Camping Tent Hire Bangor

Affordable Tent Rental For Festivals, Camping And Everything In Between

Bangor might be one of the smallest cities in the UK, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in character. Nestled between Snowdonia (Eryri) and the Menai Strait, it’s a city where the Welsh language is part of everyday life and the mountains are practically an extension of the city itself. Bangor University punches well above its weight for it’s size and its student population makes up a huge chunk of the cities population, bringing an energy that keeps this ancient cathedral city feeling young. But student life in Bangor means student budgets, so when festival season rolls around, the last thing you need is to blow £75-£150 on camping gear you might use once. Especially when that money could go towards, well, the actual festival! And with Snowdonia’s wild landscapes right outside your door, plus Welsh festivals like Gottwood, Tonnau Tropical Garden Party and Wild Festivals North Wales all within reach, there’s no shortage of reasons to need a tent without the commitment of owning one.

That’s where Earthrise Camping comes in.

Pitch is a doddle with colour coded poles, which means you’ll be setup quickly for a more comfortable weekend in no time.

Festivals Near Bangor

Bangor’s position in North Wales gives you access to a surprisingly diverse festival scene. Gottwood is right on your doorstep on Anglesey, Tonnau Tropical Garden Party brings something completely different to the North Wales coast, and Wild Festivals North Wales offers a proper outdoor experience in the surrounding countryside. Head further afield and Green Man is a few hours south into the Brecon Beacons, while east along the A55 puts you within reach of Creamfields and the wider north-west festival circuit. North Wales has its own growing scene too, with smaller Welsh-language and community festivals scattered across the region throughout summer. Rail connections from Bangor run straight along the north Wales coast and into England, making festivals further afield more accessible than you’d expect from a city this tucked away.

Why Choose Earthrise Camping in Bangor?

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 Bangor local heading to Gottwood or a University of Bangor 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.

Flexible Delivery Options

Choose what works best for you: we can arrange to deliver and collect your tent (via UPS) directly to your address, or you can collect from your nearest Evri ParcelShop and drop back there when you’re done.

Perfect if all you want to do is camp, as we handle the logistics across the UK.

Affordable tent hire from Earthrise Camping

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.
