About Us

OUR STORY

It all began in 2006 when two product designers set up a marquee company, which was largest provider of Giant Scandinavian Teepees and exclusive provider of US Sperry Tents in the UK. Frustrated by the limited furniture and furnishings readily available for the rental industry, the team searched far and wide, sourcing the latest product styles worldwide and designing some trend-setting pieces themselves. Realising other hire companies wanted to follow their lead, they launched PapaShop in 2016 which is now Event Shed in 2022.

OUR APPROACH

Design and style is at the heart of everything we do at Event Shed. We’re constantly evolving our collection to include the latest trends so that they appeal to your clients. Our most popular products include our PAPAFLEX: Event, Marquee, and Tent Matting.
