20' x 40' Elite High Peak Tent
Our most requested wedding tent. Same 800 sq ft as the Standard 20×40 — the difference is the peak height and how it reads in photographs.
Specification
What this tent actually holds
Capacity figures assume seating only. If you also want a dance floor, bar or buffet under the same cover, subtract that area first — the calculator does it for you.
| Footprint | 20′ × 40′ — 800 sq ft |
|---|---|
| Clearance needed | 26′ × 46′ (adds 3′ per side for anchoring) |
| Seated — 6′ banquet tables | 80 guests · 10 tables |
| Seated — 60″ round tables | about 64 guests · 8 tables |
| Standing / cocktail | 160 guests |
| Space per seated guest | 10.0 sq ft |
| Surfaces | Grass (staked) · driveway, patio or pavement (ballast weights) |
| Tent, from | $999 |
| Delivery, setup & takedown | One combined fee, varies by town — not included above |
Rounds seat about 20% fewer people than 6′ banquet tables in the same tent — they use floor space less efficiently. Both figures above account for that, so you can order tables against them.
Best for
- Backyard weddings
- Milestone anniversaries
- Formal dinners
Probably not this one if…
Casual backyard use where the peak is wasted on you.
Same footprint, different look
The 20' x 40' Standard A-Frame Tent covers the identical 800 sq ft and seats the same 80 guests — for $240 less. You are choosing peak height and appearance, not space.
Questions
20' × 40' HP tent FAQ
How many people fit under a 20' × 40' HP tent?
A 20' x 40' Elite High Peak Tent covers 800 sq ft and seats 80 guests at 6′ banquet tables, about 64 at 60″ rounds, or holds 160 standing. That is roughly 10.0 sq ft per seated guest.
How much space do I need for a 20' × 40' HP tent?
Allow 26′ × 46′ of clear, reasonably level ground — the tent is 20′ × 40′, plus about 3′ on every side for stakes or ballast. Check for overhead branches and buried utilities before the crew arrives.
How much does a 20' × 40' HP tent cost?
The 20' x 40' Elite High Peak Tent starts at $999 for the tent. Delivery, setup and takedown are billed as one combined fee that varies by town and is not included in that price — call (860) 265-4869 with your address and we will quote it up front. Add-ons such as sidewalls or lighting are priced separately.
Is delivery included in the price?
No. Tent prices cover the tent itself. Delivery, setup and takedown are billed together as a single fee based on which town you are in — so you get one number, not a line-item breakdown. Call us with your address and we will quote it up front.
