The invention relates to a tarpaulin fixture for canopies of utility vehicles, notably folding canopies for vehicle superstructures and containers, comprising a canopy frame made of upper longitudinal booms (2) which cover the length of the loading area and are supported in relation to the vehicle chassis by means of a upright supports and stakes. Bows (3) which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and support a roof cover, notably a tarpaulin, are supported on the upper longitudinal booms (2) of the canopy frame in such a way that their end faces or caps (4) placed onto same laterally overlap the longitudinal booms (4). Especially side wall tarpaulins are fixed by means of irremovable fixing means passing through eyelets or at least recesses in the tarpaulin to support elements, such as the fixing plate of suspension slides or bow caps, arranged at intervals to each other. To provide a tarpaulin fixture which can be produced and assembled at reasonable cost and meets high safety standards, the invention provides for the tarpaulin to be fixed to the support elements by means of the eyelets provided for in it or at least U-shaped metal bow elements (5) which encompass at least a reinforced edge and through which irremovable fixing means (10) are able to pass.
