ROYAL VISIT

C&S were delighted to provide the marquee to shelter her majesty & local dignitaries from the elements when she recently visited Scarborough to open the new Open Air Theatre.

But, the mini heat wave at the time of her visit meant that structure wasn’t needed after all . So, the C&S team pitched up at 7am & removed the marquee before her majesty arrived at 10am.

OPEN DAY CANCELLED - BY ROYAL APPOINTMENT!

We are delighted to have been chosen to provide the marquee for the upcoming Royal visit to Scarborough this week. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh will officially open the newly restored Open Air Theatre in North Bay on Thursday 20^th May and our team and marquee will be there to ensure that they enjoy the day, whatever the weather.

This does mean, however, that our build team are having to focus their time elsewhere, so our scheduled Open Day has had to be cancelled.
