DPRM Consular Office

Our main tent, the Democratic People's Republic of Marqueea Consular Office, is the heart and soul of the consulate.

It was bought in 2023 to replace the venerable FCKU Consular Office, which sadly passed away at EMFCamp 2022, and moved on to the great halls of tent valhalla (CND).

It is a Pagoda³ XG 6x6m Marquee, manufactured by Crown Canopies.

Dimensions

L x D x H: 6 x 6 x 2.4m (total height is 5.3m)
Area: 36m²

Transport

The tent is transported by van, as the longest part is 2.8m long. The total weight is about 190kg.

Stakes

The tent has eight stakes, only four are needed in normal weather, with an additional four for tie-down during storms, using ratchet straps.

The stakes are 750mm long and a 5-6kg (12-14lb) sledgehammer is required to drive them into the ground. A stake puller is used to remove the stakes from the ground. We have a UHD 3-way stake puller, from the marquee's manufacturer.

Suggestions

  • The tent is ripe for a robust RGBWW lighting system.
  • Some decoration is sorely needed. Self adhesive vinyl decals are clean, removable, and won't damage the tent's material.
