I wouldn't mind camping in my own tent, but my son and mum aren't keen at all after we baked and then were nearly blown aaway with a storm in Romania. I swayed them with the glamping option - didn;t realise they'd be sold out in less than a minute!!!
Yeah actually, I suppose it makes sense to book end the calendar with two big announcements.
(Apologies for the double post, just looking at replies now)
supply and demand.. exactly! So if you're arranging a festival where there are zero hotel options within a 30-minute drive, and you know demand for glamping is going to be off the scale, maybe it would make sense to provide enough glamping options so as they're not sold out within 30 seconds?!
It can't be a lack of space as the 'tent hotel' is still on sale... So why not add more larger canvas tents or wodden platform tents, which are clearly in high demand, and reduce the basic tent options which clearly aren't? The answer probably has something to do with the fact they're charging almost 300EUR for a basic 2-man tent, so there's more profit to be made in that.
I think I'll be cancelling my tickets... I didn't realsie when I booked that there'd be so few options. I had to convince my family to camp as we had a nightmare with the weather at Electric Castle this year... I managed to sway them with the glamping, but there's no way will they want to do the same thing again at RfP so we're going to have to cancel 😞
