Hi, I’m Fred and I’m the owner of Holmsted Events.

Hi, I’m Fred and I’m the owner of Holmsted Events.

I have worked for over 24 years in the events industry. I started my career with a marquee company in Australia erecting large spaces 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.

Seeing a gap in the market for alternative options to the usual frame marquees for weddings and events, I started Holmsted Events in 2013 initially supplying just Tipis. Since then we have also started supplying Sailcloth Marquees and more recently the stunning Tree Marquee which is only one of two in the country. 

Here at Holmsted Events, I have a strong team behind me both in the office and out on site.
