Winter Marquee Hire & Christmas Marquees

Marquees, tipis and sailcloth tents don’t just have to be for the summer months. With proper planning, a winter marquee event can be just as atmospheric, comfortable and memorable.

We offer a range of winter marquee hire options for your event, from small tipis for intimate gatherings to large sailcloths that can seat hundreds. Love Tipis is the only company in the UK with an integrated hard flooring system, allowing us to build our tipi structures on any hard surface to create a truly unique and exciting event space, even in the middle of a concrete city. Whether it’s a Christmas party, a corporate event, or a winter wedding, contact us today to find out how Love Tipis can help.

Winter & Christmas Marquee Hire

If you’re planning a winter event and need the perfect tent to keep your guests warm and comfortable, you’re in the right place.

A tipi, sailcloth, or stretch tent adds a unique touch to any winter event, creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for the festive season. With options for heated interiors, bars, dining areas, dance floors, stages, and snug chill-out zones, we can style and furnish the space to suit your vision.

Traditional canvas tipis bring a warm and intimate feel, ideal for winter events and Christmas parties. We can link multiple tipis together for a larger space for 600+ guests, and with fairy lights, fire pits, and soft furnishings, your guests will stay toasty as the party continues into the night. We can also arrange for Christmas trees, warm blankets and other festive decorations to complete your event.

For a grand and elegant winter wedding, a sailcloth tent is a stunning choice. When illuminated with warm lighting, it creates a magical glow, perfect for capturing unforgettable moments while also keeping the cold out.

Along with our winter marquees for hire, we provide everything you need to complete your event, including inside heaters, generators, catering tents, luxury toilet facilities, dance floors, fire pits, lighting, furniture, and décor. We can also provide flooring and matting to protect the ground and keep mud to a minimum. For Winter marquees hires, we particularly love our large wooden oak doors which creates a magical entrance and a cozy atmosphere.

How Love Tipis Winter Marquee Hire Works

Hiring a winter marquee from Love Tipis couldn’t be easier. Whether you have a private space in mind, or you’d like to choose one of our partner venues in the South East, we’ll work with you to understand your needs and create a package that suits your festive event.

We’ll review your chosen site beforehand to ensure it’s suitable and make recommendations about layout and setup. If you choose to book with us, we’ll arrive a couple of days ahead of the date to get everything ready, make any last tweaks and give you a handover. We’ll then come back to take everything down a few days later.

We have created some fantastic bespoke Winter events with our vast array of structures, even on hard standing flooring in cities. One of our favourite Winter marquee setups was at Luna Springs event space in Birmingham. This event space has hard concrete flooring, so our in-house craftsmen custom built a unique wooden flooring system on-site which enabled two tan tipis to be erected and joined together for a Christmas and New Year Eve party event schedule. We will try to find a way around any venue so just get in touch and we will check it out!

Julian
Catfest, 2023

“Thank you, LoveTipis, from the bottom of our hearts for the excellent service we've received from you for M&W's wedding. From first contact right through to the end, you have been amazing. You have been quick to respond to questions, contribute ideas (and tell us what we needed to know), and help with other providers such as generators, toilets, and chiller vans. Your tables, benches, chairs etc were all brilliant too.

I can't tell you how many people told us on Saturday how 'cool' the tipis were, and how lovely they looked in our setting. The dance floor stood up to the test of being full all night (even though I'd order a bigger one next time!) and we had everything we needed from you to make the wedding a huge success. I have 2 highlights: watching the canvas going up was phenomenal, but the twinkly fairy lights in the evening were literally breath taking.”

Julian Catfest Festival Tent Hire

“Love Tipi's were truly exceptional in helping us achieve the festival wedding we'd waited so long to have!! We could not recommend them more – they were not only professional, but friendly, kind and very patient with us with last minute additions. The set up and take down teams were fantastic and the communication during the build up was brilliant. Wish we could give them more than 5 stars!”

Stephanie Lammers-Rice Festival Wedding Tipi Hire2

“We honestly cannot find the words to express how beautiful our wedding day was thanks to the team at LoveTipis. The communication beforehand was thorough and timely, and the team were so patient with our many and frequent changes to table types, numbers, or layouts! Nothing was ever too much trouble. On the build day, the team were so professional and friendly – it really was incredible to watch them construct the tipis and bring our plans to life in one day. As for the tipis themselves, they are just spectacular. All our guests commented on how gorgeous the setup was and how spacious it felt, despite the fact we had nearly 140 guests! If you are considering using LoveTipis for an event, just go for it. You absolutely won’t regret it.”

Emily Davitt Wedding Tipi Hire

“LoveTipis were amazing for our wedding. They were responsive in the months leading up to our wedding and on the day just got on with it and set up exactly how we had agreed. Not only were the tipis stunning but we also used their magnificent, 7 reclaimed wood 8-seater tables, as well as chairs, stage, dancefloor, fairy lights and uplighters. The catering tent was also spacious. LoveTipis also facilitated a nice outdoor toilet from a 3rd party without any problems whatsoever. ”

Alan Creswell Wedding Tipi Hire9

“Stewart and his team set up 3 tipis for our wedding on Telscombe Tye. The team worked so hard to make our day perfect and were on hand 24 hours a day to help with any issues. The tipis looked amazing and stood up to the weather conditions we had the day before and after the wedding. Thank you for all your hard work to make our day so special.”
