Mecum Kissimmee 2025: Temporary Event Infrastructure at Massive Scale

Mecum Kissimmee 2025: Temporary Event Infrastructure at Massive Scale

When Mecum Auctions needed large-scale temporary infrastructure for its 2025 event in Kissimmee, Florida, JK Rentals delivered more than 750,000 sq ft of tent coverage to support one of the most recognized collector car auctions in the country. With a footprint spanning 120 acres and an event schedule built around heavy foot traffic, vehicle movement, staging, hospitality, and operational support, this project required speed, planning, and exact execution from start to finish.

A Partnership Built on Precision

JK Rentals has worked alongside Mecum Auctions for years, helping bring this large-scale event to life with temporary structures that support both the public-facing experience and the operational demands behind it. Mecum Kissimmee runs for 13 days, features more than 4,500 collector vehicles, and draws attendees from across the world, which means every structure has to perform under pressure and fit seamlessly into a highly coordinated event environment.

Engineered for Scale and Flexibility

For the 2025 event, JK Rentals installed a wide range of structures tailored to the site’s needs, including Levo and Arcum clearspan structures, high-peak tents, and pole tents. Each structure was selected and positioned to support event flow, protect high-value assets, allow for vehicle access, and create functional space for staging, hospitality, registration, and guest movement across the property.

Supporting a High-Performance Event Environment

Projects of this size demand more than square footage. They require infrastructure that works as hard as the event team behind it. From ADA-related support and equipment coordination to access planning and rapid installation across a large venue, this build was designed to meet the demands of a fast-moving, high-traffic auction environment where timing, safety, and reliability all matter.

Behind the Auction Experience

Mecum’s behind-the-scenes coverage shows just how complex this event really is, with hundreds of workers, extensive staging needs, semis of equipment, and tightly coordinated logistics all working together to keep the auction moving. JK Rentals’ structures help create the physical framework for that operation, giving the event team the covered space, access, and flexibility needed to support a production of this scale.

Built for the Big Moments

From registration areas and staging zones to food service, retail, and guest hospitality, JK Rentals’ temporary structures support every part of the Mecum experience. While the spotlight is on the vehicles and the bidding, the environment around those moments has to be just as dependable, and that is where engineered temporary structures make a measurable difference.
