Structure & materials

What you need to know about your yourte de réception

The reception yurt is a round structure inherited from the nomadic dwellings of Central Asia: a timber lattice (the khana) forms a cylindrical wall, topped by a low conical roof whose poles radiate towards a central crown (the toono). Covered with canvas and insulating felt, it gives off a warm, cocooning atmosphere that few event structures can reproduce. Note that the yurt is not to be confused with the tipi: the tipi is a tall cone with poles crossed at the top, of Native American inspiration; the yurt is round, with straight walls and a flat conical roof, better insulated and more sociable for sitting in a circle. It is this intimacy that makes it a sought-after structure for boho and nature weddings, warm winter receptions, wellness and lounge areas, or the fireside corner of a larger event. The yurt is hired as a single unit for an intimate format or in a cluster of several linked modules for higher capacities. The cost of hiring a reception yurt depends on the diameter (6 to 12 m), the number of modules, the options (flooring, wood burner / heating, walls, decoration) and the location. As a guide, the ranges seen in 2026 run from €1,500 to €3,500 excl. VAT for a reception yurt, with clusters of several yurts being the subject of a bespoke quote.

For which event?

Boho & nature wedding

The yurt sets the tone for a warm, authentic wedding: exposed wood, felt, rugs, soft light filtering through the central crown. On its own for an intimate ceremony or in a cluster for the reception, it creates a welcoming cocoon that is a radical change from a conventional hall.

Warm winter reception

Thanks to its insulating felt and central wood burner, the yurt is one of the few structures designed for the cold. It turns an end-of-year party, a winter birthday or a family meal into a cosy moment, sheltered and warm, even when it is snowing outside.

Wellness, spa & lounge area

A hushed atmosphere, an enveloping shape, subdued light: the yurt is ideal for a relaxation area, a pop-up spa, a meditation room or a VIP lounge within a larger event. A use increasingly requested at seminars and festivals.

Glamping & unusual accommodation

Well equipped, the yurt offers an unusual, comfortable overnight stay in the heart of an estate or a resort. An elegant way to extend a wedding or a corporate event with a nature accommodation experience.

Fireside & chill-out area of a large event

Alongside a marquee or a reception tent, a yurt makes a fireside corner, a smoking area or an after-work space with a unique atmosphere. The contrast of materials (felt and wood vs tensioned canvas) enriches the overall staging.

What to plan for

  • Ground: grass, earth or terrace — a wooden floor recommended for comfort and thermal insulation.
  • Insulation: the felt and the double cover make the yurt a naturally warmer structure than a tipi or a single canvas — a major advantage in mid-season and winter.
  • Setup time: 3 to 6 h per module depending on the diameter; clusters of several yurts require a dedicated day.
  • Capacity: ~20 seated guests under an 8 m yurt, ~40 under 12 m; beyond that, several modules are linked.
  • Season: usable all year round; the central wood burner or an auxiliary heater clearly extends the cold season.
  • Wind & rain: water-repellent cover and a low structure offering good wind resistance; anchoring suited to the ground always provided.
  • Permit: temporary installation — declaration to the town hall recommended depending on duration and area.

FAQ

Everything to know before hiring your reception yurt

8 practical answers to prepare your reception yurt hire: capacities, prices, materials, logistics.

They are two distinct round structures. The tipi is a tall cone, formed of long poles crossed at the top and open at the apex — of Native American inspiration, it rises high and stretches the volume upwards. The yurt is a dwelling from Central Asia: a cylindrical wall of timber lattice topped by a low conical roof, covered with insulating felt. The yurt is therefore rounder, lower, better insulated and warmer; the tipi taller and more spectacular in height. For a warm winter reception, the yurt is preferred; for a sense of height, the tipi.

The price depends on the diameter (6 to 12 m), the number of modules, the flooring, the heating and the decoration. As a guide, the ranges seen in 2026 run from €1,500 to €3,500 excl. VAT for a reception yurt; clusters of several yurts for a large event are the subject of a bespoke quote. Bespoke response within 24 h.

Allow around 20 seated guests under a yurt of 8 m in diameter and up to about forty under a yurt of 12 m. For higher capacities, several yurts are linked in a cluster so as to keep the cocoon feel while increasing capacity. Our team advises you on the right size for your number of guests.

Yes, and it is one of its great strengths. Its insulating felt makes it naturally warmer than most canvas structures, and a central wood burner or an auxiliary heater means you can host comfortably even in very cold weather. The yurt is one of the few structures genuinely designed for winter receptions.

Absolutely. On its own, it hosts a ceremony or an intimate dinner with a boho atmosphere; in a cluster of several modules, it makes up a complete reception (cocktail, dinner, fireside corner). Its warm atmosphere and natural aesthetic make it a very popular alternative for weddings looking to step away from the conventional hall format.

Yes. The outer cover is water-repellent and designed to shed rain, while the central crown (toono) can be closed off with a cap in bad weather. Well erected and properly anchored, the yurt protects guests in all weathers.

Response within 24 h with the date, the location and the number of guests. As with any structure of character, booking 3 to 6 months in advance is recommended in high season; cluster configurations of several yurts need extra lead time for the setup logistics.

Ideally, allow 3 to 6 weeks to prepare your event with peace of mind and keep your choice of options and equipment. In high season (May to September) or for a wedding, book 6 to 12 months ahead. For urgent requests, our teams can step in within 48 to 72 h depending on availability and the complexity of the project.
