If you have an eBay account, a search for SMD5050 LED strips will score a lot of hits. Depending on the type of strip, level of waterproofing & whether it comes with IR remote & power supply, the price will vary from $25-35 for a 5 meter strip, that's like 16 feet. You can cut them up & have quite a few rows packed into your canopy. Not a bad deal at all for a little diy effort. Watch the shipping costs, mostly it's free & that's a bit of a downside since it can take 3-4 weeks to get to you.
There are also some good deals available in ready made strips enclosed in aluminum housing with plastic cover.
