Tents, canopies and other temporary structures are popular film production rentals. They can replace trailers used for hair, makeup, and wardrobe or they can become the set needed for filming. They can also be used as equipment storage areas, break areas for lunch and snacks, or simply just shade and shelter from the outdoor elements.

Tents used for film production come in a variety of styles and sizes, and they can also be customized to fit the needs of the production. For example, holding tents can be customized to accommodate anywhere from just a few people to up to several thousand people.

These temporary structures can also be tailored to be completely open or have side walls, windows and even doors.
