		<description><![CDATA[Pop-up canopies are often used in the backyard, and these canopies can be set up and taken down for holidays like Labor Day.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Labor Day just passed, and one common aspect for this holiday is outdoor cookouts and get-togethers in the backyard. As a result, many backyard parties use pop-up canopies for their celebrations. These canopies can be used as a shelter for people needing shade, or, more specifically, they can be a covering for a table with plates of food for the afternoon or the evening. Regardless of how you use your canopies, all of these structures are referred to as pop-up canopies, EZ-up canopies, or party tents. Each of these structures is composed of a steel frame, typically powder coated steel to protect it from the elements, and a canopy made of polyester or medium-duty polyethylene. </p>
<p>Although Labor Day is over, the fall season is still warm enough for some backyard parties. When setting up one of these party tents for a get-together in your backyard, the structure is typically one or two pieces. With pop-up tents, the canopy may be attached to the metal frame, which folds out and upward in one piece. One of these tents can be set up by yourself or with a group of people. Once the tent is folded out, additional support for it during the party can be done with small metal anchors. These attach to the legs of the canopy and can be driven into the ground to keep the canopy firmly in place. </p>
<p>If you don’t already have a party tent (or know someone who owns one), one of these structures can be purchased through any <a href=http://www.a1tarps.com/>canopy</a> supplier. In addition, these structures can be modified by plastic walls or mosquito netting in case of insects. These walls or netting can be attached to the sides of the canopy and, in case you no longer need to use them, the material can be taken down or tied to the posts of the party tent.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Regardless of whether you call it a pop-up or party tent, a pop-up tent can be temporary shelter for a number of outdoor purposes.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Pop-up tent” is a term used for party tents. Essentially, they’re the same type of structure, only a pop-up tent is a bit more descriptive in terms of how the tent operates. In the realm of online tent and portable garage sales, pop-up or party tents are lighter shelters not used for permanent shelter and, as a result, they have various uses and, like the sturdier portable garage counterparts, come in a number of sizes. But, if you hear someone using the terms “party tent” and “pop-up tent,” they’re both interchangeable, as well as with “EZ-up canopy.” </p>
<p>If you need a tent for outdoor functions that can be set up easily, a party tent or pop-up tent is the structure to use. These structures can be stored easily and transported without any issues. In fact, they make optimal outdoor shelters, as they can be set up within minutes by one or two people. If you’re anticipating rain at a backyard party or beach trip, having one of these structures on hand will protect people, food, or valuables from getting wet. Similarly, if you need protection from the sun, one of these structures will provide shade and shelter for the afternoon. Whether you need a small shaded area at the beach or a larger tent for guests, such as with a wedding tent, this structure can be set up easily, stay in place, and be taken down. In addition, if you need additional modifications to the structure, mosquito nets or side walls can be installed without trouble.</p>
<p>What are some uses for this structure? Aside from whether you refer to it as a party or pop-up tent, the structure has numerous outdoor uses. If you’re planning a beach party or a backyard gathering, one of these tents can be set up as a place for shade. Outdoor markets are another place for these tents. Whether you have your own kiosk or need shade for a table, one of these pop-up tents can be brought along and set up to cover your goods and belongings. If the market, including farmers’ markets or flea markets, is already in the shade, one of these pop-up tents can still be brought along in case of rain. </p>
<p>When you need quick outdoor shelter, one of these structures can be brought along and set up to protect you and others from sun or rain.</p>

		<title>Party Tents: the Summer Shelter</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Party tents have a variety of uses outdoors, including being temporary shelter at home or the beach or as a tent at a flea market or any other outdoor event.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Summer often means increased use of tarps and canopies for shelter, and one such structure that gets additional use in the summer is a party tent, also known as a canopy tent, a pop-up tent, or an easy-up canopy. While this blog has covered the use of blue medium duty tarps for hurricanes and mesh canopies as low-light garden shelters for spring and summer, a party tent is one structure that doesn’t have a specific use, although it becomes ubiquitous with outdoor events during the warmer months.</p>
<p>A <a href=http://canopyhut.com/home.php?cat=249>party tent</a> has a number of uses as the result of its easy-to-assemble structure. Typically, a party tent is composed of a galvanized or powder-coated steel frame and a polyester canopy. Instead of dealing with tying down grommets and attaching various metal parts to a frame, a party tent is put up easily and taken down easily, as the frame is often a one-piece unit with a separate or attached canopy, hence the name “pop-up tent.” Because of its size, it’s easily portable and can be taken down, put in the back of a large car or truck, and set up again with ease and minimal, if no, hardware involved. </p>
<p>What are some of the uses for a party tent? A party tent can be used anywhere outdoors for temporary shelter. Some of the more popular uses include:<br />
• Backyard tent. With the sun outdoors, you’ll want to shade yourself and guests whenever you have a backyard party. One way to provide shade to everyone is with a small or medium-sized party tent that can be set up and act as the central location for backyard parties and barbecues.<br />
• Beach tent. Take a party tent to the beach when you have a group of four or more people coming. Instead of using a large beach umbrella, shade everyone and your things with a party tent.<br />
• Shelter for a flea market. If you ever go to a flea market to sell items in warmer weather, one way to protect your things – and yourself – from water damage is with a pop-up tent. These fit in a car and, at the first sight of rain, can be set up quickly.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A pop-up tent is an easy-to-set-up structure for temporary protection, and pop-up canopies, or EZ up canopies, can be used at a flea market and other locations.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When an outdoor flea market is put together, the event could be canceled because of rain. But if the flea market is rain or shine, you will need to protect the items you’re selling, be it clothes, furniture, books, or assorted small items. For some items, such as dishes, the rain won’t be as detrimental as it is to clothes or furniture, which could become soaked and warp the wood and bleed the fabric. </p>
<p>A canopy, particularly a pop-up or EZ up canopy, can be stored easily and quickly opened to protect your investments. A pop-up canopy is small enough to be kept in the back of a car or at a flea market booth and then assembled in case of an emergency. The primary benefit of a pop-up canopy is that it needs only one person to assemble it. As pop-up canopies are fairly common quick shelters, you might even have one at home that you have used for a backyard party or a family event at a beach. If not, most canopy dealers carry several types of pop-up canopies.</p>
<p>A pop-up canopy is constructed of an aluminum frame and a polyester or vinyl canopy. The roof is usually peaked for the rain to run off. In terms of setting up a pop-up canopy, no additional tools or parts are needed. While a permanent canopy like a portable garage will need to stay in place for months at a time, a pop-up canopy simply needs to go up and come down in a day. However, when setting up a pop-up canopy at a flea market, particularly if the flea market is set up on blacktop or asphalt, additional sandbags will be needed to keep the canopy in place. But if the flea market is outdoors on a dirt field, the pop-up canopy won’t need to be held in place with sandbags.</p>
