India Camping Tent Market

India Camping Tent Market Overview:

The India camping tent market size reached USD 0.30 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 0.40 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.50% during 2025-2033. The India camping tent market is driven by increasing domestic tourism, government initiatives like Swadesh Darshan, rising adventure travel interest, expanding eco-tourism, social media influence, e-commerce availability of tents, and innovations in lightweight, weather-resistant camping gear catering to diverse consumer preferences.

India Camping Tent Market Trends:

Surge in Domestic Tourism and Outdoor Recreation

The Indian camping tent market is experiencing rapid development, led by an upsurge in domestic tourism and increasing demand for outdoor activities. With around 2,509.63 million domestic tourist arrivals in 2023 compared to 1,731.01 million in 2022 (Ministry of Tourism), demand for camping equipment, especially tents, has witnessed an upward trend. Camping is picking up steam in India as tourists look for cost-effective and interactive outdoor experiences. This has generated demand for long-lasting, weatherproof, and simple-to-assemble camping tents that are compatible with varied landscapes—from the Himalayas to beach areas and woodlands. Key players are reacting with innovations like lightweight and UV-resistant materials, and easy-to-set-up models to suit diverse consumer needs. The emergence of e-commerce platforms has also provided a further impetus to the market by making camping tents of high quality available throughout the country. Moreover, rental services and companies dealing in adventure tourism increasingly make bulk purchases of tents in order to service the increasing number of campers. With India's growing tourism sector and changing travel patterns, the camping tents market is expected to grow consistently.

Government Initiatives Promoting Tourism and Infrastructure Development

The Indian camping tent market is experiencing considerable progress, driven by government initiatives to promote tourism and infrastructure growth. Major initiatives such as the Swadesh Darshan and PRASHAD (Pilgrimage Rejuvenation and Spiritual Heritage Augmentation Drive) schemes are driving the market landscape. The Swadesh Darshan Scheme encourages theme-based tourist circuit development, which, in turn, results in the enhancement of camping facilities in priority destinations. When infrastructure like road connectivity, sanitation, and emergency services are better, camping becomes more accessible and secure, stimulating demand for better-quality tents. The PRASHAD Scheme increases this trend even further by enriching pilgrimage centers with specialized tourist facilities, demanding temporary outdoor dwellings such as camping tents. In addition, the government's focus on sustainable tourism and eco-tourism has found resonance in the growing consumer trend toward nature-oriented experiences. With increasingly designated camping areas and well-facilitated campsites, there is a corresponding rise in demand for weatherproof, long-lasting, and quick-to-assemble tents.
