Afon Events

Fantastic professional photos from Rosy and Richard who celebrated their wedding in one of our Arachnid stretch tents earlier this summer at The Courtyard Wales. Our rustic tables, cross back chairs and oak dance floor completed the theme.

Thank you Jayne for the very kind review!

We absolutely loved working with Whizz Kidz last week for their mini forest festival at candlestonwoods.

A rare photo of the Afon boss partying!

(We’ll let you decide who the boss is)

Thank you Georgia and Ben, this review is incredibly kind!

From the rustic furniture, dance floor and lighting for the celebration, to the tent for your ceremony. We loved helping you bring your DIY wedding to life!

Alongside the River Towy in Carmarthenshire - a beautiful setting for a wedding this weekend!

From the Capital to the Coast. A few shots from the weekend outside the Wales Millennium Centre - Canolfan Mileniwm Cymru, St Donat's Castle and our mega yoga tent at Love Trails Festival!

From Newport to Bosherston, the weather has been a bit rubbish this week ☔️ - so it gave our walls and doors a chance to come in to their own!

An absolutely stunning celebration for Jon and Carly in Narbeth, Pembrokeshire.

Thank you Lewis Fackrell Photography for the beautiful photos 📸

“Phil and the Afon team were wonderful!”

This week, guarded by the iconic 10-metre tall Newport Dragon, we have a 465sqm stretch tent at the ICCWales.

We’re providing one of the host venues for the first ever Royal College of Nursing Congress to be held in Wales!

The beautiful gardens at Hilton Court weddings are hard to beat for a late spring wedding in one of our stretch tents!

“Thanks for everything last week! The tent was great quality. It looked Fab and the guys just cracked on and sorted it all for us.”

Feedback from our client, Lauren at CH Comms, for their corporate event in Newport learlier this month 🤝

What a way to start our Spring season - on the rooftop of The Celtic Manor Resort!

Afon’s Christmas season is well and truly underway with Courts, Forage Farm Shop & Kitchen, Christmas at Bute Park and Pembrey Country Park!

Looking at the forecast over the next few weeks, our stretch tent winter windows and doors are going to come in especially useful.

Great to be working with Figure of Eight Events Ltd, Lottie Summer Events, 2Can Productions Limited & The M&Furniture Company on these events.

Another first for Afon & the UK! This winter, for everyone heading to Christmas at Bute Park, you will see the UK’s first ever RHI 6-sided Arachnid stretch tent.

It is fantastic to once again be part of Cardiff’s biggest winter festival. Keep an eye out for our huge Arachnid tent alongside some of our more familiar stretch tents.

At the start of this year we introduced our new RED stretch tents.

From the Cardiff half marathon and the Royal Welsh show to Freshers fairs and Music festivals, They have been up pretty much non stop all year.

We have to admit though, no one has asked for them for a wedding yet… maybe Game of Thrones put a stop to red weddings.

They've gone down that well that we’re adding more colours next year. AND we have a first-of-its-kind stretch tent arriving ahead of this winter.

Get in touch if you’d like them to be part of your
Christmas events.

We’re about to head into the winter season and so we thought we’d share some of the bespoke and permanent stretch tent installations we’ve done. From farm shops and pubs, to community centres and Christmas markets.

If you’re looking for cover for your outdoor areas, let us know as we’re finalising our Christmas calendar.

From weddings and garden parties to festivals and a county show - here are a few shots from the last couple of weeks including a sneak peak at this weekend’s The Growing Wild Festival at Dewslake Farm Campsite!
