What is Best in Tents?
Best in Tents is a premium camping service that provides fully set-up, luxury tent rentals at music festivals across the country. We handle everything — from setup to breakdown — so you can just show up and enjoy the experience.
Note: For certain events that emphasize self-reliance, such as the one held annually in Black Rock Desert, our rentals are equipment-only. We’ll provide all gear and clear instructions to help you handle setup and breakdown yourself.
