At Peacock and Bow, we specialise in providing traditional pole and canvas marquees and a service tailored to meet the unique needs of TV and film crews.

Our traditional marquees serve as the perfect blank canvas for your production needs. Our structures can be fully customised to create any set or scene required, from intimate to grand setups. Whether it's an elegant baking set or a historic royal banquet scene, our marquees deliver.


The flexibility in size and layout means that no project is too big or too small. We work closely with your production team to recommend the ideal dimensions and features, ensuring the marquee complements your creative vision and technical requirements.
