About Discount Party Hire
Discount Party Hire is a family owned and run business of 40 years, working from a Cabarita depot in Sydney's inner west with a second base at Fairy Meadow near Wollongong. The core of the business is free-standing marquees, available in 4m, 6m and 10m spans with white or clear walls, and sized from a 4m x 4m up to a 6m x 30m that seats 200 at round tables or 300 theatre style. Around the marquees they hire the rest of the setup: trestle and round tables, white plastic, folding and tiffany chairs, linen, crockery, glassware and cutlery, plus awnings and fete gear for festivals. Prices are published size by size rather than quoted blind. A 4m x 4m marquee is $550 and a 4m x 16m $2,200. In the 6m span, a 6m x 6m for 40 guests is $950 and a 6m x 15m for 100 guests is $2,350, with silk lining and non-slip timber flooring priced separately for every size. Ten metre spans start at $2,553 for a 10m x 10m. Chandeliers for 10m marquees run from $138 for one to $690 for five, and dance floors are $35 a square metre or priced by fixed size from $483. Packages bundle the lot for 40, 60, 80 or 100 guests in either a sit-down or cocktail format, from $1,099. Each takes in the marquee, lighting, chairs or bar tables, cloths, bar socks and beer bins. An ultimate wedding package for 100 covers a lined marquee with timber floors and clear walls, an attached bar marquee, a catering marquee, full place settings, glassware, a dance floor and a cool room, with delivery, installation and pick-up included. Between May and August, marquee bookings come with heaters at no charge.
