When to choose it
Relevant when the structure itself must become a scenographic element — the timber atmosphere gives a natural warmth that no classic white marquee produces, while keeping the reliability of a tested and certified aluminium frame.
Worth keeping in mind
Positioned in the premium range owing to the timber finish and the frame quality. More limited availability than the standard marquee — to anticipate 4 to 6 months ahead for peak-season weddings.
Structure & materials
What you need to know about your tente timbertrac
The Timbertrac tent is a hybrid event structure combining an exposed glued-laminated timber frame with a tensioned cover canvas. It blends the robustness of a genuine architectural frame with the logistical lightness of a demountable structure. Its interior look — light timber beams, generous height under the ridge, natural finish — positions it as an upmarket alternative to the standard marquee for prestige weddings, corporate galas and openings that want a "contemporary chalet" effect without the cost of a real building. The cost of hiring a Timbertrac depends on the size, the technical options (wooden flooring, suspended lighting, heating), the duration and the service area. As a guide, the ranges seen in 2026 run from €8,000 to €15,000 excl. VAT for a medium size (150-200 guests) to €20,000-35,000 excl. VAT for the large sizes (300-450 guests), delivery and setup included.
Materials & construction
- Exposed glued-laminated timber frame (spruce, pine or Douglas fir depending on the provider)
- PVC textile cover or white sailcloth canvas tensioned over the frame
- Glazed or fabric gable ends depending on the configuration, height under the ridge 5 to 7 m
- Anchoring: steel base plates + concrete ballast or footings integrated into the flooring
- Options: solid wood flooring, architectural lighting integrated into the beams, radiant heating, side walls in wood or glass
For which event?
Prestige nature & chalet wedding
For weddings at a wine estate, in the mountains or in a forest, the Timbertrac extends the spirit of the place with its exposed timber frame. The interior look evokes a contemporary chalet or a renovated barn — a rare, photogenic setting for 100 to 300 guests.
Corporate opening & CSR launch
Companies committed to a CSR approach choose the Timbertrac for their openings and brand launches: wood is a strong message about a sustainable positioning, without giving up on event-grade finish quality.
Gala & upmarket dinner
For a gala dinner, an awards ceremony or a prestige party, the Timbertrac offers a warm alternative to glass structures: the warm light reflected by the wood creates an intimate setting even at large capacities.
Reception in a natural estate
On a plot at the edge of a forest, on a mountain pasture or in a mature landscaped park, the Timbertrac fits in with no stylistic break. The timber frame converses with the environment where a PVC marquee would feel out of place.
What to plan for
- Ground: flat ground (slope < 3%), load-bearing capacity checked. Wooden flooring strongly recommended to align the finish.
- Access: 3.5 m HGV lane, manoeuvring area for a crane or forklift (handling the glued-laminated beams).
- Setup time: 2 to 4 days depending on size — longer than a standard marquee owing to the timber frame.
- Booking: a rare structure in France, limited fleet — anticipate 6 to 12 months in high season for weddings.
- Regulations: ERP/CTS file as for a marquee, certificate of conformity provided on request.
FAQ
Both are timber structures but at two different scales. The bamboo marquee uses 8-10 cm bamboo tubes in a light assembly: a natural, bohemian spirit, prestige range but a measured size. The Timbertrac uses an exposed glued-laminated timber frame (solid beams) in an architectural assembly: a contemporary chalet spirit, premium range, sizes up to 450 guests. The Timbertrac is more structural and durable; the bamboo lighter and more of a signature piece.
Yes, with suitable heating and closed side walls. The timber frame offers excellent thermal inertia. For winter weddings and end-of-year parties, it is one of the most comfortable structures on the market — the inertia of the wood and the insulation of the walls maintain 18-20 °C down to -5 °C outside.
Yes — the glued-laminated beams take heavy hangings (chandeliers, floral arrangements, projectors) subject to validation by our design office. The maximum load per point is set out on the site plan, generally 50 to 150 kg depending on the configuration.
The Timbertrac fleet is limited in France — allow 6 to 12 months' notice for weddings in high season (May-September), 3 to 5 months for corporate events in mid-season. A prior site survey is always carried out to validate the ground and access.
