A fast-growing events company has built its biggest tent to date - to host a gathering of celebrities and royals at a charity golf event.

Events Under Canvas at Capel St Mary, near Ipswich, built a large tent to accommodate 350 guests including former rugby player Mike Tindall, wife Zara Philips and a number of royals and celebrities.

They were at The Belfry Golf Resort in Birmingham in May for an annual celebrity charity bash hosted by the sportsman - who is the son-in-law of Princess Anne.

This year, Events Under Canvas built its largest ever Sailcloth Tent to house the celebrities for main gala dinner. 

The event - now in its 11th year - draws celebrities including Jamie Redknapp, Denise Van Outen, Ronan Keating, James Nesbitt and Brian McFadden.

The Events Under Canvas team worked for months with Mike Tindall's team to create the space. It is the second time it has worked on the event.

The company provides its tents and tipis for around 400 events a year but this was its biggest yet.

The vast main marquee was built by a team of eight, well-experienced crew, led by their foreman Kem Izzet.

They provided all the lighting, flooring, dining furniture and bars, which are stored and maintained from their warehouses in Capel.

They worked with Human Nature Events - a Bury St Edmunds business - which transformed the internal space using foraged branches and foliage from around the golf resort.

Luxury toilets and generators were brought on site, along with a catering tent and a full field kitchen.

Kem said: “We treat all our customers the same, and always ensure our tents are presented to the highest quality.

"However, doing events for celebrities and royals such as this high profile one, does put pressure on and makes us keep our standards high."

A senior supervisor at the firm - Curtis George - built the impressive four metre round party bar from scratch, he added.

Jenna Ackerley, founder and managing director of Events Under Canvas said it was a "great testament" to the team that they had secured a booking on this scale.

“We’re well used to hosting spectacular events, but this one is extra special," she said.

"It’s such an iconic structure and oozes glamour."

Photos from the event were due to be published in Hello Magazine.
