Camping season is here (hurray!) and it’s time to go over your gear wish lists and stock up. Now through May 27, during the REI Anniversary Sale, you can save up to 30% on all things camping from brands you trust. Staples like tents and sleeping pads are marked down as well as camp lighting, cooking, and other accessories.
We combed through the sale for these standouts below. But take note, a lot of these are just examples of an entire category marked down by brands. For instance, we kick things off with a REI Half Dome tent to show that all REI Co-op tents and footprints are discounted.
This is a popular sale, so if something catches your eye, add it to your cart and watch the savings stack up.
REI Anniversary Sale Deals: Save up to 30%
The REI Anniversary sale runs through May 27, but if you see something you like at full price, that’s the perfect time to use the 20% member coupon code ANNIV24 at checkout to save on that item as well.
Not a member? You can sign up now and enjoy member savings right away. Additionally, REI Co-op Members can earn 5% in card rewards on REI purchases with the REI Co-op Mastercard. Terms apply.
The classic Half Dome gets a Superlight (3 pounds,15 ounces) build for backpacking but is still roomy and durable enough to use for car camping.
A 2+ floor plan makes room for two and their gear (or dog). Pre-bent pole construction gives the tent its height and more vertical side walls for ample shoulder room. Each side has its own large, D-shaped door and a dual-stake vestibule for storing muddy shoes or packs.
Other smart details include the color-coded setup to match poles with the floor plan, interior storage pockets and hang loops, and a rainfly with two closable vents. The tent seams are sealed, and the exterior is coated with the latest eco-friendly water repellant.
Save 30% on all REI Co-op tents, footprints, and accessories during the sale.

Hydro Flask 12 Oz. Camp Mug: $21 (25% Off)
You’re probably familiar with double-walled drinkware by now, but this is a reminder that camp mugs with lids and handles don’t need to be titanium or spackled ceramics to fit in. These Hydro Flask mugs are 18/8 pro-grade stainless steel so you taste your drink and not the container. The mugs have press-in lids to keep dust out and trap temps in.
Save 25% on all Hydro Flask drinkware and accessories during the sale.
MegaMat 10 Sleeping Pad: $262-375 (25% Off)
At REI.com, this pad has a 4.5 rating with more than 400 reviews, and our gear testers consistently name it the best double sleeping pad.
Why? One big reason is that construction keeps it level so two occupants aren’t slowly sinking into the middle. It also self-inflates most of the way, and only needs to be topped off with an including mini-pump sack. (Pro tip: throw this in your tent and let it start inflating as you secure your guylines/rainfly)
It’s also warm. The durable construction and thick, closed-cell foam keep the ground from sapping your body head for an 8.1 R-value. That’s plenty warm for winter camping with bags, but you can also throw a traditional double sheet over it and use it like any air mattress in warmer conditions.
Jetboil Genesis 2-Burner Stove: $225 (25% Off)
This two-burner stove uses propane to produce 10,000 BTUs, but more importantly, that power can also be throttled with a valve engineered for simmer control. That lets you keep things warm without scorching them, or you know, gives you a better chance of showing off your omelet skills.
The stove also has a level igniter and easy-clean drip trays. The fuel regulator and carrying bag are included. A Jetlink port allows you to add on additional cooking systems (hose and additional stove sold separately).
MPOWERD Luci Site Lights: $60 (25% Off)
This set of six lights is designed to be used as needed around camp. You can hang one on a guyline to make it easier to spot your tent (and the tripping hazard), place two by your tables, and another by your storage bins. You get the idea.
Each light weighs an ounce and comes with an optional notched stake for putting in the ground or hanging. They can light up 1,000 square feet and recharge in the case, which gets power via solar panel or USB-C. The lights have three modes ranging from 20 hours to 6 hours on high.
