Maka Tipi Australia

Maka is actually a Native American word from the Sioux language and it means Earth. So, you could call us Earth Tipi too! Not something bought off the shelf.

We create amazing spaces and events with our stunning giant hat tipis, bell tents and bedouin stretch tents from weddings or corporate events to birthdays and festivals. At Maka Tipi, we create amazing spaces and events with our stunning tipis, bell tents and bedouin stretch tents. Whether it's a wedding, a corporate event, a special milestone birthday or a festival, we'll help you to make your ev

ent the most memorable and inspiring experience it could ever be. Even though the tipi's we use are Nordic in origin, tipi's are linked to many cultures accross the world and we believe that Maka really sits well with our company and our ethos. We wanted to create an outdoor events company that incorporates lots of natural elements into its design and is as kind on the environment as possible. We use lots of rustic, handmade and vintage elements for our interiors and look for ways to re-purpose objects to fit in with our designs. A couple of our team first came across the amazing Stratus Tipis at a team building event in Cornwall, in the UK, and were totally blown away by them, both visually and by their versatility. Those old cogs started turning and several years later our love of everything rustic, heritage and re-cycled was married with our love of the outdoors, and those magical tipis, to create Maka Tipi. We are a family run business with a strong team that has over 30 years experience within the events industry supporting us. We've worked for several event companies, including one of the largest Tipi providers in Europe, and found that they didn't really deliver that personal or intimate level of service that we believe every customer should receive and also lacked a more refined service for those looking for a little bit of luxury. We felt that the one-size fits all approach didn't work for us and so took the decision to create Maka Tipi to provide clients with a totally bespoke tipi hire and tent hire service, inspired by their imagination, and devise the events that they truly wanted. As well as our stunning and unique white tipis, we have beautiful Bedouin tents and gorgeous bell tents as part of our collection, which adds that extra dimension of flexibility and class to what we can offer our clients and differentiate us from other providers. We think of ourselves as a little family, all pulling together to make Maka Tipi a special and vibrant business and a great place to work. We all want your event to be the most amazing, special and memorable experience for you, and that comes from our belief that every event should be extraordinary and put together with a mix of love and attention to detail. From our main base on the Gold Coast, we cover most parts of the East Coast of Australia, particularly Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Sydney, Hunter Valley, Blue Mountains and surrounding areas. However we have ample resources, are very flexible and more than capable of servicing events further afield. If you would like to know more on how we can help you create the most amazing and memorable day for you and your guests and to discuss your wedding tipi rental, stretch tent rental or bell tent rental requirements, please get in touch with one of our friendly team.

Nothing like a good ol' country wedding! Gotta love those hats boys!

We travel far and wide with our tipis. This was just a short 600km round trip, but totally worth it to set up for a wedding on this stunning property.

24/08/2023

Amazing views and glorious sunshine for an intimate wedding at with one of our stunning white tipis

01/07/2023

3 different sized tipis for this wedding set up. A bit bespoke, but we aim to please and give our amazing clients the exact build they want and need for their special occasions. This combination really worked well so that they could zone each tipi and create something truly unique

We travel to some amazing places with our work and it’s pretty special to look back and see where we’ve been. This is a quick flashback to a beautiful wedding we set up overlooking Loch Carron in the Scottish highlands in 2018. It took us a whole day to drive up there and we camped overnight whilst we did our set up. We also got to visit the small, but stunning, fishing village of Plockton while we stayed there and had some mighty tasty fish and chips! Most tipi companies just stay in their local area, but we love to explore and will consider jobs all over the country if it’s feasible. So get in touch if you’d like a tipi wedding but think you’re too far away from suppliers. We might just be able to help 😄

Woohoo! It’s tipi time again!

Becky and Justin added some globe lanterns to their wedding to give it that little pop of colour. Their 3 tipi set up was amazing and one of our fave memories!

How to fit 3 giant tipis into a backyard with a tree in the way! 😄

09/03/2023

In these tough times, it's great to get together with friends and family when there's actually something to celebrate like a wedding or birthday. Forgetting the hardships and strain of everyday life and letting your hair down even for a few hours can make a huge difference to your mental health. This is why we love shots like this where people are relaxing, having a few drinks and catching up with old mates

White tipis looking gorgeous again!

07/03/2023

Amazing throwback to one of our fave weddings in the beautiful Blue Mountains. It was a pretty long journey from the Gold Coast and there were challenges with flooding, but we got there in the end! The venue was in a valley surrounded by the mountains and the tipis looked absolutely awesome as always.

Our Story

Welcome to Maka Tipi. We are a boutique tipi, bell tent and stretch tent hire company that create amazing spaces and events with our alternative structures. We specialise in tipi weddings, corporate or brand events, birthdays and special occasions and festivals. With our stunning and unique structures, we can help you make your event the most memorable and inspiring experience it could ever be.

Now, you may be wondering what the word Maka actually means, or is it something we've just made up! Well it's actually a Native American word from the Sioux language and it means Earth. So, you could call us Earth Tipi too!

Even though the tipi's we use are Nordic in origin, tipis are linked to many cultures across the world that have an affinity to the land and their environment. That belief sits well with our own ethos and our desire for an outdoor events company that delivers the highest quality structures and interiors, incorporates as many natural elements into its design as possible and that's as kind on the environment as can be. This means using lots of rustic, handmade and vintage elements for our interiors and looking for ways to recycle and re-purpose objects to fit in with our designs.

We first came across the amazing Stratus Tipis at a team building event in Cornwall, in the UK, and were totally blown away by them, both visually and by their versatility. It really fired our imagination and several years later our love of everything rustic, heritage and re-cycled was married with our love of the outdoors, and those magical tipis, to create Maka Tipi.
