  • (1888PressRelease) October 26, 2026 - Eagle International Tents and Air Domes announced today that it has been appointed exclusive broker for the sale of a cross-shaped pole tent of about 64,000 square feet - the largest large-format pole tent in North America. No other cross-shaped tent of this size is currently listed for sale.

    Built by Master Tent Builders in March 2017, the tent is made of 18 oz PVC vinyl, flame resistant and originally certified to NFPA 701. At full setup, its cross-shaped footprint measures about 340 feet by 340 feet, with a manufacturer's occupant load of up to 6,500 people. It has been deployed about four times since it was built. It can also be set up in smaller configurations, including an oval layout of about 29,400 square feet seating up to about 2,640. About 5,000 white folding chairs are available as one lot, with the tent or separately, and two semi-trailers are available with the tent - a complete large-gathering package, sold as one structure. A media pack is available on request.

    "A structure this size would take about six months to build new," said Shannon Dowell, Sales Director of Eagle International. "This one is already built. A ministry or organization that needs room for thousands of people can put it to work now, with room for everyone who comes." The tent suits ministries and crusade organizations, churches, event producers, and relief organizations that need covered space for very large gatherings.
