Comparing Sailcloth Tents? Here's What Actually Matters
Planning a wedding, private celebration or corporate event and weighing up Sailcloth Tents? One of the biggest mistakes we see people make is comparing Sailcloth Tents by the name alone. In reality, there's no universal standard, so two tents can share a name and still be very different spaces.
Here's what sets the Truly Yours Sailcloth collection apart, and why those details are worth comparing.
14m Wide - more room, more flexibility, more possibilities.
Timber Centre Poles - natural warmth that becomes part of the aesthetic.
Authentic Sailcloth Fabric - the soft, romantic glow these tents are loved for.
Size varies more than you'd expect
Our premium Sailcloth collection is 14 metres wide. It's common to see 10 metre options in the market too, and the difference in usable space adds up fast.
Sailcloth Tent 14m Wide (Truly Yours) 10m Wide
14m Round 154m² 74m²
Double Peak 240m² 134m²
Triple Peak 325m² 194m²
That's over 130m² of extra covered space in a Triple Peak, room to breathe with your floorplan, whether that's a bigger bar, a lounge area, wet weather ceremony option or simply more space around the dance floor.
Our tip: when comparing tents, ask for the actual dimensions, not just the name.
The poles are part of the design
Some Sailcloth Tents use aluminium centre poles. Ours are timber, and it changes the whole feel of the space. Timber brings warmth and texture, turning a structural necessity into a feature people notice and remember.
The magic is in the light
Our tents use authentic Sailcloth fabric, which filters natural light through the day and softens into a warm glow as evening sets in. It's the detail people struggle to describe until they've stood inside one.
Size, materials, finer details, they're what turn a tent into an unforgettable space. If you're comparing options, we're always happy to talk you through the differences and help you weigh things up properly. Because choosing your Sailcloth Tent should feel exciting, not confusing.
