They’re the features that your guests will notice.

Whether you have a theme in mind, or just want help with the finer details, our superbly creative team will help you pull of a 21st birthday party with wow-factor and style.

To get you started, here are some of the questions we are most commonly asked by those wanting to create the perfect twenty-first. If you have any further questions, simply give us a call.

Where’s the best place to hold a 21st celebration?

Turning 21 is a big deal, so you’ll want a memorable party venue to celebrate your 21st birthday in style. Just heading to a wine bar or clubbing with your mates won’t do – you need to set the bar high. How memorable you make it will depend on the vibe, but trust us when we say, the venue will play a huge part in that.

If you are stuck for ideas about what venue to choose, look no further. We think our tents are the ultimate scene setters. In a range of styles, from elegant and sophisticated to sultry and exotic, an Arabian Tents marquee can bring all the pizazz you need to make sure your venue is the perfect backdrop to a perfect event. The great news is they can be set up just about anywhere. How about in the grounds of a luxurious hotel (ideal if you need a place for your guests to stay), or in a countryside space to create your own mini-festival?

Who should I invite to my 21st birthday party?

Now while it’s tempting to just invite friends, there’s no doubt your family will want to be involved for this special occasion. That’s where our tents come in. With options to create separate chill out areas, you’ll have a place your family can relax and enjoy the atmosphere and another for a more intense party atmosphere. With our tents, you can invite everyone you love.

What’s a good theme for a 21st birthday party?

The imagination knows no bounds when it comes to the 21st birthday party. As this is to be a celebration you’ll never want to forget, think ostentatious and fun – you can be as bold as you like! We’ve seen some brilliant fancy dress costumes over the years. Don’t hold back. If you are overwhelmed by choices, our themed tents can take the headache out of the decision making. Or take a look at our ideas gallery for inspiration.

Do I need a party planner?

Unless you are super organised and confident you can pull off a spectacular party, hiring an event organiser is a good idea. You’ll still be able to put forward all of your ideas, but let someone else worry about making sure everything happens. We’re passionate about creating perfect party atmospheres, so why not leave it to our experts?

Do I need to provide food for my guests?

Food may seem a bit old school at a party, but trust us when we say a little bit of food puts mileage into your celebrations. You don’t want your guests tipsy and falling over themselves too early! We partner with some great caterers who can provide anything from sit down meals to gorgeous finger buffets and impressively sophisticated canapés (remember, you are a grown up now).
