom tent together with flags, table covers, trade show displays, promotional bags, apparel and giveaways. Coordinating these items through one event-package brief helps align the required visual system, quantities, artwork references, destination and timing without creating separate disconnected requests.

What information is needed to request a custom tent quotation?+

Share the tent type or preferred footprint, quantity, event type, wall configuration, branding areas, artwork status, event date, required delivery date and destination. Also include any supporting products such as flags, table covers or displays. If a detail is undecided, explain the use case so the configuration can be discussed during quotation.
