Prices vary not only according to size, but other factors also have a bearing on the cost. For example, a lined marquee is generally more expensive than an unlined one. Traditional marquees tend to be a little more expensive than frame marquees, but this is not a rule, as prices can also vary according to the design and style of the structure. Something exotic such as a Tepee could be more difficult to find and therefore more costly than a standard marquee, all other things being equal.
