Dome Marquees and Cheese Tents for Hire in Nairobi
Looking for dome marquee hire in Nairobi? Amazing Theme Party Planners hires out cheese tents and dome marquees for large weddings, harambees, conferences, exhibitions, fundraisers and corporate events across Nairobi and Kenya. A cheese tent, also called a dome marquee or clear-span marquee, has a curved, dome-like roof and no internal columns, so every square metre of floor space is usable. The 9×12m cheese marquee is KES 20,000 and suits 80 to 100 guests, the 10×15m is KES 24,000 and the 12×18m is KES 30,000.
The clear-span marquee, with no internal poles and an open floor, is KES 50,000 per section, and the premium dome marquee, a structure with professional installation, is KES 220,000. Looking for smaller tents? See our frame and high-peak tents and event tents.
Why Choose a Dome Marquee?
With no internal columns, a dome marquee gives you an unobstructed floor plan for tables, a stage, a dance floor and buffet lines, which is why it suits weddings of 200 or more guests, harambees, trade exhibitions, conferences and fundraisers. Larger domes can be branded inside and out for corporate events. If your layout includes a buffet, stage, dance floor, gift table or lounge area, allow 20 to 30 percent extra space and send us a floor plan so we can recommend the size.
Setup, Ground Conditions and Weather
Every marquee hire includes professional erection and dismantling by our trained crew. Before a large tent goes up, the team checks the ground for slope, utilities and anchor points, then fixes the marquee with stakes or water weights depending on the surface. A large marquee can take a full day to erect, so large installations are often completed the afternoon before your event. Sidewall panels are available for wind, rain and privacy, and we cannot control the weather: if rain stops an outdoor event you can choose another venue or agree a suitable new date with us.
How Do Delivery, Setup and Booking Work?
Our crew delivers, sets up and collects the marquees at your venue, with delivery and collection quoted separately by distance from our Waiyaki Way yard at KES 270/km for the first 30 km and KES 180/km beyond, with return logistics confirmed in your quotation. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for weekend events, and 4 to 6 weeks ahead for large orders or peak periods such as December, Easter and August. A 5% last-minute surcharge applies to bookings made within 24 hours of the event. An 80% deposit secures your date, and the remaining 20% balance is due on delivery, after setup is complete and you have confirmed and accepted all items. We accept M-Pesa, cash, bank transfer and card payments. See the delivery areas on our tent hire page. Send your date, venue and guest count on WhatsApp for a tailored quote.
