A canopy structure comprises a frame and a canopy. The frame comprises a plurality of arms and legs, where each of the arms extends outwardly from a hub to a leg, each arm and leg being joined by a leg connector. Preferably, each leg is telescopic and is lockable and the hub preferably comprises a releasable locking mechanism. The canopy structure further comprises a mechanism by which the canopy surface can be tilted to angles relative to the ground.
