Podpads Reviews 78

None of the promised add ons were there or up to a good standard. Not sure what you are getting other than a basic tent. Wouldnt recommend.

We booked the pre pitched camping at all together now 2025.

It cost €500 (including deposit) for what was essentially just a pre-pitched 4-person Vango tent. For that price, we expected at least some basic extras — but there was no access to showers, clean drinking water,hand sanitizers (empty from day1), or even a recycling bin. The pamper parlour was not existent and the phone charging area was a suspect looking extension lead. The toilets were actually a bio hazard by day 2 and were unlimitedly unusable.

If you're okay with paying premium prices for the bare minimum, then this might be fine for you. But in our experience, this felt like a poor deal and a major letdown. Other pre-pitched services at festivals have offered much more for less, so this really didn’t live up to expectations.

We stayed with Podpads at All Together Now 2025 (classic safari bell tent option) and we were very happy with our booking, clean site, great facilities, plenty of showers and the customer service team were very quick to reply to queries about our booking in the run up to the festival. Highly recommended.

Really great setup at All Together Now. Excellent facilities and really close to the festival site. The fact that they had their own car park was an extra bonus.

Stayed with Podpads for ATN 2025. After the long long walk in from the car park I was greeted by a very unprofessional and unhelpful member of staff. She had little to no knowledge of the lay out of the campsite. Podpads ask you to put in your friends reference number if you would like to be put beside them. I put this information in last February and was not put with my friends. I understand this is not always possible but the member of staff I met just replied with 'oh ya we have had alot of that issue today'. I was very disappointed as I made sure to put this information in as early as possible.
Podpads describe on their website when booking that the campsite will have showers, pamper area, charging facilities and drinking water. There was 3 sockets available and no drinking water and no pamper area. The toilets were rarely cleaned and 1 hand sanitiser for the entire campsite.
The 4 person tent provided is very good quality cannot fault, that but the campsite itself lacking the facilities advertised and not being with friends was very disappointing.

Have stayed in Pink Moon at EP and it's way better service. Would not recommend Pod Pads. 100 euro to rent a tent. Absolutely no services at all.Not sure what I paid for.

We've stayed with Podpads for many years now and have always really enjoyed it - friendly staff, more than comfortable accommodation, great and clean facilities. The location of the campsite is amazing with very quick access from the dedicated car park and then quick and easy access to the arena. Already looking forward to next year at All Together Now!

4th year now with Podpads and can’t wait to book next year! Different layout this year, we stayed in the Old Wood which was closer to the car park but further away from the festival…we still had everything on our doorstep, showers, toilets, pamper room & traders. Check in was a breeze. The classic tent we got was like brand new and perfect for us. Could not recommend highly enough ❤️

Our 4th year camping with podpads and they did not disappoint! My partner and I stayed in the classic bell tent and it was our favourite setup by far! The tent was very good quality and came with air mattress, lantern, tables, duvet, pillows and towels. The tents had zippable air vents for when it gets to hot during the day. The location was slightly different this year, shorter walk from the car park but further from the arena (quieter so a better sleep was had). The site was clean and easy to navigate and we were never queuing longer than 15 mins for a shower!

Just back from my weekend at All Together Now. Had another great weekend camping with PodPads, I’ve never been let down in my past four years of camping with them. Lovely staff, very straight forward check in and entry to the boutique campsite. The tent was gorgeous and clean with all the amenities needed.

I have been asked twice now by Podpads to take down my one star review of their pre-pitched camping service at the recent ATN festival as they have nothing to do with the facilities on site.

I feel the service still deserves a 1 star review as they LITERALLY charged us €500 (€450, if/when we getting our €50 deposit back) to pre-pitch a Vango 4-man tent.

This price DOES NOT include access to on-site showers, drinking water, mattresses, hand sanitizer station or recycling bin. If you are happy to pay this, by all means go ahead but in our opinion this service at this price remains a complete rip-off. Maybe we should have done more research but previous pre-pitch festival experiences had lead us to expect these basic facilities in our pre-pitch camping area. If Podpads cannot guarantee these facilities in their pre-pitch area, then the price should be lowered to reflect this. We felt this was a complete waste of money


ORIGINAL REVIEW

Just back from All Together Now and paid €500 to literally have someone pitch a tent. This included a €50 deposit which we have not yet received. There was no drinking water or showers in the pre-pitched area. There was one hand sanitizer which we only discovered on the last day as it was out of sight. I'm not sure whether this was added at a later stage as nobody in the pre-pitched area seemed to be aware that it was there. The toilets were disgusting and did not flush at all so toilet paper and excrement just piled up. There was no recycling bin. A complete waste of money. I do not recommend.

All Together Now 2025 - Another Great year with PodPads. Even with the slight change in location we still had everything right on our door step. Short walk from the car park and into the main stage area. Showers & toilets always clean. 8 years staying with PodPads between ATN and Electric Picnic. They are so helpful when you arrive and always reachable for any queries before the festival. They value Loyal customers. Their tents are spacious, clean and well put together. Can't wait for next year already. Thanks again ❤️✌🏼

This will be our 3rd year staying with PodPads at All Together Now. It's just the icing on the cake 🎂 to top off such an excellent venue and festival. Podpads are so easy to deal with and easy to access from the carpark. A full 5 🌟 experience from start to finish.

We used Pod Pads last year for All Together Now. We got such a nice welcome and we were brought to our tent and helped with our bags. There was a slight issue with water getting into our tent but I emailed them after and they offered us a free tent next year. Everyone I'm customer service is so helpful.

We have used Podpads for various festivals 5 times, most recently at ATN 2024. Spacious tents, hot showers, pamper parlour and clean toilets make for a more enjoyable experience. The short walk from the car park makes the trek in very manageable. Also great to be so close to the main arena. I’ll never forget my first açai bowl from one of the food stalls. Amazing! Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Already looking forward to ATN 2025 and will definitely be booking with Podpads again!

We spent an amazing 5 days staying in an Octopad in hospitality camping at Glastonbury this year. Podpads were amazing - they were welcoming, fun, professional, the accommodation was fantastic. We've already booked to go back again next year which says it all really! Thank you Podpads.

We stayed in a Podpad bell tent at We Out Here 2024 and the experience was brilliant! The tent was very comfy with a set up double bed, duvet, pillows and mirror. The toilet and shower facilities in the boutique camping area were very clean. I'd 100% recommend staying with Podpads for a comfortable and more luxious festival experience!

Dream from start to end…. Lovely check in, comfy beds, warm showers and blue skies! Will defo be a Podpal again!

We booked an 8-person tent for ATN in Waterford. Check-in was seamless, shower/coffee/food was nearby and access to the VIP area was an added bonus if you wanted drinks or proper toilets that weren't too far from main stage. We hope they come back to ATN in the future.

It was our first time with podpads at All Together Now and we were really impressed. Great set up, lovely staff and facilities. We have the basic person Tipi and it was like new, really comfortable. Facilities were perfect, showers open 24/7 and access to the VIP bar with the 'fancy' loos too. Really close to main stage so handy for popping back to the tent for drinks too. We'll definitely be back.
