If you’ve ever spent much time camping, you know it’s all about the gear. You have to have the right size tent that’s light and easy to pack down, a portable stovetop for cooking meals and getting that essential morning coffee ready, comfy sleeping bags and so much more. We say leave the fuss for someone else to handle and book into a place that does it all for you instead! Opt for a glamping trip and you can still enjoy all the perks of camping - like fireside chats and time spent under the stars - with none of the hassle. Best of all, this is the easiest way to bring a whole bunch of friends along for the ride. We’re excited about a lot of tented campsites this summer, from a luxurious bubble tent in the Maldives to a Bedouin safari camp in Wadi Rum. There are Airstreams throughout America that can be rented for special gatherings or just to sleep in for a night or two, as well as tiny cabins in the countryside that have all the Hygge you could possibly desire. So, grab your crew and get on out there under the stars. Reporter: Alyssa Brown

New Year’s Eve is one of our favorite holidays here at the Venue Report. Why? Because it’s celebrated by nearly every culture around the world. In Iceland, people burn big community bonfires to get rid of the past year’s bad juju. In South Africa, people parade through the streets in costume. In Newfoundland, people share poetry over a gunfire salute.  And in Miami, well, in Miami people party like rage machines. We’ve covered all your New Year’s celebration possibilities, from California glamping to luxury hotel stays in the Maldives, from African safari adventures to late-night parties in Los Angeles. If you can't make it this year, save these for your dream gatherings and getaways for next year! So, here’s to a brilliant 2016, filled with more opportunities to travel, gather and explore!

Today, party animals, we’re talking Tents and Tipis. You may have noticed these beloved structures popping up everywhere. Even on a certain logo (ahem, ours). Permanent or temporary, while being both traditional and modern, they’re cool in the summer and warm in the winter, adding that wondrous “wow” factor to give us all the warm and fuzzies. They’re a bohemian touch to your bridal bash, a dose of glam to your birthday gathering and more then a smidge of special to any family, or dare we say corporate, soiree. Read on for our Top 25 Tents & Tipis, then go forth, gather and glamp.
