Camping Festival Essentials for a Stress-Free Weekend

I'm going to my first camping festival in three years. I have a long list of things to pack, including a tent, sleeping bag, and clothes.

The key to a good camping festival is to make life easy from the start. This means using clever storage and practical gadgets to save time and space.

In a couple of weeks, I'll be going to the Wild Gardens Festival. I'm getting everything ready, including things I already have and things I want to buy.

Carrying a heavy bag with clothes, snacks, and drinks is not ideal. A wheeled duffel bag is a great solution for this problem.

The Ayacucho Vaunu Wheeled Duffle Bag is perfect for camping. It has a 40-litre capacity and a telescopic pull handle, making it easy to move around.

For people with a lot of gear, a pull trolley is a good option. The Pro Action Foldable Trolley has a 70L capacity and side pockets for water bottles.

An air bed can make camping more comfortable, but it's bulky and hard to inflate. A self-inflating mat is a better choice.

I've used a self-inflating mat before, and it's much more comfortable than sleeping on the ground. It's easy to use and doesn't require a pump.

The self-inflating mat from Mountain Warehouse is on sale and packs away neatly. It also has a water-repellent finish for protection.

A reliable rain jacket is necessary for a camping festival. The Columbia Skien Valley Hooded Light Jacket is a good choice.

The Columbia jacket is not only waterproof but also has insect shield to repel mosquitoes. It has secure pockets and breathable vents.

The jacket is made from recycled content, making it eco-friendly. It's a good layer to bring to any festival.

A sleeping bag is essential for camping. This time, I'm using a double sleeping bag with my boyfriend.

The Basecamp 200 Double Sleeping Bag is ideal for couples. It has insulating hollow fibre to keep us warm and is currently 50% off.

The double sleeping bag packs down into a single carry bag, making it practical for festivals and road trips. It's a great time to buy one.

Regular bath towels are not suitable for camping festivals. They take up too much space and don't dry well.

Decathlon's Microfibre Swimming Towel is a better option. It's compact, dries quickly, and has a double-sided design.

The microfibre towel dries fast and can be used again soon. There's also a multi-buy offer, so shoppers can save money.

Staying hydrated is crucial at a festival. Having a water carrier at the campsite is very helpful.

Regatta's leak-proof carrier has a 20-litre capacity and folds flat when empty. It has an ergonomic carry handle for easy storage.
