WHY THE DOME CO?
20m dome with canvas sides
Our geodesic domes are used at public, corporate and private events, theatres, festivals and functions throughout the UK and beyond.
Over the past 40 years and spanning two generations we have developed our own distinctive style of beautiful and functional geodesic domes and structures with an exclusive feel.
If you have production or installation in mind, the load bearing capacity and many rigging points will save you the need for internal ground support and additional costs in most cases.

Ideal for theatre, music, hospitality and so much more, from small intimate events, brand activation, weddings, film and live broadcast, to large festivals and sporting event venues, or simply a bar or bespoke environment with blackout options too, we have the expertise and understanding for your needs. Our robust structures are capable of withstanding long term or permanent installation.

The Dome company was founded in the UK in 1990. Our familiarity with large scale fabric construction came out of an earlier involvement with the design and build of other giant structures. We have continued to innovate ever since.

OUR HISTORY
Albion Fair Circa 1976
This was the very first 17.5m dome, a complete original design with our distinctive curved beams conceived by the late “Gil” Gillilan.
We’ve come a long way since then and thankfully so have our clothes and attitude to heath and safety!
Starting out with the original fairs such as Albion, travelling shows and theatre, all this was invaluable experience for our team. A team who have seen all the twists, turns and evolution of the events industry throughout the years.

“The Dome Company is a family run company that we have had the pleasure of working with over the years and will continue to work with for many more. The domes are beautifully constructed and often become the talking point of our event site. At FolkEast we have used the domes for a variety of needs, from music and craft workshops to venues with stage and lighting. The impressive 25 metre, is light and airy during the day and at night, comes into its own when lit. Beautiful. The crew are friendly and efficient and to be honest, watching the construction of these stunning domes can be a piece of performance art in its own right. Great structures and service, thank you”
