Camp Kindling

The Parade sets the tone for the best weekend EVER 🎉

Dancing through the forest with our band is the best way to start the weekend!

The idea for the parade actually came from a camper many years ago who suggested it. We tried it for one year, and we loved it! But, more importantly, you did too!

It's becoming something of a tradition now 😍

Will we be seeing you and your family in the parade this year?

Want a ticket to this summers SOLD OUT events?

Got a spare ticket or accommodation you don't need?
Let us match you, so we have two happy families! 🥰

After years of trying third-party solutions for this, we decided to build our own brand new marketplace! We've managed to add a lot of features that others can't, hopefully, this makes it a better experience for both buyers and sellers. Please give us any feedback if you use it!

☑️ Handy Payment Plans
Buyers can split the cost of marketplace purchases across multiple months using our zero-interest, zero-fee payment plan service.

🧩 Easy Package Matching
Our technology can mix tickets and accommodation from multiple sellers to provide buyers with the best packages without any effort from either party.

💬 Great Customer Service
With no third parties involved our customer service team can help with every step of the buying and selling process.

🤝 Simple System
Everything is connected to our website so you don't have to worry about setting up accounts with anyone else and we can make it intuitive and easy.

⚖️ Fair Fixed Pricing
All tickets are sold at a fixed price, so sellers cannot profit and buyers cannot undercut, keeping it a genuine and fair community marketplace.

📉 Lower Fees
Third parties were charging 8% or more in fees, we've managed to reduce that to 5% which covers the costs for building, running and marketing this service.

🛡️ Guaranteed By Us
All transactions are safe, secure and guaranteed by us.

Parents! 📚

Seeing our kids in their World Book Day costumes is undeniably sweet (even if making/buying them is quite the mission!) but let's not forget about ourselves.

We're curious - what was YOUR favourite book as a child? Take a look at some of our team's childhood picks - do any of them ring a bell? Have we missed any?
