Camping Tent Hire Southampton
Southampton sits right at the centre of some of southern England’s best outdoor landscapes. The New Forest is practically on your doorstep, the South Downs stretch out to the east, and the North Wessex Downs are within easy reach to the north. Add a packed south coast festival calendar on top and you’ve got a city surrounded by reasons to camp. Whether you’re out every other weekend or just a couple of times a year, buying, storing, and maintaining your own gear doesn’t make much sense when you can just hire quality kit as and when you need it.
That’s where Earthrise Camping comes in.
We rescue unwanted tents, refurbish them and give them a second life, so you get quality kit without the price tag or the storage headache. Starting at just £7.50 per night plus a £20 refundable deposit and P&P, we deliver tent rental across Southampton and Hampshire at least 24 hours ahead of your hire date and handle collection after you return. No more cupboards full of gear you barely use and no more last-minute panic buys. Just book online, receive at your home or work, enjoy your trip and send it back. Simple, practical, sorted. So what are you waiting for?! Check out our tent hire now and save yourself some hassle.

Our most popular option for couples or friends. The Quechua 2 Second popup tent sets up quickly, perfect for festival camping when you want to spend less time pitching and more time enjoying the music.
4 Person Family Tents
Our Arpenaz 4.2 4 Person Tent is ideal for families or groups of friends heading to festivals from Southampton. More space for gear, comfortable sleeping arrangements, and robust weatherproofing.

Festivals Near Southampton

Why Choose Earthrise Camping in Southampton?
Flexible Delivery Options
Choose what works best for you: we can deliver directly to your Southampton 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 Southampton local heading to Mucky Weekender or a University of Southampton student that is planning your summer festival, we make camping simple. Focus more on the music and less on the tent buying hassle.
