It is not allowed to stick anything on tents walls or floors (no advertising tools, tapes, carpets etc.) without the written agreement of the company from which we rent the tents. However, if you would like to place something that will not affect the tent, and after its completion it will be easy to remove, you can apply for permission, but at the same time undertake that after the end of the event, you will restore the object of use to its original state.

For example, you can produce a banner to be hung inside the tent on the back wall. In such
a case, please produce a banner in the size of 2 m high, 3 m wide.
