“The planning, implementation and dismantling of the tentage has been to a very high standard with no complaints received from Turnberry Golf Club on whose ground the tents were erected. The quality of the tentage provided by Arena, together with the interior fittings and furnishings, helped to make this year’s Open Championship one of the best for many years with many complimentary remarks about the whole layout of the village. This, combined with the drama of Tom Watson almost making history, helped make it one of the most memorable weeks in the game of golf. We look forward to working with Arena Structures again at St Andrews next year when tentage and ancillaries will be provided to cope with 200,000 people over the week.”

“I wanted to express my thanks to Arena Structures and the onsite team for the fantastic works recently achieved for the State Visit of the President of the United Mexican States. In response to the request to derig all three pavilions within a period of 36 hours, Arena Structures rose to the challenge and made sure that everything was cleared from site, on time and with no impact on the ceremonial events taking place. This was a very tall order to fulfil. However, this was achieved and highlights the calibre of the operatives on the job.”

“My trip to the tented village take down last week reminded me that I owe you a letter of thanks for all that your team achieved at the BMW PGA Championship this year. Common consensus was that this was the best year ever. In particular, the 18th Green and Village were the best presented on the tour. Arena’s contribution to this statement of excellence is very much appreciated by all at the European Tour, BMW and Wentworth Club. We have a huge number of visitors and never before have I had so many enquiries regarding how and who helped achieve this level of presentation. A lot of this concerned your tentage. I feel confident that BMW continues to be a great shop window for Arena’s talent and product.”
Jamie Birkmyre, Wentworth Club, Director of Championship Management

I am writing to thank you and all of your team at Arena Structures for all of your hard work and effort during the successful implementation of The Ryder Cup at the K Club. We have had many comments on the quality of the workmanship, and particularly the Media Centre, which has been lauded by the media as the best ever working environment which they have been presented at a golf tournament, and all of your team’s work through the weather of the week that prevailed was outstanding.”
Richard G. Hills, Director

“I would like to thank you for the concerted efforts you made in assisting us both during the build up to the St Leger 2008 and during the festival itself. We had well over 60,000 people here throughout the four days, including 26,000 on Leger Day, and the feedback has been very positive. We have taken massive strides forward and the hard work has paid off. Please pass my thanks to all your team as it was definitely a team effort.”

“The triple deck Arena Structures hospitality suites are an integral part of the Cheltenham Festival experience for so many of our hospitality guests. Whatever the weather our guests are comfortable in these uniquely robust suites, with great viewing over the racecourse.”

Cheltenham Racecourse
“Arena Structures work to the highest standards but are always looking for ways to improve their products, they contribute a crucial part of our course infra-structure. It has been a pleasure working through the process of combining previously separate hospitality structures to create this incredible new triple-decker structure for the John Smith’s Grand National.”
Aintree’s operations manager
“People don’t believe that this infrastructure is only built for a week’s tournament. Arena Group is so good at co-ordinating with each other and with all our other suppliers to ensure that everything comes in at the right time. One of our first challenges was the fact that we needed blue seats for the new sponsor. I’ve worked with both Arena Seating and Arena Structures in branding the whole event and they’ve been really helpful. They’ve come back to me at every stage of the design process with different ideas for different materials across the site and have particularly helped this year in developing an area solely for the public.”
