Some festivals don’t allow revellers to take gazebos to campsites due to limited space and the crowd such festivals command.
For example;
Glastonbury Festival and Festaff Festivals, as part of the rules for campers, don’t accept gazebos or tents that take up space. Basically, the answer is dependent on which festival you are going to.
Nevertheless, there are many festivals that allow you to bring in a pop-up gazebo.
Where they are accepted, gazebos are great items you can take to winter festivals, music festivals, arts festival, film festivals, food festivals and religious festivals.

Download Festival allows gazebos into camp.
Your ticket to camp covers a camping space of 9m × 7m at the Campervan Site. You can decide to pitch your gazebo in the space provided.
What this implies is that you’ll have to look for gazebos that aren’t larger than the required size while shopping for one.
It’s going to be muddy or wet underneath, why not be one of the posh ones and take a waterproof picnic blanket with you?
