Glampville Expands Festival Experience with Luxury Stays and Secret Sets

Glampville, a luxury offsite glamping provider, has opened bookings for its accommodations during the 2025 Glastonbury Festival. 

Formerly known as Glastotel, the boutique camping site caters to festivalgoers seeking a high-end alternative to traditional camping.

For outdoor hospitality operators, Glampville’s approach highlights the growing demand for upscale accommodations at major events. The site offers a range of tents, from bell tents starting at £999 to boutique deluxe emperor tents priced at £3,797 for groups of four to six. 

Amenities include an onsite bar and food court with a cocktail bar and live music, well-maintained restrooms, hot showers, pamper tents, spa services, in-room power for premium packages, and an exclusive car park with a buggy transfer service.

Beyond luxury accommodations, Glampville has built a reputation as a festival destination in itself, hosting secret performances in 2024 featuring acts such as Gorgon City, Carlita, and Tove Lo. 

This model of integrating live entertainment with hospitality could provide insights for glamping operators looking to enhance guest experiences at festivals and events.

Glampville operates independently from Glastonbury Festival, meaning guests must secure their festival tickets separately, according to a report by NME. 

This business model underscores the viability of offering premium lodging experiences at major gatherings without direct affiliation with event organizers.

With the 2025 Glastonbury lineup featuring headliners Neil Young, The 1975, and Olivia Rodrigo, along with acts such as Biffy Clyro, Alanis Morissette, and Wolf Alice, demand for high-end festival accommodations is expected to be strong. 

The continued success of luxury camping options like Glampville suggests an opportunity for outdoor hospitality businesses to explore similar offerings at large-scale events, tapping into a market of attendees willing to pay a premium for comfort and convenience.
