• Our frames are made from anodised reinforced aluminium – lightweight but strong.
• ShadeStars and SuperStars are both commercial grade and we compare them by saying “Easy vs Heavy”.
• The Shadestar has a 32mm leg width as opposed to 40mm on the SuperStar. This means the SuperStar is significantly heavier, which is handy for use in harsher environments eg. Surf Life Saving Clubs who use them on the beach, or Hire companies who use heavier PVC canopies and walls.
•  The ShadeStaris recommended in most other situations for its ease of use, while still being perfectly strong and durable.

• The marquee frames come with a 3year warranty on manufacturing faults, it does not cover damage from misadventure like storms and windgusts or regular wear & tear.
• The canopies are not covered by the warranty – lifespan is dependent on how often it is used, the weather conditions it is exposed to, handling etc.

We’ve had customers who have purchased marquees 8-10 years ago, with the frame still functional but the canopies in need of replacing!

• The canopy is made from a 600 denier woven polyester with a PU backing – lightweight but durableand has UPF 50+ sun protection rating.
• Our dye-sublimation printing method means that the ink is bonded into the fabric via a heat transfer process, giving it a longer print life than traditional surface printing. Creases also disappear quickly when the marquee is set up.

Traditionally, canopies were made in Vinyl, and some suppliers may still use it. Vinyl is heavy and creases easily, it also has a shiny/glossy finish which tends to cause glare in sunny conditions and tends to fade quicker than dye sublimated fabric.Surface printing means it could be susceptible to scratches and chipping. When folding and storing, more care needs to be taken with vinyl to prevent it sticking together and ripping the ink off when unfolding. For these reasons, we are advocates for Fabric canopies instead!

Yes, the canopy has a PU backing, double stitched stitching and hot-taped seams. It can withstand showers, but we do not recommend keeping it out in a heavy storm or extended periods of rain. It is also important to ensure the canopy is clipped on correctly so that water runs off and does not collect and create a pool. Do not pack your canopy or walls away if they are wet as the colour may bleed.

The whole canopy if you want! Our pricing is based around how much printing you require – whether it is just on the valances, or one side of the canopy etc. View the print options here.

Yes! We offer a free artwork service. Just send us your logos and a brief description of how you’d like it to look and our creative designers will come up with various options which best represent your brand or message. View the Artwork Requirements Guide here.

Yes – so long as they are high resolution. We recommend 50-100dpi or files more than 3MB in size. We will always check the quality and let you know if we feel the print will not be sharp.

Unprinted plain stock coloured canopies are kept in our warehouse and can be dispatched immediately. Branded canopies have a 2-3 week production turnaround.

We supply a full range of spare parts which you can replace yourself. If you are located in the Brisbane area, you can bring your frame in to us and we will quote on a repair service.

Please ask if we have any special deals on at the time of ordering. Multiple marquees often qualify for discounts.

Our frames are engineered for commercial use and they are proven to last for many years unlike many of the marquees sold in discount outlets. The added benefit of a Star Outdoor marquee is that we carry a full range of spare parts incase your marquee gets damaged and needs repairing. Your Star Outdoor marquee can also be printed.

We have been selling marquees for over 10 years and there are thousands in use throughout Australia. Our marquees are used by Surf Lifeguards in Queensland, New South Wales & Victoria with great success.

• We recommend removing the canopy when folding the frame, but we know this is not always practical. If you do leave it on, be weary of pinching the canopy when folding the frame, ensure it does not get caught in the fittings.
• Store your marquee in the carry bag for optimal protection.
