Camping Tent Hire Leicester
Affordable Tent Rental For Festivals, Camping And Everything In Between
Leicester is a city that wears its diversity as a badge of honour. It’s one of the most multicultural cities in the UK and that’s not just a statistic, it’s something you feel walking through the Golden Mile, Belgrave Road and the city’s vibrant market. The “Leicester mix” isn’t a marketing slogan, it’s the genuine spirit of a community that celebrates its differences rather than glossing over them. That welcoming energy extends to everything the city does, from Diwali celebrations that are the largest outside of India to a food scene that reflects the world on a single high street.
Leicester is also a city looking forward. The Net Zero Strategy lays out a five-year action plan to slash carbon emissions across the city, updated annually to keep the pressure on. So a throwaway camping culture, cheap tents bought, used once and dumped, doesn’t sit well in a city that’s actively working to cut its environmental impact. When festival season rolls around and the likes of Download, 110 Above and The Long Road are all practically on your doorstep, there’s a smarter way to camp.
That’s where Earthrise Camping comes in.
Starting from just £7.50 per night plus a £20 refundable deposit and P&P, we deliver tent rentals across Leicester and Leicestershire at least 24 hours before your hire date and handle collection after you return. Every tent in our fleet has been rescued, refurbished and given a second life, meaning you can get quality kit at minimal cost and with zero waste. Plus, unlike every other tent hire company in the UK, you can return your tent wet and muddy, no cleaning fees, no penalties. We’re the only hire service with this policy, because this is British camping and we know what that really means. So, check out our tent hire now.

How It Works
A Snippet Of Our Camping Tent Rental Options
2 Person Tents
The Eurohike Cairns 2 DLX is a step up for anyone who wants a bit more from their festival tent. It comes with a proper porch area with its own built-in groundsheet, giving you somewhere to dump muddy boots and kit without bringing the festival floor into your sleeping space. The bedroom is roomy enough to fit a standard double airbed, so you’re not spending the weekend wedged against the side of the tent. Pitch is a doddle with colour coded poles, which means you’ll be setup quickly for a more comfortable weekend in no time.
4 Person Family Tents
Our Hampton 4 is the group tent for people who don’t want to rough it. The large living area gives you proper space to spread out, socialise, and store your kit, and with enough standing headroom to make sure you’re not hunching around all weekend. The bedroom can be divided into two separate sleeping zones or opened up into one big space, depending on your group. And with panoramic windows and mesh-backed doors keep the airflow going without letting the bugs in, so you can actually enjoy your evenings without zipping everything shut.
Professionally Cleaned & Maintained
Every tent is thoroughly cleaned, dried, and inspected between hires. We maintain high cleaning and hygiene standards so you receive a fresh, ready-to-use tent every time. No need to worry about festival grime from previous users.

Why Choose Earthrise Camping in Leicester?
Affordable Camping
Starting at just £7.50 per night with a £20 refundable deposit plus P&P, hiring a tent is more affordable than buying, especially if you only attend one or two festivals a year. Whether you’re a Leicester local heading to the 110 Above or a Leicester Uni student that is planning your summer festival, we make camping simple.
No need for an upfront cost of £75-£150 for a tent that you’ll store for 340+ days per year or buying a cheap £50 one that is about as robust as sleeping in a bin-bag. And unlike buying, you’re not left struggling to sell a used tent for a fraction of what you paid when you’re done with it. Meaning you’ll have more space for storage and less kit needlessly knocking around.
Delivery & Collection Sorted By Us
We bring the start of adventure to your doorstep and then take the muddy bits away once you’re done! We will deliver your tent the day before your hire starts and arrange collection the day after your hire end date. Just make sure to arrange a lazy day on the sofa, as our couriers will arrive between 7am and 8pm on those days.
Perfect if all you want to do is camp, as we handle the logistics across the UK.
Circular & Sustainable
We’re committed to reducing festival waste. Every tent we hire out prevents a tent being abandoned at a festival or ending up in landfill after one use.
Our tents are used multiple times, properly maintained and kept in circulation. We even save unwanted tents and put them into circulation. Better for your wallet and the planet.
No Hidden Clauses
Traditional tent hire companies often demand deposits of £100+ and have hidden cleaning and replacement charges.
We’re not like them! We know you just want to have a good time without worrying if that speck of dirt will cost you 30 quid of your deposit. So we handle the cleaning and you’ll only lose your deposit if the tent is returned in an unhygienic state, completely wrecked or not returned at all!
We’re laid back about minor damage and dirt, so you can enjoy yourself more.
