For festival-goers looking for a more luxurious concert experience, Glastonbury is now offering a series of high-end accommodations dubbed 'Camp Kerala.' Combining the comforts of a boutique hotel with the energetic festival atmosphere, the plush accommodations give consumers a new way to experience outdoor music festivals.
Glastonbury's Camp Kerala consists of a series of bespoke Shikar tents complete with carpeting, real beds, fresh flowers and even complimentary bottles of champagne. In addition to the lavish accommodations, Camp Kerala also includes round-the-clock tent service, spa treatments, an on-site restaurant and bar and a nutritious breakfast hamper each morning. Guests will also enjoy exclusive late-night events with other well-heeled festival-goers.
While a stay at the luxury accommodations does not come cheap, the promotion is likely to appeal to millennials looking for a more exclusive festival experience.
