I have a $10, 4 burner BBQ cover from bunnings I throw over the scopes during the day at these things. Keeps the sun off but I'd pull it all down if it theatened rain. These covers do go brittle in the sun, I think they design them like that, but it takes about 12 months before they fracture and split.
I booked and paid for last year, but missed it due to a broken foot, and this year it's a broken car
