Round Tablecloths

Work it out with one simple sum: table diameter plus twice the drop you want. Australian banquet tables sit at 75cm high, so a floor length finish on a 1.2m round table needs roughly 270cm of fabric, while a 1.8m round table needs about 330cm. If you prefer a shorter, more modern drop that shows the table legs, size down one step. Our collection filters let you shop directly by table size (1.2m, 1.8m and 2.4m wide), and if you are dressing long trestles at the same event you will find matching options in our rectangle tablecloths.

Our standard round tablecloths are woven polyester, which is why they resist creasing, wash easily and hold colour through repeated events. That makes them a practical alternative to a round linen tablecloth or round cotton tablecloth, both of which crease quickly under venue lighting. If you specifically want the texture of natural fibre on the table, look at our premium linen and cloth napkins to bring that finish in as an accent instead.

Yes, and it is one of the quickest ways to lift a plain base. Our 230cm round satin overlays sit neatly over a 260cm, 300cm or 320cm base cloth and create a two tone finish without doubling your linen budget. For a round satin tablecloth used on its own, or for velvet and satin styling across the room, see our satin and velvet tablecloths. If your brief calls for something with more shine, our sequin tablecloths work well on cake and dessert tables.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, tumble dry on low and remove promptly, then hang or roll rather than folding to avoid set creases. Polyester recovers well, so a light steam or a short hang in a warm bathroom lifts most travel wrinkles. Store each round tablecloth rolled by size and colour so you are not re-pressing on event day. Our fitted tablecloths and dry bar covers care for the same way.

Layer a runner down the centre for texture, build height with a centrepiece, then finish each place setting with a folded napkin. Our table runners come in satin, chiffon, hessian and sequin, our cloth napkins and napkin rings coordinate with the same colour palette, and our flower stands and centrepieces add the vertical layer that photographs well. The same approach works for a festive table: a red round tablecloth or a hunter green round table cloth carries a Christmas setting beautifully, and both come in the larger sizes for extended family seating.
