Star Tents Above & Beyond
How much does it cost on average to buy a star tent?
What budget should you expect?
The price of a star tent depends on three main factors: the size, the type of fabric and the intended duration of use. Those looking for a tent for short-term events will naturally pay less than those investing in a long-term professional setup.
On average, star tents start at around €1,300 for a compact event model and can increase to €10,000 or more for larger, more durable versions.
StellarLite: ideal for events and temporary setups
The StellarLite is designed for short-term use. Thanks to its lightweight polyester fabric and quick installation, this model is popular for weddings, festivals and temporary hospitality setups.
Typical price ranges for single star tents are:
• €1,300 – €2,200 (10 m to 16 m diameter)
For double star tents, you should expect:
• €2,100 – €3,000 depending on the size
Stellar: for long-term and professional use
If you plan to leave the tent installed for a longer period or use it intensively, the Stellar range is the better choice. This version features a heavier PVC fabric and is developed for maximum stability and durability.
Average price indication:
• 15 m diameter: from approximately €6,500
• 18 m diameter: from approximately €9,000
Here, you are investing in robustness, longer lifespan and higher structural performance.
Which factors influence the price?
In addition to size, the following elements also play a role:
• type of fabric (polyester or PVC)
• diameter or double configuration
• colour choice
• intensity and frequency of use
A larger diameter means more covered surface area, but also more material and therefore a higher investment.
Don’t forget accessories and anchoring
The base price of a star tent generally includes the tent structure itself. Anchoring depends on the surface and situation, and is often selected separately.
You should also consider:
• sidewalls for additional shelter
• lighting
• flooring systems
• transport and storage solutions
These options increase the overall investment, but significantly enhance comfort and visual impact.
What is a realistic average budget?
In practice, we see that many customers typically invest:
• €1,500 – €2,500 for event-focused applications
• €6,500 – €10,000 for long-term professional setups
The “average” therefore strongly depends on your specific use case. A one-time garden party requires a different budget than a permanent hospitality setup.
Conclusion: align your investment with usage and lifespan
Buying a star tent is an investment in visual impact, capacity and flexibility. The right choice mainly depends on how often and how long you plan to use the tent.
