<![CDATA[Gorilla ‘Night Glow’ Festival Tent Review]]>Dear Mummy, it’s no secret that we love a good festival. With six under our belt already this year, we’re always looking for items to make our festival life easier, especially when it comes to camping at an event. We love the outdoors and we adore camping under the stars so imagine our wonderment when we heard of a UV ‘night glow’ festival tent.

Gorilla 'Night Glow' Festival Tent Review

We were sent a smiley emoji tent to review and my folks loved the pattern and the nod to the 90’s rave scene. In the daylight this tent is striking and almost glows with neon brightness. Gorilla Glow Tents are beyond funky – we love their designs. They don’t just look amazing though, they are also super roomy (plenty of space for three people or two with a blow up mattress) and 100% waterproof – keeping you dry and comfortable no matter the weather.

But the amazing thing about these tents is that they use Night Glow technology to help festival goers find their way back to their tents. You certainly wouldn’t lose this tent during the day and in the pitch black you can use your ‘Tent Finder Controller’ a small UV LED light and remote control to illuminate your tent and guide you back to your sleeping bag safely.

Check out our video to see what we mean!

The tents are quick and easy to pitch (pop-up and go) meaning you’ll spend less time setting up and more time enjoying a festival or camping. They are easily transportable too, folding up into a nifty carry bag with shoulder strap and packs super flat and lightweight. The poles are built-in and bendy and you also get some tent pegs and guide ropes included.

These tents are great fun and help you stand out at a festival or on a camp site. We took ours out for a spin in the back garden and check out our video to see it glow in the dark! It certainly is an unusual tent and we’ve never seen anything like it. Keep your eyes peeled for the sale on the Gorilla Tents website where you can pick up this 3-man tent for as little as £49.99. It makes a great starter tent for festival goers and people who want a quick pitch for a weekend getaway.
