About Outdoor

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

At MBE Group, we offer a wide range of outdoor viewing areas, from simple raised platforms that keep spectators safe and off muddy ground, to covered pergolas and fully enclosed premium viewing buildings. Each design is completely bespoke, tailored to the size, style, and needs of your facility. Whether you’re looking for a practical, cost-effective solution or a high-end viewing space with glazing, seating, and weather protection, we can create the perfect balance of comfort, safety, and style for your arena.

Platforms

Platforms are an excellent way to keep spectators off muddy ground, providing a clean, stable surface that enhances safety and comfort. By raising the viewing area, platforms not only improve visibility but also create a more organised and professional environment for events and training sessions.

Covered

We design and build covered platforms and pergolas that provide practical, stylish, and weather-resistant spaces for watching outdoor arenas. A covered platform keeps spectators elevated and away from muddy ground, while the roof offers protection from rain or harsh sun.

Mezzanine

mezzanine viewing platforms that provide spectators and trainers with an elevated vantage point over the arena. They also offer the unique benefit of providing spectator areas both above and below, effectively increasing capacity without expanding your building footprint.

Our bespoke design service ensures that no two platforms are the same — whether you need a simple raised viewing deck, a covered platform, or a fully integrated mezzanine with seating. We carefully consider layout, materials, finishes, and safety features to provide a solution that is both practical and visually impressive. By tailoring each build to your arena, we deliver platforms that not only enhance the spectator experience but also add long-term value to your equestrian facility.

Bespoke Design

No matter the size of your project, we will always create a bespoke solution that’s tailored perfectly to you and your facility.

Size

We offer two main options for platforms — timber decking or concrete. Both are extremely versatile, durable, and practical, providing a clean, stable surface that ensures your customers, riders, and spectators are kept safe, comfortable, and out of the mud.

TIMBER

At MBE Group, we are committed to building with materials that are not only strong and durable but also environmentally responsible. That’s why all of our timber is sustainably sourced from certified suppliers, ensuring it comes from responsibly managed forests. Using high-quality, pressure-treated timber, we deliver structures that are built to last while reducing environmental impact. By choosing sustainably sourced timber, we help protect forests for the future, promote biodiversity, and provide our clients with peace of mind that their project is both eco-conscious and ethically built.

MBE Group designs and builds external viewing areas that combine comfort with durability. From simple covered shelters to bespoke timber structures with seating, we create spaces that allow spectators to enjoy events in all weather conditions. Our external viewing areas can be tailored to suit your arena or yard, providing practical and stylish solutions for trainers, riders, and visitors alike.
