How events & tents teams in St. John’s use sandbags
Wind is the number-one risk to outdoor events, and many event permits require weights on every tent leg. Farmers’ markets, festivals, wedding planners and tent rental companies use canopy weight bags and dark-coloured sandbags to secure pop-up canopies, frame tents, stage truss, banners and backdrops on grass, asphalt and indoor floors alike, without stakes or trip-prone guy lines.
St. John’s had a population of 110,525 in the 2021 Census. In Newfoundland and Labrador, autumn and winter storms with heavy rain and strong winds are when sandbags are most often needed for doorways, drains and temporary structures.
Typical uses
- Pop-up canopy legs at markets
- Frame and marquee tent legs
- Stage truss and backdrop bases
- Banner and flag stand weights
- Wedding and corporate event tents
