About Us

At Best in Tents, we make festival camping easier, more comfortable, and more sustainable — without the stress of hauling, buying, or setting up gear you may only use once.

We’re a festival camping equipment rental company that prepares premium gear in advance so you can focus on enjoying the weekend — not wrestling with tents and tarps.

Why We Started

Like many festival lovers, we noticed a pattern:

  • People spend hundreds of dollars on disposable camping gear
  • They struggle with heavy equipment, confusing setups, and uncomfortable sleep
  • Most gear ends up abandoned in the trash after the weekend

That didn’t make sense — for festivalgoers or for the planet.

So we asked:

  • Why buy gear you’re only going to use once?
  • Why haul it?
  • Why fight with poles and stakes after a long day of shows?

Best in Tents was built to solve exactly that.

We provide reusable, high‑quality camping equipment and handle all the preparation so you don’t have to.

How It Works

Reserve Your Gear — Choose your festival and gear package.

Bring Your Festival Pass — You’re responsible for your own festival ticket/camping credentials.

Pickup at the Staging Area — Your rented gear is staged inside the campground before you arrive.

Camp Comfortably — Use the gear wherever your festival pass allows.

We Collect — After the event, we handle teardown and pickup.

This approach lets you enjoy the festival without extra work.

What Makes Us Different

Premium Gear, Ready to Go

We select gear that performs well in festival conditions — tough, weather‑resistant, and comfortable.

Sustainable by Design

Instead of buying disposable tents and mattresses you’ll leave behind, our gear is reused across events — reducing waste and landfill impact.

Flexible, Not Fixed

You’re free to use your rented gear anywhere permitted by the festival. We provide the equipment — you choose how to camp with it.

Shared Camp Gear Available

At many events, renters have access to shared camp equipment like shade seating, portable shower units, charging stations, and camp loungers. These are optional resources for renter use, not hospitality services.

We Are Gear People, Not Festival Operators

Best in Tents is independent and not affiliated with any festival promoter, venue, or event organizer, unless explicitly stated. We do not sell festival tickets, reserve campsites, or operate festival facilities.

We simply rent quality camping gear to festival attendees — gear that’s ready when you arrive and easy to use.

Sustainability Matters

Every year, tons of tents, chairs, and camping supplies are abandoned after events. We believe there’s a better way. By providing reusable equipment that gets cleaned, maintained, and redeployed across events, we help reduce waste and make festival camping more responsible.

Our Community

Our renters come from all walks of life, but they share one thing in common:

They want to spend less time with gear hassles and more time making memories.

And they love the convenience of walking up to their gear when they arrive, rather than unpacking a mountain of stuff from a car.

Ready to Camp Smarter?

Best in Tents is here to make your festival weekends easier, more comfortable, and more sustainable — one gear setup at a time.
