Quick-up gazebo recommendation

[Andysmee]

Sounds strange but I'm not looking for an awning or anything to use with the van setup, I'm looking for a quick-up gazebo for cricket matches, so it needs to be easy for me to drag out of the van, pull the 4 corners away from each other and pitch on my own, not an event shelter with poles or any of that business.

We bought a Halfrauds one once upon a time and it broke on first use, so I need to have a proper recommendation, not an off brand off Amazon/ebay. Any ideas?

Thanks

I frequent another car forum where there are many who drive competitively and/or do lots of track days. I’ve asked the question. Ez-up is a brand mentioned already. I’ll reply again when I get more info.

I’ve visited a few of the competition events and one observation is that the shelters are typically on tarmac so they use spare wheels or 20L bottles of water to tether them down. Perhaps a consideration for finely manicured cricket pitches. You dont want to get into bother hammering tent pegs in all over the infield!

You could use beer kegs too

What about a Cinch tent. Easy to put up (a bit more tricky to put away). All four panel stow away to leave an open shelter.

I have one of these.... Got local on Gumtree with 4 sides, sandbags and carry case. It was up for an extended period and held up well. Could be put up single-handed but prob easier and user with two. Very bulky and heavy so perhaps doesn't fit the bill!

Quest seems to be popular.

Berghaus Air Shelter is what you need. Pump it up in minutes and just need to peg the corners.

So summary of the feedback :-

Several more recommendations for Ez-up, one for All Season Gazebo’s and one for Coleman which I’m sure you know is poled like a tent.

A while ago, I did see a picture of a T2 camper parked inside a coleman shelter, which takes the driveaway awning to a whole new level! I wonder if a T6 would fit? Might need to be on air and crawl in!

You haven't seen the average village cricket field, clearly! This would be pitched being the boundary so tent pegs are fine
