Winter may be coming, but we’re not slowing down! At Holmsted Events, we provide Sailcloth Tents and Authentic Nordic Tipis all year round, no matter the season. Whether it’s a cosy winter wedding, milestone birthday celebration, garden party or corporate party, we’ve got you covered—literally!
When it comes to the colder winter months, our Tipis, in particular, truly come to life, creating a wonderfully cosy and enchanting atmosphere that invites both warmth and joy. In the cooler months, we close down the sides, insert the secure doorset, and let the internal fireplace and marquee heater work their magic to keep you feeling warm and comfortable.
Styled with twinkling fairy lights, the Tipis truly do speak for themselves when it comes to creating the perfect outdoor wedding or event. An outdoor party? In the middle of winter? Well, what a great idea! Our Tipis, adorned with all the lovely trimmings, are as cosy as can be. Have you heard of the Hygge concept? Not only does it serve as a wonderful theme for your event if you need a little inspiration, but we like to think this perfectly describes the warm and inviting atmosphere our Tipis provide. Actually pronounced: “Who—gaa”—it is a Danish and Norwegian word that conveys a mood of cosiness and comfortable conviviality, filled with feelings of wellness and contentment.
Our Tipis are expertly built to withstand extreme climates and can endure the worst that South East British weather has to offer, providing a practical, flexible, and atmospheric space for your party. With its sides securely down, the Tipi takes on its traditional form, and during the chilly winter months, a fire pit and marquee heater along with an entrance porch will create an inviting and snug atmosphere inside for all your guests while allowing for easy access both into and out of the Tipi.

How can we be sure that our tipis will stand up to the unpredictable British winter weather? There are a myriad of different types of tipis available on the market. While they may appear to be just a few poles and some canvas, we have meticulously selected our tipis from only the best and most reputable manufacturer. We proudly use tipis that are thoughtfully designed and expertly manufactured in Sweden by one of the original and most respected tent makers, Tentipi. The poles are made from solid timber that has been sustainably sourced from the lush forests of Scandinavia, and the fabric has undergone years of development to ensure it is both fire retardant and exceptionally waterproof, making certain that you will stay dry no matter how heavy the rain gets—we all know how unpredictable and intense the Great British weather can be!
