What Festivals Have Glamping in the UK?

We are a firm believer that if you are going to go camping - it needs to be a luxury. Which is why we love Glamping so much - for those who are new around here or to the term of glamping - it simply comes from mashing up Glamour and Camping - boom! You've got Glamping.

Festivals aren't really known for their luxury amenities usually - it's usually a muddy field you go with your friends, go see some amazing music and then retreat back to your pop up tent and try to sleep while all your neighbours continue to blast music. Well... not for long! Most festivals have finally opened their eyes and are now taking the time to set up luxury tents with amenities like showers and proper toilets (amazing right!?) to offer festival-goers an elevated experience.

We decided to have a look through and see how many Festivals had a Glamping option and these are all the ones we could find - we are a little late posting this in mid 2024 so apologies if we missed any!
