What is a pop-up gazebo?

Pop-up Gazebos or Permanent Structures

The key benefit to a pop-up gazebo over a permanent structure is its flexibility and versatility - you can take it down and set it up as required. Typically, when people want a temporary or semi-permanent structure, they choose an instant shelter or pop-up gazebo. 

Pop-up gazebos:

• Are easy to dismantle and take down, so you can change the location of the gazebo easily
• Can be packed away in adverse weather to avoid weather damage
• Come with full waterproof covers that can be fully customisable
• Are very well-suited for smaller spaces
• Are typically considerably cheaper than permanent structures.

Permanent gazebos:

• Can have bespoke elaborate shapes and designs
• Are well-suited for when people want attractive garden structures
• Take many days to set up and can be near-impossible to completely remove
• Are typically much more expensive
• Can be more weather-resistant and more comfortable in adverse weather
