Marquee Event Group

What Marquee Event Group does

Quest Events LLC, doing business as Marquee Event Group, is a North American full-service event rental company specializing in drape, modular scenic elements, furniture, decor and lighting, tenting, tables and chairs, tabletop, linens, AV drop, staging, and specialty furniture — including its premium CRUSH designer collection. The company serves five core end-markets: corporate events, weddings, exhibitions, AV and entertainment productions, and hospitality venues. Operations are delivered through 16-17 owned warehouse and showroom facilities in major US metros (Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego, San Francisco, Tampa, Washington DC), with the corporate headquarters in Frisco, TX.

The product offering is built on consolidated, owned inventory across multiple rental categories, allowing a single quote to cover drape, scenic, furniture, and staging for events of varying scale and geography. The company maintains several legacy sub-brands — Marquee Event Rentals (now integrated), EventWorks, Collection Furnishings, CRUSH, and AD Scenery — reflecting a roll-up strategy that has brought regional rental operators under a unified platform. No proprietary technology platform, software product, or AI/ML system is disclosed; the operational backbone is physical inventory, logistics, and install labor.

Revenue is generated through project-based rental fees priced via custom quotes, with bundled professional installation, delivery, and pickup services. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting event planners, corporate meeting programs, agencies, venues, and hospitality groups, supplemented by digital channels (blog, email newsletter, holiday lookbook, product catalog, and social/PartySlate presence). Customer segmentation is diversified across corporate, social (weddings), exhibition, and entertainment end-markets, with no named anchor accounts disclosed. The company is privately held with 1,001-5,000 employees; no revenue, funding, or valuation figures are publicly disclosed.
