Meet Tom and Lindsay, the owners of The Marquee At New Town! The two met here in New Town and have always loved the “Event Tent” and could see the possibilities. They even plan to have their own wedding reception at The Marquee.

This is not only a business venture but also a heartfelt endeavor driven by the dedication and shared passion of its creators, Lindsay Grider and Tom Martin. Their vision and commitment ensure that the venue provides exceptional experiences and leaves an indelible mark in the events industry.
