Pembina Valley Tent Rentals

As of June 21, 2020 the current acceptable gathering sizes are as follows;

Indoor venue: 50 people

Outdoor venue: 100 people

Currently it is recommended by health officials that everyone be 2m/ 6ft apart from each other to maintain proper social distancing.

A minimum of 36 square feet is needed per person to maintain proper social distancing.

Please refer to the following chart to see how many people can safely be under a tent while maintaining 2m/6ft social distancing (please keep in mind the current capacity limits for indoor and outdoor events):

Yes, you are able to rent a tent and have the walls installed. However, if a tent has the walls installed around the perimeter, it becomes known as an “indoor” venue and a maximum of 50 people are allowed to be inside as long as the tent is sizeable enough to accommodate 2m/6ft social distancing .

The current minimum tent size to accommodate 50 people and maintain social distancing is a 30’x70’ Marquee Pole Tent.

Yes, you can rent a tent for a party of 100, however walls/ windows cannot be installed on the tent. A tent with only the canopy (no windows/walls) is considered an outdoor venue, capable of hosting up to 100 people as long as the tent is sizeable enough to maintain social distancing (2m/6ft).

The current minimum tent size to accommodate 100 people and to maintain social distancing is a 30’x130’ or 40’x100′ Marquee Pole Tent.

Since none of our employees at Pembina Valley Tent Rentals will be on-site at the time of the event, it is the responsibility of the renter to monitor and enforce the social distancing as well as the social gathering sizes based on measurements currently in place in the Province of Manitoba.

While renters are able to choose any size tent they want, Pembina Valley Tent Rentals will provide the proper capacity limits for the size of tent you wish to rent that reflect the current COVID-19 social distancing/ gathering regulations currently in place in the Province of Manitoba. It is up to the renter to enforce the proper monitoring of social distancing/ gathering sizes in the tent.

Pembina Valley Tent Rentals will be continuing to sanitize our equipment (such as tables, chairs, flooring etc) after each rental using cleaning products that have been approved by Provincial Health Officials to fight the COVID-19 virus.

Although we are cleaning our products after each rental, we are asking our clients to conduct the preliminary sanitization in order to help protect our employees when they arrive for take-down/ pick-up.

We are committed to providing our clients with clean and safe equipment, however we want to ensure that our employees remain safe as well during this unprecedented time, and we ask that our customers please cooperate with us in order to ensure everyone remains safe by conducting the initial wipe-down of the rental items where it will go on for further sanitization once it arrives back at our shop.
