The largest locally-owned tent and equipment rental company in Atlanta, Classic Tents & Events has been quietly shaping the landscape of events for over two decades. What began as a modest venture in March 2000, born from the purchase of tents used in the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics, has blossomed into a powerhouse in the event rental industry. Their journey, led by the visionary President Steven Eisenstein, is a testament to innovation, commitment, and community.
Steven Eisenstein isn’t your typical president. With a background steeped in hospitality and a knack for networking, he brought a fresh perspective to Classic Tents & Events when he took the helm in 2010. His vision was simple yet profound: to provide unparalleled customer experiences and solutions that go beyond the ordinary. Armed with twenty years of experience, including a stint as the former President of the National Association of Catering Executives, Eisenstein set out to make Classic a name synonymous with creative solutions and commitment to clients.
