Fred Sapsted
Hi, I’m Fred and I’m the owner of Holmsted Events.
I’ve worked more than 15 years in the events industry. I started in the industry erecting large marquees in Australia for a national exhibition company. Coming home to the UK, I moved to a large events company in Manchester, specialising in marquees for weddings and other events. I returned to Kent in 2003 to work for the South East’s main supplier of marquees and event equipment and after a short time I moved up to manage their marquee division.
In 2012, I set up Holmsted Events specialising in tipis for weddings and events in Kent and the South East

Backed up with a solid team
Setting a tipi up for an event takes time and we’re fortunate to a have a great team behind us. From planning to cleaning we take the small steps necessary to ensure your event is the best it can be.
