Classic recognized at The Special Event Tradeshow & Conference Awards Gala for Mercedes' stunning tent build at the 2016 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Classic Party Rentals (Classic®), the nation's leading event and tent rental company, was awarded Best Tent Installation for its work to showcase Mercedes-Benz' current product line and their new concept vehicle at the 2016 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in Pebble Beach, California. The Concours d'Elegance is considered the most prominent vintage car show in the world.

Classic designed, manufactured, shipped and installed a one-of-a-kind structure that would allow Mercedes to not only showcase the cars, but entertain clients and host events. The final product, a 15-by-45-by-6-meter flat-roof structure, featured:

  • Glass walls and doors, tinted to reflect the sun, yet not too dark to impede the view from inside the structure overlooking the third hole at the legendary Pebble Beach golf course and the Pacific Ocean.
  • Custom fabric to ensure the venue appropriately represented its high-end car client.
  • A custom-built subfloor with additional support to drive vehicles inside the tent.
  • HVAC with tailored fittings and ducting to utilize floor registers and returns for optimized efficiency.

"It's rewarding to execute our client's visions successfully; to be recognized as 'the best' is the icing on the cake," said Keith Krzeminksi, vice president strategic accounts tenting, Classic. "The quality of the design and work produced by the team under such an incredibly tight deadline is tremendous. I am so proud, and I want to thank every member of the Classic team that contributed to this build."

Winners were announced at a gala at the conclusion of The Special Event (TSE) on January 12 at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, California. TSE is the industry's largest tradeshow and conference for event professionals, annually attracting more than 5,000 attendees. To see the full list of 2017 winners, click here.
