A birthday celebration in a marquee may not always spring to mind when considering options for an 18th birthday party. But, funnily enough, we are seeing an upsurge in interest, as marquees can offer some not so obvious perks. And an 18th Birthday is a very important milestone in our life and a good reason to celebrate with a party, so why not make it unique?
Due to many venues closing their doors to 18th birthday parties due to alcohol licensing it has become very popular to hold the party at a parents’ home, in a marquee setting. At Crystal Marquee Hire Surrey, we have over 40 years of experience in planning and executing the perfect party, no matter where the marquee is to be located.
Hiring a 18th Birthday Party Marquee
It makes sense to hold the whole 18th birthday party event within the confines of the marquee set-up, space permitting! This approach takes out the potential of any mess being made within your own home. We can even provide themed toilet units so that your house can remain locked throughout the 18th birthday party celebration.
So, to start with, you can choose your birthday party theme if you do want one. Like a fancy dress party theme? Then why not aid the visual for party goers by recreating your theme within the marquee itself. This is something we can easily achieve. Whether you want an ‘Oscars’, ‘Cartoon Characters’, ‘Beach’, or any other theme we can dress and style the marquee interior to match your chosen theme requirement.
18th Birthday Party Theme Ideas
Venue ideas for a birthday party are bountiful, but for a special birthday celebration, such as an 18th, then treat them to a birthday party they’ll always remember. A special birthday deserves a great party, so why not make it a day to remember and hire out a marquee?
An eighteenth birthday represents an important age to celebrate, and this usually marks the end of school and the start of university or a full-time job. In most cases it will be one of the last occasions when all the school friends you have made over the years will be together. Many parents are therefore keen to throw a party to remember.
Party in the Garden Planning
A marquee party in your garden to celebrate an 18th birthday can be the perfect answer to provide guests with all they need and more.
Here at Crystal Marquee Hire we offer a free, no obligation site visit, meaning we can provide you with a tailored marquee and interior equipment that will suit your budget.

We can provide a full range of interior equipment including starlight ceilings, linings, themed panels, LED bars, dance floors, lighting, and heating. All of this we can help with.
We have created some unique marquee venues for birthday parties across Surrey and surrounding areas lately, check out some of our latest creations here – party marquee themes.
A 18th marquee birthday party venue
Many believe a marquee set-up to be a bare frame covering, with tables and chairs thrown in and is just considered to be an intermediate point before the real party gets going. Well, this is no longer the case, not with our marquee party set-ups as we can tailor them to suit any style or taste. We have a wide range of bars, soft seating, dance floors and lighting to transform our marquees into a birthday party environment.
In fact, there’s not much we can’t cater for within the realms of marquee party themes. As you may have already seen from our marquee gallery, we have created birthday party marquees that have followed themes with great success.
An 18th is always a bit more special in terms of a birthday year to celebrate. Here at Crystal Marquee Hire we understand this, and will work with you to ensure the theme, set-up and all-round feel matches any requirements you have.
We also have a wide range of suppliers we recommend including caterers, DJs, and photo booths.
We have provided marquees throughout Surrey for nearly 40 years, and there is not much we have not catered for within that time. From scenic marquee events to bespoke party affairs, we’ve covered them all. So, get in touch today and let us know what your ideal venue is, and we’ll get to work on it for you.
18th Birthday Marquee Requirements
We have seen a large increase in the hire of our marquees for 18th birthday parties over the last couple of years. The main reason according to our clients is that very few venues welcome 18th birthday parties due to the possibility of under-age drinking and the fines or loss of licence they may suffer.
That’s no reason why your 18th birthday party celebration should be put off, a good marquee opens lots of potential ideas.
