Camping Tent Hire Plymouth
Plymouth, a city that is built on naval pride and a working-class identity that doesn’t do pretension, it’s a place where people graft hard and play harder. But there’s a creative shift happening too, a bid to become the UK city of culture 2029 is adding a new edge to a city that’s never needed permission to do its own thing. That same no-nonsense energy extends to how Plymouth does the outdoors. Dartmoor is right on your doorstep, Cornwall’s coastline starts just over the border, and some of the region’s best festivals such as Boardmasters, and the Great Estate are all within striking distance. Slightly further afield the likes of Glastonbury and Boomtown are also simple to reach. Which means the thing about living here is that no two trips look the same. One weekend you’re at a festival with thousands of people, the next you’re tucked away on Dartmoor with nothing but sheep for company. Buying one tent to cover all of that? You either end up with something too big for solo trips or too small when your mates decide to tag along. (or several different tents and not enough storage space!)
That’s where Earthrise Camping comes in.
Book online, and we’ll deliver your tent rental across Plymouth and Devon at least 24 hours before your hire date. With both 2-person and 4-person options, you hire what you actually need rather than making do with what you own. Enjoy your trip, send it back, we’ll handle the cleaning and maintenance. Every tent we hire out has been rescued and refurbished, giving unwanted tents a second life rather than letting them end up in landfill. It’s a system that keeps quality high and prices low, starting from just £7.50 per night plus a £20 refundable deposit and P&P. Check out our tent hire now.

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 Arpenaz 4.2 is ideal for families or groups of friends heading to festivals from Plymouth. More space for gear, comfortable sleeping arrangements, and robust weatherproofing.
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 Plymouth
Plymouth’s position at the gateway to the South West puts some of the UK’s best festivals within easy reach. Boardmasters is just over the border in Newquay, the Great Estate is a short hop into Cornwall, and head further east and you’re within range of Glastonbury, Boomtown and the wider south coast festival circuit. Devon has a thriving local scene too, with smaller boutique festivals popping up across the county every summer. So, whether you’re into surf culture, indie, folk or something heavier, there’s plenty on your doorstep. Plymouth’s rail links connect you straight to the main South West corridor, and the A38 and A30 make driving to most Cornish and Devon festivals straightforward. Below are some top options within easy reach:

Why Choose Earthrise Camping in Plymouth?
Flexible Delivery Options
Choose what works best for you: we can deliver directly to your Plymouth address and collect after the festival, or you can collect from your nearest Evri ParcelShop and drop back when you’re done. Perfect if you don’t have storage space or don’t want the hassle of keeping a tent you’ll only use once or twice.
Affordable Festival 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. No need for an upfront cost of £150-£200 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.
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. Better for your wallet and the planet.
Perfect for Festival-Goers
Whether you’re a Plymouth local heading to The Great Estate or a Plymouth University student that is planning a summer festival, we make camping simple. Focus more on the music and less on the tent buying hassle.
