About Us

Jedi Masters at Events in Tents

Over The Moon offer a special mix of skills.

Why? Because We Love Music

Over The Moon started in the events industry in 1996. We were initially a group of DJ’s who loved their house, techno and trance music and wanted the opportunity to play to audiences. The best way to achieve that was to put on our own productions and this we first did in June 1996 at a Peterborough pub.  Within the year we had grown to organise outdoor parties on a friends field in Rutland and started doing monthly all-night parties at a hotel in Lincolnshire.

In 2007 we began Over The Moon Tents to earn a living from the mountain of knowledge we had gained in ten years of event production. Since 2007 we have been Over The Moon with the places and people we have met in the UK. Music is still at the core of why we do this. We are regular suppliers to the UK’s music festival industry, including the premier global event that is Glastonbury Music And Arts Festival. 

We have always enjoyed innovation and developing as people and a company. From the earliest days, when we were introducing the new dance music sounds that soundtracked the nineties, adopting digital DJ and lighting technology when it arrived; and offering the new stretch tents to the UK following their premier at The Showmans Show in 2006.

Tent Masters with Jedi rigging skills

A Jedi Tent Master has learnt the following truths

Pass on what you have learned.
Feel the Force. (Especially true with Stretch Tents)

A Jedi must have the most deepest commitment, the most serious mind. (Over the Moon have spent thousands of hours honing our tent and event craft.)

A Jedi’s strength flows from the Force.

Tents stay erect due to the presence and balance of force.

A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge (and protection from the elements.)

Try not. DO. There is not try. You must feel the force around you (and the tent) You must learn control.

Our work is our life

At the core of our work is the knowledge that good planning is fundamental to good events. We like to get involved with your ideas right from the start and can offer a complete Event Design & Build service.

Our methods and techniques have been honed in 20 years’ working in the events industry. We know the choice of tents have a positive impact on the enjoyment of your event. Our products are always fit for purpose.

We want our clients to feel “Over The Moon” with our tents, crew and services. That’s why we chose the name.

“We just wanted to write and thank you for everything you did to make our wedding day so special. The tent was the perfect addition to our venue and looked absolutely amazing. It provided our guests with the perfect chill out area and everyone commented on how unique it was. The flags were a wonderful surprise on the day and just added to the look.

 

– Leynah Bruce

“But my main thanks goes to James Parker of Over the Moon Tents and his Team. James has been organising Trystonbury for 6 years and year after year he keeps raising the bar…. This was a master class in logistics and over coming significant obstacles to make the event simply perfect…thanks James.”

 

– Andrew Try, ComXo

Working with OTMT last year in Edinburgh was an absolute pleasure, both from a professional point of view and from a personal one. Not only did the team agree take on our somewhat ambitious project to put up canvas and pole tents on hard standing but their reliable and friendly approach enabled us to plan it from opposite ends of the UK.

 

– Emily Elwas , Flylancer

James, Just a quick email to thank you SO much for everything you did at Quarry Wood. It looked amazing, incredible, wonderful, and so many more adjectives.

 

– Vicky Macaskie, PA to Lord Margadale
