We all love camping but sometimes even something as simple as getting changed or having a shower can present a major problem. For privacy and convenience wherever you are, a pop-up shower or changing tent can be a real winner. 

Set up in seconds, these tents give you somewhere private you can stand up to take a shower or to get changed. They can also be used as toilet cubicles. You can’t put a price on being able to enjoy a shower after a hard day’s hiking and these tents can be a great addition to your camping setup that all your family will benefit from. For photoshoots or any activity where you need to get dressed, these tents also work brilliantly. Typically they are made to pop-up instantly and don’t have floors to help water drain away if you are using a solar shower. Look for ventilation to help keep them fresh inside and good robust zips for getting in and out. Here are the pop-up shower tents we would recommend.
