Tent Rental Cost by Guest Count
How much does a tent really cost for 10 to 260 seated guests? Every size has a published price, with a clear list of what is — and isn't — included.
Tent Rental Prices by Guest Count (2026)
Tent pricing starts with one question: how many guests are sitting down? Match the guest count to the size, and the price follows. These are Apopka Tent Rentals' rates for Central Florida events — setup and teardown are included in every tent price below.

How Much Does a Tent for 100 Guests Cost?
A 100-guest seated event fits our 40×40 high peak tent: 1,600 square feet that seats 100–130 with room for a head table and a buffet line, for $1,519.99 per day with setup included. If your seated count is 80 or fewer, the 20×40 at $759.99 seats 64–80; add a dance floor to an 80-guest event and the 40×40 is the comfortable choice. The tent price is fixed by size — what moves the total is delivery distance, water barrels on hard surfaces, and what goes under the tent.
For your exact total, call or text 407-329-6882 with your date, address, and guest count, and you'll have a real number before the end of the day — or book online and see it at checkout.
Wedding Tent Rental Cost
Wedding tent pricing follows the same table above — the tent doesn't cost more because it's a wedding. A backyard wedding for up to 80 seated guests fits the 20×40 at $759.99 with setup included; 100–130 guests fit the 40×40 at $1,519.99, 160–200 the 40×60 at $2,639.99, and 220–260 the 40×80 at $3,519.99. What changes for weddings is everything under the tent: 60-inch round tables, chairs, floor-length linens, and a dance floor — all of which ride on the same delivery for one flat fee. See our wedding tent rentals page for complete packages.

What's NOT Included (Budget for These)
How to Save Money on a Tent Rental
- Size for seated guests, not the invite list. Typically 25–35% of invitees decline; a right-sized 20×40 ($759.99) instead of an oversized 40×40 ($1,519.99) saves $760.
- Bundle everything on one truck. Adding tables, chairs, and linens to the tent order means one delivery fee instead of paying a second vendor's minimums.
- Skip sidewalls in dry season. October through April, Central Florida weather rarely justifies them.
- Go off-peak. Friday and Sunday events, and summer dates, face less competition for inventory than spring and fall Saturdays.
- Ask for the layout check. We'll confirm your guest count actually needs the size you think it does — sometimes it doesn't, and the smaller tent wins.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a tent for 100 guests cost?
A 100-guest seated event fits our 40×40 high peak tent, which seats 100–130 with room for a head table and buffet line, for $1,519.99 per day with setup included.

What is included in the tent rental price?
Every tent price includes professional setup and teardown — our crew installs and anchors the tent and returns after your event to remove everything. Tents on pavers, concrete, or driveways need water barrels ($25 each, confirmed by phone after booking). A certificate of insurance is available free for venues that require one.
Is delivery included in tent rental prices?
No — delivery is a separate flat-rate fee starting at $59, which covers up to 15 miles from our Apopka, FL shop. Beyond 15 miles it's calculated by mileage at checkout. Tables, chairs, and linens ride on the same truck under the same single fee.
How can I lower my tent rental cost?
Right-size the tent to seated guests rather than total invitations, skip sidewalls outside storm season, bundle tables and chairs into the same delivery to avoid a second vendor's fees, and book off-peak dates — spring and fall Saturdays carry the most demand.
