When it comes to quick and easy shelter, a gazebo will have you covered, literally!

Picnics in the park are great fun until you arrive to set up and notice that every family and their dog have decided to throw a 5-year-old birthday party on the same day and all of the pre-built shade areas have been snatched up before you even bat an eyelid. This can lead to despair especially if the weather look s like it will turn out extra warm, or simply come in cloudy and provide some liquid from the skies. With a portable snap together shelter like a gazebo you can be sure to provide enough shade and shelter to your cohort to keep everyone happy and enjoying the day.

Beach hangs in the summer heat are great for those with families, or groups of friends who have just got their driver’s license and can provide hours and hours of fun over weekends and school holidays. As much as we remind everyone of our family members to slop on their sunscreen and cover as much skin as possible, there will always be those that ignore, forget, or simply spend too much time under the golden glow of the sun without noticing. A great way to counter this is to chuck up a bit of extra shelter in the form of a beach tent style gazebo. Not only does this provide shade around vehicles to keep them cool, but also providing that valuable shaded sanctuary for people to chill out for a bit of respite out of the sun. If nothing else, it will surely provide an extra obstacle or six and out marker for the family game of cricket.

Backyard BBQs can quickly blow out in terms of standing space for those neighbours you went overboard in inviting, and this can make for some dreary days in the sun or leave people standing out in the cold on a wintery day. But if your backyard doesn’t have enough entertainment space as it is, then adding a pop-up gazebo is definitely a sure-fire way to rectify this on a not so permanent basis, allowing you to place it where ever you decide. With this is mind you’ll be able place it further down the back for the rowdy group of teenagers to run amok without disturbing the older guests at the party. Making sure you have enough space to allow everyone to opportunity to take cover, will keep people coming back for more and make sure your family BBQs are the ones that people enjoy coming to, not to mention mum’s coleslaw!

Formal Events are held in a range of different places these days, and it could be a wedding or engagement party at the beach, in the park, beside the river, or in a paddock at a boutique gin distillery in the country. Wherever the location, having enough space is definitely something you are going to need high on the menu in case the weather turns sour, or the sun beams down with a little more force than expected. Pop up marquees are perfect for that added space for any event and create great spaces for eating, harbouring tables for presents, sitting space or for keeping the dance floor dry apart from the odd wine spillage here and there. Quick, cheap, and easy make these gazebos a definite option for any formal get together and won’t have you spending all day constructing them or pulling them down once the show is over. And just think, if you go ahead and buy a handful for your upcoming function, you could even use them in future events of your own, or simply offer them to friends and family for their events and applications that may require extra cover. Who knows, maybe you could even hire them out to your friends for a small fee and that can go straight back into the beer fund each time, helping to keep the universe spinning.

Extra pool shade is invaluable in summer and sometimes the old shade sail just isn’t going to cut it, so adding a semi-permanent fixture like a gazebo sun shade is a great way to keep the sun off the kid’s backs despite them using half a tube of sunscreen on each other before taking the first dive. With lightweight designs and simple harnessing, these structures are easily moveable and can be positioned to keep the sun off from just about any direction. Perfect for keeping the esky full of beers or soft drinks cold or provide some shelter for the cheese platter being shared between the girls, whatever the reason, keep the sun away with a simple pop-up design, or two if you wish!

Vehicle protection can be something that properties lack these days, despite yard space, so options like gazebos and pop-up sunshades are a great cheap way to keep the sun off of your duco while you are parked up at home enjoying the weather in the backyard. If you’re lacking garage space heading into winter and the likelihood of hailstones makes you grimace for your paint and panel, then using a gazebo to create some weatherproofing could save you having to make an insurance claim following rain and wind events. The PVC outer will do a bit in keeping those little ice chips from landing on your pride and joy or keep the sun from causing early fading and paint peel.
