Affordable Tent Rental For Festivals, Camping And Everything In Between
With its seven-mile stretch of award-winning coastline and a social pulse driven by a 17,000-strong student population, Bournemouth is a town designed for the outdoors. Between the creative energy of Arts University Bournemouth and the sprawling community at Bournemouth University, the town doesn’t just host events; it breathes festival culture. For the local student, a festival isn’t just a weekend away, it’s a break from the academic year and a reward for hard work and months of library sessions.
But if you’ve never done a festival before, dropping £50-£150 on camping gear you’re not even sure you’ll enjoy using is a big ask. What if it rains and you hate it? What if you love it but the cheap tent you bought falls apart within a couple of days? (Trust us, this happens a lot with cheap tents!). Either way, you’re stuck with kit you don’t want.
That’s where Earthrise Camping comes in.
We rescue unwanted tents, refurbish them and give them a second life, so you can test the waters without the financial risk. Our deposit is a flat £20 with no further charges even if the tent gets wrecked, so there’s nothing to lose. Starting at just £7.50 per night plus a £20 refundable deposit and P&P, we deliver tent rentals across Bournemouth and Dorset at least 24 hours ahead of your hire date and handle collection after you return. Just book online, receive at your home or work, enjoy your trip and send it back. Simple, risk-free, sorted. So, check out our tent hire now.

How It Works
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.
Festivals Near Bournemouth
Living in Bournemouth means you’re perfectly placed for festival season. You’re right on the south coast, surrounded by some of the UK’s biggest and best-loved events. Boomtown Fair is just up the road in Winchester, Camp Bestival pops up along the Dorset coast, and the legendary Glastonbury Festival is only a couple of hours west. Head the other way and you can be at the Isle of Wight Festival with a quick ferry from Lymington or Southampton.
The south coast’s festival calendar is seriously stacked. Whether you’re into massive, all-out, multi-day parties or smaller, more laid-back weekenders, there’s something for every taste, from rock to electronic, to folk and plenty in between. With solid train links and easy access to the A31 and M27, most of them are simple to get to, whether you’re driving, jumping on a train or booking a festival coach.
Here are some of the best festivals you can reach without too much hassle:

Why Choose Earthrise Camping in Bournemouth?
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 Bournemouth local heading to Camp Bestival festival or a University of Bournemouth 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.
