When you think of Glastonbury, you might picture mud-splattered wellies, collapsing tents, and zero sleep. But what if you could swap all that for luxury linens and a cocktail on arrival?
For a casual £28,999—the price of a small house deposit—you can experience Glasto’s most expensive accommodation option and dance the weekend away without sacrificing comfort.
Described as “Glastonbury’s ultimate glamping experience”, these rooms come equipped with double beds, hot tubs, flushing toilets, and 24/7 room service.
Not only that, but you will have access to a gorgeous private living room complete with leather and wooden furniture, carpets, rugs, and swanky mood lighting.

And while the price tag may sting, remember: The tent sleeps up to 10. Split it between you and nine mates, and it’s £2,900 each for a weekend.
The gated Pop-Up Hotel complex that offers this luxurious package is a privately-run company not affiliated with the festival itself, yet they only sell to those who have already purchased a ticket.
Spa treatments, hot showers, and full-time security are just a few more of the benefits you will receive if you choose to shell out on your camping experience.
Oh yeah, and did we mention the helicopter you can opt to have fly to and from the festival? That’s right—this year, Pop-Up Hotel is offering the option to fly the final 30 miles into Glastonbury to avoid the gridlocked traffic. This add-on starts from £1,399 per person for a return flight.
Celebs like Brad Pitt, Poldark’s Aidan Turner, and Made In Chelsea’s Millie Mackintosh have all been spotted living the luxe Glasto life in these tents. So really, it’s practically a bargain…right?
The room is part of a complex with 212 flashy tents located just a 10 minute walk from the festival site outside of Worthy Farm.

Mark Sorrill, who runs the Pop-Up Hotel alongside his wife Victoria, said:
“We have tried to do the tents to the best that they can be. We try and raise the bar each year.
“At just a 10 minute walk from the main gate to the festival, we like to provide a place where our guests can just chill out either before or after seeing their favourite bands at the festival.
“We have our own laid-back, live acoustic sets on site for when guests aren’t out at the festival, and we’ve booked guest chefs including Tim Maddams for our restaurant.”
However, if this all seems a little pricey for what could be viewed as a glorified tent, that’s okay too. The Pop-Up Hotel has cheaper options available, starting from £2,999 for five nights for two people.
Or just embrace the mud, squeeze into your tent, and enjoy Glasto the old-fashioned way.
