Canopy/Tent Size Calculator
The best rule of thumb is to allow some extra space. Keep in mind you will need at least an extra 6 ft of space on all sides of the canopy to allow for the ropes and stakes that anchor the canopy in place. For example, a 20 x 20 canopy will require a 32' x 32' area. We will anchor your canopy in place with stakes (in soil) or with concrete anchors.
