Dhillon Tents · Planning guide

Room for the party. A plan for every detail.

Planning a birthday, graduation or baby shower? Dhillon Tents brings together party tent rentals, tables and chairs for Brampton and GTA celebrations. Start with what your guests will do, then choose the covered space around it.

Birthday parties: separate dining from activities

A tent rental for a birthday party can cover the meal, cake and a comfortable place to sit. List the activities that need their own space, such as games, a photo area or a gift table. Keep the entrance clear so guests can move between the tent and the rest of the celebration.

If everyone will eat together, use the seated guest count. If the event is mostly mingling, tell us how much seating you still want. Standing capacity alone does not describe the furniture layout.

Graduation parties: plan for the busiest moment

For an open-house graduation, the total number invited may be larger than the number present at once. Share both the expected peak attendance and the number of people who need seats together. A buffet, drinks station and photo backdrop each need space even when guests arrive at different times.

For a tent rental for a graduation party in Brampton or a nearby GTA city, include the full address and your event hours so we can review delivery and pickup around the celebration.

Baby showers: leave room around the tables

A tent rental for a baby shower often needs seated dining, a gift area and space for shared activities. Choose the table shape around the gathering you want, then account for a dessert table and any decorations that use floor space. Let us know where guests will enter and where food will be served.

A starting size for your party

Dhillon Tents uses 40 seated or 60 standing guests per 400 sq ft as an initial estimate. A 20 × 20 tent therefore starts at 40 seated or 60 standing, while a 20 × 30 starts at 60 seated or 90 standing. Furniture, aisles, food service and site requirements can reduce the usable guest capacity.

Our tent size guide compares all 11 sizes. Use the interactive planner when you are ready to build a rental list.

Make one list for the whole celebration

  • Tent and preferred table style.
  • Guest chairs and any extra seating outside the tent.
  • Food, cake, drinks and gift tables.
  • Lighting for the covered area if the party continues into the evening.
  • Event date, address, surface and delivery access.

For Brampton party rentals, begin with the local setup guide. We also review requests for Caledon, Mississauga and other GTA service areas; delivery availability is confirmed for your location.
