In times of loss, an additional gathering space for families to mourn, remember, and find comfort together is needed.
At Peninsula Party Hire, we understand the challenge of organising commemorations. We have sensitively supported many families and marae by discreetly setting up the additional shelter, tables and seating required as a communal grieving space.
Why Choose a Marquee for a Funeral, Wake, or Tangi?
While often associated with celebrations, a marquee or big tent also provides a versatile resource and sheltered venue for funerals, wakes, and tangi. A marquee offers essential capacity to comfortably accommodate all attendees, providing shelter from unpredictable New Zealand weather. It creates a private, serene environment, allowing families to grieve, share kai, and remember loved ones without disruption. For tangi, a marquee provides crucial sheltered space for extended periods of gathering and remembrance, honouring cultural customs.
