WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
NORDIC TIPIS / EST. 2012
Nothing could have complemented the amazing farm setting of our wedding better than Tipikata’s incredible Tipis. Every guest was blown away when they first saw the Tipis and they proved the perfect place for everyone to party the night away. To top it off, all of the staff were friendly and ever accommodating - by far the most responsive and supportive of our suppliers. Sarah & Michael
The tipis offered a wonderfully warm and cosy surrounding for our music performances and opening night dinner - the open fire was just perfect for the cool autumn weather! Our patrons just loved the whole experience! Thank you so much for making our event that little bit more unique! Leila, Event Coordinator, Warburton Nordic Festival
It looked even better than we had imagined and the comments we had were overwhelming. People absolutely loved the tipis and keep asking us what the name of your company is!
The guests apparently gasped when they arrived at the paddock to see that venue awaiting their arrival. As soon as the tipis were set up, we just knew it was going to be fun.

TIPIS AT A GLANCE
/ EST. 2012
Weatherproof Your Event Designed to withstand all types of extreme weather conditions. Built using strong, durable spruce pine poles and waterproof, flame retardant canvas.
Tipi sides can be raised and lowered according to weather conditions. (instructions provided) Tipis can easily be kept cosy with our roaring log fire, free standing gas heaters, or kept cool with fans or portable air conditioning units.
Suitable Tipi Spaces Each tipi requires a level surface of a minimum of 14m in diameter, free from overhead trees, power lines and other obstructions. To safely secure the tipis, metal stakes are driven into firm ground. They can
only be set up on hard surfaces like tennis courts or asphalt by drilling holes. We can provide a list of fantastic tipi locations for you. Locations include farm settings, historic homesteads, manicured gardens and rustic paddocks.
Tipi Set Up & Removal The standard hire period is 24 hours. The tipis are usually put up the day before the event and taken down the day after the event.
Longer periods of hire are available on request, but may incur additional charges. Sunday and public holiday surcharges may apply.
