Pop Up Tent Guide

Over the past few years Pop up Tents have become increasingly more popular among new campers. Does this take out the whole 'point' of camping? Not at all!

Festivals whether music, car, art or anything you can think of have introduced people who aren't much for the great outdoors to weekends of camping. The pop up tent has reduced embarrassment of not being able to put together a complex tent when you have no experience in the matter.

Pop up tents are marketed on the fact that they can spring to life in under a minute and all the user has to do is throw it out, and peg it down. Ideal right? These tents started as simple 2 man tents but over the last few years have grown to 3 man tents, 4 man tents and even some family tents have become the popular pop up variety giving more people the confidence to GO Outdoors.

Words you may have heard when searching for Pop up Tents:

Quick Pitch - This is Gelert's own take on the Pop up Tent but does exactly the same job.

Pitch and Go - Hi Gear one of the newer tent manufacturers on the market call their Pop up Tents, Pitch and Go tents but they essentially serve the same purpose.

So if you are looking for a tent for the summer months, or just for camping out on the back garden then small Pop up Tents are ideal.

A common mistake is to think that these pop up tents aren't up to a camping holiday away. The larger pop up tents will do the job just as well as a standard tunnel or dome tent though space is limited as you would expect from a smaller tent.

Most tent brands are now bringing out their own versions of the classic pop up tent so shop around and you're likely to find one that will fit your needs just right.

That's all for now
