VIP accommodation Soudal Open Golf Tournament

Challenge

At the Rinkven International Golf Club in Schilde (Antwerp) the third edition of the Soudal Open took place, the most important golf tournament in Belgium and part of the European Tour. This prestigious four-day tournament is the place to be for golf enthusiasts and businesses. Organiser Golazo asked Veldeman to provide the high-quality VIP accommodation for the third year in a row.

Solution

Veldeman erected a Skyline multi-storey tent measuring 20 m x 40 m and an Arcada curved hall measuring 10 m x 55 m which offered the VIP guests a perfect view of the 18th hole. The multi-storey tent was erected on a layer substructure to level out the height differences at the site. In order to provide a covered terrace of sufficient size for the VIPs, the long side of the multi-storey tent was placed 5 m back from the front line of the tent. The terraces were equipped with a stylish bankirai floor and finished with a sleek, white balustrade.

New to this year’s edition were the electric roman blinds on the first floor of the multi-storey tent that allowed the side walls to be quickly opened and closed during the event in case of bad weather. This not only resulted in enormous time savings compared to classic side walls, but also improved visibility because they were concealed in the tent structure.

Several alu halls and pagoda tents served as a reception area and backstage area.
