The Glamping Show 2024: A Decade of Success
The Glamping Show 2024 was held from September 19th to 21st at the NAEC Stoneleigh, marking a special milestone as the event celebrated its 10th anniversary. The show has been at the heart of the glamping sector for a decade, and this year’s edition was a testament to its continued importance.
International Glamping Business is thrilled to once again be the Official Show Guide for the go-to event for industry professionals and aspiring glamping operators alike. Visitors had three full days to explore the latest innovations, products and services from 100 exhibitors – 31 of which were brand new this year.
I would like to commend the team on another great show – we’ve come away happy. -Thomas Grainger, DOM UK
The Exhibitors
This year, The Glamping Show welcomed 31 new exhibitors to the show ground, such as Outdore, FAT Huts, Full Circle Saunas, Scenic Capsule Company and ÖÖD Mirror House. From new eco-friendly accommodation to cutting-edge technology, attendees had a lot to discover.
As a returning exhibitor, I was pleasantly surprised at the level of footfall, how busy we all were on the first day, and the quantity and quality of leads. - Darren Barker, Mattressman
Returning exhibitors also showcased exciting new developments in their offerings – with the Woodpecker Tubs team debuting its new sauna – which ensured that both new and returning visitors left with plenty of inspiration for their businesses.
Celebrating a Decade
To mark its 10th anniversary, The Glamping Show held a special evening celebration on Friday 20th in the Entertainment Tipi. The event brought together exhibitors for an evening of entertainment, food and drinks to reflect on how far the glamping sector has come over the past decade.
“Celebrating ten years of The Glamping Show is a testament to the growth and resilience of the glamping industry,” said Peter Rusbridge, Director of Swan Events, organisers of TGS. “We’ve seen the evolution of the industry over the past decade, and we’re proud to provide a platform where businesses can continue to showcase their growth.”
The best organised and smoothest show we do all year. TGS has the friendliest and most helpful team of any show we exhibit at, and I’m looking forward to returning in 2025. - Warren Taylor, Moorlands Garden Furniture
Seminar Programme
As always, the seminar programme at The Glamping Show 2024 was a major highlight. Featuring an array of industry experts and successful business owners, the seminar tent was packed with eager attendees every day of the show.
For us, exhibiting at The Glamping Show is a window to the world of glamping. The show is an important part of our business. - Andrew Daniels, Woodpecker Tub
Looking Ahead
The show has once again proven its importance as a hub for networking, learning, and business development. The 10th anniversary edition set a high bar, and exhibitors and attendees alike are already looking forward to what The Glamping Show 2025 will bring.
Dates are already confirmed for next year, with the show returning on September 18th, 19th and 20th at the NAEC Stoneleigh.
