Garden hosting gets expensive quickly once you factor in seating, shade and some kind of weather backup.
If you’re planning summer BBQs or family get-togethers, Aosom has a strong deal on a large pop-up gazebo that looks particularly useful for bigger gardens.

Thank you!
This 6-metre pop-up gazebo is £50 cheaper with a promo code
Outsunny 3 x 6 m Pop Up Garden Gazebo,£139.99 with code PRE20 (was £189.99)
The retailer has cut the price of the Outsunny 3 x 6m Pop Up Canopy from £189.99 to £159.99, and shoppers can take a further £20 off with the code PRE20, bringing the total to £139.99.
This isn’t a small shelter for a couple of deckchairs.
The rectangular design offers 17.5m² of coverage and has three adjustable height settings, so there should be enough room for a dining set, a drinks table and a decent number of guests without everyone squeezing under one corner when the weather changes.
It’s also more flexible than the average gazebo.
The set comes with six detachable sidewalls, and four of those have nylon mesh windows with covers.
That means you can keep the space feeling open and bright, or close it off for a bit more privacy and insect protection once food is on the table.
The canopy itself is made from silver-coated 210D Oxford cloth with UV50+ protection, which is handy during hot spells, while 12 drainage holes are designed to stop rainwater building up overhead.
In other words, it’s set up for more than one kind of British summer day.

There’s some reassurance in the frame, too.
It uses a powder-coated metal structure with 30 x 30mm poles, plus 18 stakes, six ropes and six sandbags to help keep everything secure.
If you’re worried that a gazebo this size will be a pain to assemble, the pop-up design should make things easier.
It can be set up by two people in around 30 minutes, then folded down to 114 x 35 x 20cm and packed into a wheeled carry bag when it’s not in use.
At 3 x 6 metres, this is very much one for larger patios and lawns.
There’s no marked end date to the deal on the Aosom website, so don’t wait too long to splash out if want this in your garden for the summer.
If you’re still updating the rest of your outdoor space, it’s also worth checking out this Dunelm swing chair deal, this garden umbrella sale at Amazon, and our piece on the garden gadget that cooks pizzas in minutes.
