Frequently Asked Questions: 40x140 Commercial Tents

How many people does it take to set up a 40x140 tent?
A professional crew of 10 to 12 people is required for a 40x140 installation. Due to the massive weight and total surface area, this structure is manufactured to be installed using specialized equipment like tent jacks and mechanical lifts for safety.

How many tables fit in a 40x140 tent?
A 40x140 tent can typically fit 55 to 65 standard 60-inch round tables. This layout provides comfortable seating for approximately 450 guests while allowing for a large main stage, dance floors, and several bar service areas.

Is a 40x140 tent suitable for major festivals?
Yes. The 40x140 is manufactured specifically for high-occupancy throughput. Its length makes it perfect for creating a "grand corridor" or a massive hospitality pavilion at music festivals or sporting events.

What is the difference between a frame and a pole 40x140?
A 40x140 frame tent is manufactured with a self-supporting metal skeleton for a completely open interior. A 40x140 pole tent is manufactured with multiple center poles, creating a high-peak, scalloped silhouette that is a classic for traditional outdoor events.

Can I add sidewalls to a 40x140 tent?

How do I anchor a 40x140 tent?
With 5,600 sq. ft. of surface area, anchoring is critical for safety. While staking into soil is the most secure, for concrete setups, the tent is manufactured to require heavy ballast—typically several thousand pounds of concrete weights—to ensure stability against wind loads.
