The glamping market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the glamping market has experienced significant expansion in the past few years. The market is projected to increase from $3.07 billion in 2024 to $3.39 billion in 2025, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%.
This growth throughout the historic period can be credited to factors such as the attraction towards nature and exploration, evolving tourism trends, the upswing in eco-tourism, cultural movement towards valuing experiences, marking special events, and enhancements in infrastructure.
The glamping market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Anticipated swift expansion is expected to be seen in the glamping market size over the coming years. It's projected to increase to an estimated $5.49 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8%.
This growth during the forecast period is believed to be driven by factors such as wellness and retreats, family-oriented glamping, integration of adventure tourism, corporate retreats, and the expansion of global tourism. Key trends for the period include the inclusion of advanced technology and connectivity, glamping options tailored for families, glamping-themed events and festivals, pet-accommodating glamping sites, and partnerships with local craftspeople and designers.
The rise in staycations is projected to fuel the expansion of the glamping market in the future. A staycation is the concept of taking an eco-friendly vacation near one's home, causing the absolute minimum environmental pollution and promoting relaxation. Glamping enhances this staycation experience by providing conventional lodging solutions and facilities in a camping-like atmosphere. For example, a 2022 survey of 1,000 Verdant Leisure customers, a UK-based holiday home provider, reveals that 84% are likely to opt for a staycation in 2023. Moreover, over half (56%) of the respondents indicated that the cost-of-living crisis would sway their decision towards a staycation rather than an overseas holiday. Thus, the burgeoning trend of staycations suggests an increasing demand for glamping, thereby pushing the growth of the glamping market.
