Private Parties
Birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, and holiday parties made easy with tents, tables, chairs, and everything else, delivered and set up for you.
Turn Your Backyard Into the Best Venue in Houston
The best parties in Houston do not happen in banquet halls. They happen in backyards, driveways, cul-de-sacs, and neighborhood clubhouses, at graduations, quinceañeras, milestone birthdays, anniversary dinners, retirement send-offs, crawfish boils, and holiday open houses. The catch is that your home was not built to host sixty people, and the week before a party is the wrong time to discover that.
ACME Party and Tent has been solving that problem for Houston families since 1997. From our warehouse at 11144 S Post Oak, we deliver party rentals across Houston, Southeast Texas, and the Gulf Coast, and our crews set everything up and take it all down, so hosting stays fun. One call to 713-729-2424 and your backyard becomes a venue.
The Right Tent for a Home Celebration
A backyard tent does two jobs at once: it defines the party space and it takes Houston weather out of the equation. Frame tents are the workhorses of home events; they set up on grass, pavers, or driveway, need no center poles, and can tuck in close to the house. High peak marquis tents add a festive silhouette for special occasions, and for bigger celebrations, structure and clear top tents scale up to serious guest counts.
Add sidewalls if the forecast looks wet, fans or tent air conditioning for summer parties, and heaters for the two weeks of the year Houston calls winter. Our team helps you pick a footprint that fits your yard, your headcount, and your budget without renting more tent than you need.
More Than Tents: The Whole Party, One Order
Once the roof is handled, the rest of the party comes from the same catalog and arrives on the same truck:
- Tables and chairs for dining, cocktails, kids' areas, and gift tables
- Linens and chair covers that turn folding furniture into a dressed table
- Bars, beverage service, glassware, china, and flatware for real hospitality
- Food warmers and cooking equipment to keep the fajitas and sides hot
- Dance floors, lighting, and audio gear when the party has a soundtrack
- Generators and power distribution when the house circuits are not enough
Everything is listed in our rental catalog, and if you would rather describe the party than build a list, send the basics through our quote form and we will put the package together for you.

How Party Rentals Work
Renting for a private party is simpler than most hosts expect. Tell us the date, the location, the guest count, and the occasion. We recommend a package, confirm that your yard or venue can take the tent, and reserve everything on one order. Our crew delivers and installs before the party, usually with comfortable margin so you can decorate, and returns afterward to break it all down. You never wrestle a tent frame, stack sixty chairs, or figure out how to get a dance floor back in a truck.
Two pieces of advice from three decades of Houston parties: book early for spring graduation season and the December holidays, when the calendar fills fastest, and think about shade and airflow before anything else for summer events; guests forgive a lot, but not heat. Bigger celebration on the horizon? See our wedding rentals page for full receptions, or browse every occasion on the events hub.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Delivery, setup, and teardown by our own crews are part of how we work, whether it is a tent for two hundred or tables and chairs for a family barbecue. You host; we handle the equipment.
Probably, and we will confirm it before you commit. Frame tents come in a wide range of footprints and set up on grass, pavers, or driveways without center poles. Tell us your approximate yard dimensions and we will recommend what fits, or arrange a site check for tighter spaces.
The most common package is a frame tent, tables and chairs sized to the guest list, linens, and fans or climate control in the warm months. From there, hosts often add a bar setup, food warmers for catering, lighting for evening parties, and a dance floor if there is dancing.
Of course. Tables, chairs, linens, and serving equipment rent on their own all the time for indoor parties, clubhouse events, and covered patios. There is no requirement to rent a tent.
For most parties, a few weeks ahead is comfortable. For graduation season, Easter, and the December holidays, book as early as you can; those weekends fill up across the whole city, and tents and popular chair styles go first.
