The Ultimate Multi-Purpose Group Shelter

The Jamboree Mess Tent is a versatile canvas shelter designed to provide comfortable accommodation, communal living space and practical shelter for outdoor groups. Suitable for scouting organisations, outdoor education centres, event organisers and community groups, it combines traditional canvas construction with innovative features to create one of the most adaptable mess tents in the BCT Outdoors range.

Designed for Maximum Versatility

Originally redesigned by BCT Outdoors to provide greater flexibility than traditional mess tents, the Jamboree features removable front and rear panels, removable centre legs and zip-opening side walls. This allows the internal layout to be adapted to suit a wide range of activities, from accommodation and dining to exhibitions, fundraising events and communal meeting spaces.

Practical, Durable Construction

Manufactured from premium 393gsm (12oz) 100% cotton canvas, the Jamboree is fire retardant, water repellent, rot resistant and mildew resistant. The heavy-duty 28mm steel frame has been engineered to provide excellent rigidity whilst remaining easy to transport and assemble, making it ideal for repeated seasonal use.

Built for Repeated Seasonal Use

Designed for organisations that regularly operate outdoors, the Jamboree has been developed to withstand demanding environments year after year. Strong pegging points, reinforced roof sections and a durable steel framework ensure dependable performance, while removable components allow the shelter to be configured to suit changing weather conditions and different event requirements.

A Shelter That Adapts to Your Needs

Whether used as group accommodation, a dining shelter, village fête marquee, event hub or communal meeting space, the Jamboree offers exceptional flexibility without compromising on strength or durability. Its adaptable design makes it a popular choice for organisations looking for a practical shelter capable of serving multiple purposes throughout the year.
