Bell Tent Sussex Wins Medium Business of the Year
We are incredibly proud to share that Bell Tent Sussex has won Medium Business of the Year at the Sussex Business Awards. This is a major milestone for our team, our customers and our journey in the UK glamping and outdoor events industry.
A business built on taking risks and rolling the dice
When Bell Tent Sussex began, nothing was guaranteed. We grew by taking bold risks, rolling the dice when others played safe and believing in the potential of high quality tents and outdoor experiences in the UK.
What started with a passion for premium bell tents and has grown into a multi brand group trusted by festivals, events, glamping operators, trade buyers and private customers across the country.
This award reflects that journey. Long nights on the road, building sites in all weather, constantly improving our products and service and always choosing innovation instead of comfort. Every decision, every risk and every lesson has helped shape Bell Tent Sussex into what it is today.
Why this award matters for our customers
Winning Medium Business of the Year is not just a title. It is recognition of:
- Our focus on quality tents and reliable outdoor event solutions
- Our commitment to genuine customer support and honest advice
- Our investment in long term partnerships with trade and retail customers
- Our ability to scale while keeping a personal, responsive service
- Our growing role in the UK glamping and outdoor hospitality market
It also reflects the strength of the relationships we have built with our European manufacturing partners, event organisers and loyal customers who return year after year.
Supporting the UK glamping and outdoor events industry
Bell Tent Sussex is much more than a tent supplier. We actively support and mentor new trade customers who are launching or growing glamping sites, rental businesses and outdoor hospitality projects.
Alongside our sister company Glamping Adventures, we operate more than 300 luxury tents nationwide and hold long term contracts at major events including Glastonbury and Silverstone. This real world operational experience gives us a deep understanding of:
- Which bell tents, stretch tents and safari tents perform best over time
- How to maximise return on investment for trade fleets
- How to plan layouts and infrastructure for large events and glamping sites
- How to maintain and protect tents for long term use
When customers ask us for advice, they are not just speaking to a retailer. They are tapping into years of hands on experience in glamping operations, festival infrastructure and outdoor hospitality projects across the UK.
A huge thank you to our team and community
Behind every bell tent, stretch tent and safari tent installation is a team that works extremely hard. Our crew load trucks at dawn, work through rain and wind, solve problems on site and make sure every project is delivered to a high standard.
This award belongs to them as much as it does to the business. It is also shared with our customers, partners and the Sussex business community who have supported Bell Tent Sussex from the early days through to this award winning stage.
What comes next for Bell Tent Sussex
Winning Medium Business of the Year is not the finish line. It is a platform for the next chapter. We are continuing to:
- Expand our range of bell tents, stretch tents and safari tents
- Develop new products and outdoor living solutions for trade and retail customers
- Strengthen partnerships with festivals, events and glamping operators
- Invest in training, installation services and aftercare support
With Bell Tent Sussex and Glamping Adventures continuing to grow we are excited about the future of outdoor hospitality.
