About Us: Elevating Celebrations Since 2007

Founded in 2007, McCarthy Tents & Events has rapidly ascended to become the fastest-growing event rental company in both Rochester and Buffalo, New York. Our meteoric rise is attributed to our exceptional equipment, dedicated customer service, and genuine enthusiasm for the industry. Whether you're planning a wedding, corporate event, outdoor festival, or any other special occasion, we are dedicated to exceeding your expectations.

Expanding Our Reach:

Although we began as a Rochester-based company, our reputation has spread like wildfire across New York State. For larger weddings and events, we proudly extend our party and tent rentals to Buffalo, Syracuse, Ithaca, the Finger Lakes region, and even as far as Saratoga and Albany. No distance is too great when it comes to ensuring you have the best event experience possible.

Our Recent Milestone:

In the summer of 2022, McCarthy Tents & Events acquired Nolans Rental, Inc., combining the best in the industry into one powerhouse. Renovations and improvements were swiftly made, resulting in a brand new, remodeled showroom, offices, and an Inspiration Room. We're excited to offer our customers an even more exceptional experience.

Commitment to Cleanliness:

One of our key differentiators is our unwavering commitment to cleanliness. We take extensive measures to ensure that the rentals you receive for your event are in new or like-new condition. This includes a state-of-the-art tent wash bay in our 15,000 sq ft warehouse, ensuring that our tents shine brilliantly at every event.

Safety First:

Safety is our number one priority. We are industry leaders in safety and strictly follow the American Rental Association's Statement of Best Practices for Emergency Evacuation Planning for Tented Events. Your guests' safety is paramount to the success of any event.

Concrete Weights vs. Water Barrels:

In 2014, we made the crucial decision to use only concrete weights to secure our frame tents. Industry research has shown that this is the safest and most effective way to anchor a tent to the ground. We believe in safety above all else, even if it means incurring higher costs. Your safety is worth it.
