About Event in a Tent
Based in the spectacular Lake George region, Event In A Tent can travel throughout much of New York and New England, providing a spectacular and unique tent for your special occasion.
Our team of experienced, friendly, and professional tent builders can assist you from start to finish. We are proud to provide the highest quality product and service to ensure that your event is spectacular in both style and function. Our experience includes flying tents to the top of the Alps, and even providing live penguins for a Christmas party!
Our range of tipis have Nordic roots, and have been adapted in a Scandinavian style to allow for flexibility, form, and function. The sides can be up for added room and ventilation, or down for a cozy, comfortable intimacy. The tents can be linked together to form large spaces for large events, with some sides open and others closed. The configurations are limited only by your imagination.
We carry many optional extras, all aligned with the bright, comfortable style of the tipis. Traditional Scandinavian tables and benches can seat your guests for a meal. Fireplaces, lounge furniture, and unique lighting all combine to provide a one-of-a-kind setting for your stylish and memorable occasion.
Perhaps you seek a “Mother Earth” style for your wedding or reception. Or your company’s annual meeting requires a unique and inspirational setting. Or your festival requires a special, intimate space for VIPs to relax. Whatever your requirements, Event In A Tent has you “covered!” A wood and canvas tent brings out the natural beauty of the day or night that no aluminum and plastic awning could ever provide!

Our Tipis
Our tents are based on the traditional tipis of the Sami people of Lapland. Combining both modern and traditional techniques and materials, the tipis can withstand anything Mother Nature can throw at them, while keeping guests dry and warm inside. The unique design of our tipis allows you to take full advantage of your surroundings by giving you the freedom to design your own layout, floor-plan and positioning of windows and entrances, customized to your setting. For those enjoying a winter event, the tipis will create that perfect cozy winter atmosphere with crackling fires and twinkling fairy lights.
Keeping it green
Event in a Tent aim to keep everything as green as possible, from the construction of the tipis to the day-to-day running of the company. We are currently working towards becoming a carbon neutral company.
When I reached out to Kenis two weeks before our wedding I was nervous that we had missed our opportunity for rentals (we needed chairs and a dance floor) – I am SO glad that I was wrong! Kenis was quick to reply, provided a (totally fair) quote right away, worked with our venue to ensure everything went smoothly, handled set up and take down seamlessly, and was so nice and understanding! I don’t know if he realizes this, but our wedding wouldn’t have been so perfect if he hadn’t swooped in to save the day. My husband and I would highly recommend Event-In-A-Tent to anyone looking for party rentals, it’s a no brainer!
“Hiring the NY-based Event-in-a-Tent to set up a 25-foot-high Stratus 72 tipi at the reception site of my family memorial service provided me a solemn, awe-inspiring backdrop against which to register my grave thoughts, and to pursue with friends and guests the celebratory merriment that followed. The impressive height of the tent allowed my blooming weigela and the branches of my cypress to poke in picturesquely, showing the tent’s harmony with my yard environment. The stability of the structure was accomplished by binding the tips of eight weight-bearing poles that were fixated on the ground on the one end forming an octagonal perimeter, but pointed inward towards the zenith on the other. There was no center pole needed, maximizing the under-the-tent size to utilize. The overall aesthetics was elegantly rough and hefty, and no doubt minimalist to me. I kept the hanging light packages on in the fade mode for three consecutive nights leading to the event, both as a ritual and for their ornamental charm, but opened the top ventilator cap during the day to facilitate air circulation. I was required by my city to apply for a building permit beforehand, due to the size it covers, over 1,000 square feet. But the tent’s inherently flame retardant fabrics passed the inspection of my city’s Fire Marshall. It took Kenis’s highly skilled crew four hours to assemble my tipi, and two to dissemble it on the next day following the event. The crew spent one additional hour arranging 14 spruce tables and 16 benches under the tent before the event and setting up 30 folding chairs on the lawn outside of it. The overall experience of witnessing a tipi erected, taken down and repackaged to the truck was as eye-opening as it was fun and compelling.”
