3 Tips for Creating Halloween Party Tents of Terror

Are you hoping to dazzle the neighborhood’s trick-or-treaters this year? Perhaps you’re looking to capitalize on the spooky holiday as a way to raise funds for your favorite cause. Either way, why not take a second to read our tips for setting up Halloween party tents of terror? Here they are:

Party Tents of Terror Tip #1: Consider the Audience Size & Exhibitions

Before making your party tent purchase, consider your Halloween shindig’s audience size and exhibitions. You’ll want to make sure that the party tents are large enough to accommodate the exhibits and the crowd safely. At Canopies and Tarps, we have a multitude of party tents that would be suitable for various size Halloween events. Two of them are the 14’ x 20’ 1-5/8” Diameter Luxury Party Tent and the 14’ x 32’ 1-5/8” Diameter Luxury Party Tent. Both of the party tents are fire retardant. They also come outfitted with sidewalls, clear plastic windows and standard end doors. Thus, they’ll be able to accommodate good size crowds.

Party Tents of Terror Tip #2: Consider the Age Groups

We’d also suggest that you think about the ages of the people that you expect to visit your party tent of terror. After all, some Halloween exhibits can be quite scary. If you plan on a mixed crowd, two party tents may be in order. That way, you can easily keep the little kids away from the truly terrifying displays. One item that would be perfect for the kiddies’ area is the 20’ x 20’ Eureka Capri Party Canopy. It has a funky, open shape that could be decorated to look like a giant spider or friendly bug.

To make the party tent look like a spider, shine a low-temperature, LED purple spotlight onto its exterior. Then create a spider’s head and legs out of garbage bags. Afterward, place the head above the front door and the legs along the party tent’s sides. Directions for making garbage bag spiders are readily available online. When you are finished, fill the party tent with child-friendly displays.

Party Tents of Terror Tip #3: Separate the Food from the Fright

Lastly, contemplate keeping the food separate from the frights. The benefits of doing so are two-fold. First, you won’t have to worry about food preparation and servers getting in the way of the exhibits. Second, it will allow people who would rather not be frightened at least enjoy the refreshments.

If you do decide to take our advice, be sure to check out our other party tents, party chairs and party tables too. We have many that would be ideal for your Halloween event’s refreshment area. To learn more about them and the other party items that we have available, contact us.
