Tent Safety and Access Accessories
What Are Tent Accessories
Tent accessories are the difference between a tent that shelters guests and a tent that completes an event. Sidewalls, lighting, drapery, flooring, and climate control transform a basic structure into a polished, comfortable, and on-brand space. Almost every Everything Entertainment tent rental can be paired with accessories to match your theme, season, and guest count.
Accessory Categories
Tent Sidewalls
- Solid vinyl walls - block out your party space and mask unsightly outside areas.
- Clear walls - look out at a beautiful property and let in sunshine while staying protected.
- Cathedral-style window walls - privacy with window areas that let in sunlight.
Tent Lighting
- Bistro string lights - the perfect feel for a rustic theme party.
- Crystal chandeliers - ideal for a fancier celebration.
- LED Par Cans - light the tent in almost any color to match your theme.
- LED High-Bay Lights - bright, clean white lighting for the whole space.
Tent Decor
- Fabric ceiling liners - transform the entire feel of the tent interior.
- Fabric swags - tie in your party's theme colors.
- Fabric leg drapes - hide tent legs and add a personalized, polished look.
Tent Flooring
- Interlocking plastic sub-flooring - runs with the contour of your ground.
- Leveled flooring - flattens the party area on almost any terrain.
- Finishes - black, green, or colored turf, real carpet, plain or wood-looking vinyl, or wood planking.
Temporary Climate Control
- Tent fans - circulate air and attach to the tent frame so they take up no floor space.
- Portable air conditioners - keep summer guests comfortable.
- Fuel-fired heaters - natural gas, propane, or kerosene models for open-air warmth.
- Electric forced-air heaters - for enclosed tents.
- Electric radiant heaters - for areas that may be partially open.

How Accessories Extend Tent Styles
Accessories work across every tent style in our fleet. Pair clear walls with a clear top tent for an all-glass garden effect, drape a high peak marquee to emphasize its peaks, or light a sailcloth tent from within to make the fabric glow. Sidewalls and climate control make rooftop venues usable in more months of the year - see our rooftop tent page for details.
