Every Tent Style. Every Event Size.
Elite Events & Rentals offers the widest selection of event tent rentals in Tampa Bay, with styles to suit every event format, venue type, and guest count. Whether you are planning an intimate backyard gathering in Oldsmar or a large-scale festival across Pinellas County, we have the right structure for the job
Frame Tents
Freestanding and pole-free inside, frame tents work on any surface, including concrete and pavement. A versatile choice for corporate functions, cocktail receptions, and events where interior space needs to stay open and unobstructed.

Keder Tents
A track-and-cable system creates a taut, clean profile and a stronger weather seal than standard frame tents. Our keder inventory includes the Arbor Tent, a natural wood archway design that sets the tone for weddings and upscale events.

Pole Tents
The classic choice for large outdoor events. Center and perimeter poles create a dramatic peaked silhouette that works beautifully for weddings, festivals, and community events on grassy or open venues with room to stake.

Sailcloth Tents
Translucent fabric diffuses natural light during the day and glows warmly after dark. Natural wood poles and a peaked roofline make sailcloth tents a popular choice for weddings and social events where atmosphere is a priority.

Structure Tents

Elite was amazing! They fully took care of our event from start to end. Throughout the entire process the owner worked with me directly and was very professional. The day of the event all his employees were professional and they set up extremely fast. Once the event was over they broke down quickly and cleaned up. I would highly recommend Elite to anyone.

Tent Rental FAQ
What size tent do I need for my event?
As a general rule, plan for 10 to 12 square feet per guest for a seated dinner and 6 to 8 square feet for a standing reception. Guest count, table layout, dance floor, and staging all affect the final footprint. Our team is glad to help you choose the best tent, accessories, and add-ons.
What types of event tents does Elite Events & Rentals offer?
We carry five tent styles: frame, keder, pole, sailcloth, and structure tents. Each is suited to different event formats, venue surfaces, and guest counts.
