Over the next few months, there are a large number of music festivals occurring and for the less experienced festival go-er, you’ll need to know exactly what to bring. With some of the larger festivals such as Glastonbury and T in the Park spanning over multiple days, you need to know the essentials, to ensure that your festival experience is an enjoyable one!

Rain Jacket

With the British weather being dependably inconsistent, a waterproof coat is essential, and luckily, here at Outdoor Look we stock a massive range of waterproof coats. With one of these, you are perfectly prepared to ensure that any bad weather doesn’t ruin your experience. We also have some packable coats which are very handy when you’re living with a limited amount of space. 

Sleeping Bag

When you’re sleeping outdoors for multiple nights, a sleeping bag is essential to ensure that those few precious hours of sleep per night are as comfortable as they possibly can be. We have three different styles of Sprayway sleeping bags, the: lightweight Challenger 250 as well as the Challenger 350 and 450. Each of these have a pillow tuck, polycotton inner and additionally, double layer construction.

Rucksack

Whenever you’re going camping for multiple days at a time, you’re going to need to bring a rucksack capable of carrying as many of the essentials as possible. For example, the Regatta Blackfell 45 Litre Hydration Rucksack with its extendable upper section which allows for additional literage storage, should provide ample space for your needed belongings.

Flask

Although these festivals occur in the summer time, we all know only too well that that has no bearing on the weather. Although warm, sunny days are hoped for, a cold summer afternoon is certainly possible. With our range of Stanley flasks, we can help to keep your warm drinks exactly as you want them – a welcome relief on a chilly day!

Wellies

Whilst camping in a field, there’s one thing that you can almost be certain of coming across – and that’s mud. Wellington Boots offer you the chance to keep your feet both dry, mud-free and with our range: looking good.

Don’t forget to also bring a tent and camping chairs, so that you have somewhere to sit back and relax during a short pause away from the mayhem of the music!

All of our festival essentials are available on our website and in our Macclesfield outlet store at a great price. We also offer free delivery for purchases over the price of £50 and free exchanges. We hope to see you soon – happy camping!
