Unfortunately, I can¹t find any photos at the moment, but I¹ve used 2 things to work around venues that won¹t let you put tape on the wall.
1) I always use blue painters tape (the kind painters use to mask off areas), which I am 100% sure will not hurt the walls. Then, I just very politely but insistently ignore any direction that I can¹t tape things to the wall. Most places, like hotels, don¹t really want to create a scene with a customer. They¹ll just tell you that you¹re responsible for any damage, and since the blue painters tape doesn¹t cause damage, no problem. 2) Sometimes I have used 8 foot tall pieces of foamcore leaned up against the walls as the base for taping things. The foamcore is lighter and easier to move around than tables, and doesn¹t run the risk of scratching the wall with a table! It has 2 downsidesit can be hard to find in that size, and it¹s not cheap. I usually order it to be shipped from charrette.com: https://www.charrette.com/scripts/wgate/zshop4a441683/~flN0YXRlPTI5OTAyLjAwN i4wMy4wOA==?~okcode=ZMYF&~target=_top&~forcetarget=yes I love the ideas with rope and clothespins though!
