About this product
Providing protection from both the sun and light rain, the Event Shelter's distinctive, simple yet sturdy structure is quick and easy to set up. Featuring Coleman UVGuard technology for increased protection against UV rays, the Event Shelter is available with a full range of coordinating accessories for added flexibility during outdoor events. Coleman Event Shelters are designed for occasional use such as short camping trips, weekend garden gatherings and sporting events, and should not be used as a permanent or long-term shelter solution. UVGuard sun protection - laboratory-tested fabrics with SPF50 help protect against the sun's harmful UV rays. WeatherTec technology provides comfort and protection from light rain while enjoying the outdoors. Generous head height allows users to stand upright comfortably beneath the shelter. Strong steel frame construction with secure PVC plug connections for quick and easy setup. Extra stability provided by feet with fixing points that allow the shelter to be screwed or pegged to the ground. Large 13.32m sheltered area provides ample shade while roof vents help hot air escape from the canopy.

Sturdy, easy-to-assemble shelter with good UV and rain protection. Spacious design and quality materials praised. Some issues with broken poles and fabric durability over long-term outdoor use.

Sturdy well-made shelter
Bought to replace a broken gazebo which was cumbersome and bulky to store. This appears to be sturdy, not too difficult to erect, and stores in a compact well-made bag. Its design results in more usable space than the gazebo that it replaces although both were nominally 3M items.

Great bit of kit
A really well put together bit of kit. Strong fabric and really sturdy. Nice and bright underneath,.so protects from the sun without feeling in the dark. Been after one for a while and the price was too good to miss, and I'm not disappointed..

Coleman’s event Shelter
Got this for are party in the garden. Easy to put up about 10 to 15 mins. Had it up for 3 days on the grass. All fitted back in the bag first go. Think I will buy a side for it to keep the sun out more. I like it better the the old gazebo and easier to put up and take down.

It leaked
I bought this as a shelter for an event. It rained and water started dripping through the middle of the shelter so had to return it. Not fit for purpose.

Perfect for some shade!!
I brought this for my back garden to give me some shaded area and it’s perfect. Easy to put up.

Awesome protection in the garden
We bought this for a garden party and it’s fantastic. With the recent sun we have decided not to take it down just yet as the open sides allow plenty of sun so the grass is not affected. We did buy some extra side panels and have only put one in for privacy so far. Its steel poles give it a very sturdy design. We anchored with the pegs provided but haven’t needed the guide wires so have left them so far. Very satisfied

Keeps us dry when other Gazebos let rain in
Wish I had bought it years ago! we did a craft fair using the shelter, others had standard gazebos. When it rained, everyone had to move their tables into their gazebos, all their stuff got wet. We left out tables where they were, didn't have to do a thing. No rain, wet things, leaks, and plenty of room to move around. much more stable in wind and rain,

Hello there.
Yes, the 14x14ft Sun wall for Event Shelter Pro will fit the Coleman Event Shelter - Medium. The Sun wall is designed to clip onto the Event Shelter Pro, confirming compatibility with the Medium size.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Kim,
I can advise the following for the Coleman Event Shelter - Medium:
Sand is too soft and won't accommodate the guy ropes.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello Kate,
The Coleman Event Shelter - Medium is primarily designed to be anchored using pegs and guy ropes, which are most effective when used on soft ground like grass or soil. However, it can still be used on solid ground (like concrete or tarmac), but you'll need to make some adjustments for stability and safety:
Options for Using on Solid Ground:
Weighting the Legs: Use leg weights, sandbags, or water weights to secure the shelter. These are often used for gazebos and can be purchased or DIYed.
Guy Rope Anchoring: If possible, tie the guy ropes to nearby fixed objects like railings, fences, or heavy furniture.
Drill-in Anchors: On some surfaces (like decking), you might be able to use temporary anchors or screws, but this depends on whether you're allowed to drill into the surface.
Hope this helps
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Paul. The Coleman Event Shelter - Large measures Living space size H218, W365, L365cm.
This converts to approximately a height of just over 7 feet and the ground space measuring just over 11 feet in width and depth. The photograph show a man standing and a family sitting at a table and this would suggest that the figures are correct.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Popeye,
The supplier has advised the following for the Coleman Event Shelter - Large:
“ The shelter in the range sold here is our normal event shelter, it has taped seams (just as the pro) only difference is that the pro has a lining on the inside that makes it cooler underneath. ”
Thanks for using Q&A.
Coleman gazebos DO come with a storage bag..
Hello Angie,
I can advise the following for the Coleman Event Shelter - Medium:
Apologies, this does require a full take down and can't be easily folded. There also isn't a storage bag for this so the box is the easiest place to store all the pieces together.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi SB
Yes - please remember This needs to be secured either to fence or pegged to the lawn.
Thanks for using Q&A
Allan
As long as you can secure it to something. The legs are designed to be pegged into grass but and there are ropes further up so you can tie it to a fence or the like to stop it from blowing away.
Hi Ivanr,
Thanks for your question.
Yes, this is the pro model.
I hope this helps. :)
