In this blog, we will talk about essential festival items and items that are unnecessary to bring! With these tips, you will definitely be safe, because good preparation is half the battle. This way, you can focus 100% on partying instead of worrying!
What is handy to bring to a festival?
First of all, you need something to carry your belongings in, such as a waist bag or a shoulder bag. With a waist bag, you have your most important items close to you at all times. And from the waist bag, we go straight to the indispensable item for a multi-day festival: dry shampoo. Dry shampoo is the ideal item to combat greasy hair and restore volume. With dry shampoo, your hair always looks good.
In second place is a mini deodorant. Of course, you want to prevent your neighbour from fainting when you’re dancing with your arms in the air. After a day of moving around, your underarms could use some freshening up. Such a mini deodorant also fits very conveniently in your waist bag, as the small packaging takes up little space.
Hair ties are essential festival items; you always lose them. Make sure you have a few on hand. Check out our hair ties for trendy items!
Protect yourself well from the sun with sunscreen, a hat/cap, and sunglasses. Sunglasses are also a very nice accessory. When the sun shines, it’s very pleasant to have sunglasses with you, even if the sun isn’t shining. No problem, because the vibe is always fun with sunglasses at a festival.
Last but not least, a power bank. Not only nice to be reachable at all times, but also handy if you want to take pictures whenever you feel like it. Bring your charger cable and make sure to fully charge the power bank beforehand.
Tips for good preparation
As you have already read, preparation is half the battle. Very important, therefore:
Tip 1: Make sure to apply your make-up well on your face so that it stays put all day. Take a bit more time than usual and use a setting spray.
Tip 2: Think about your outfit well in advance. No one wants to stress about their outfit on the morning of the festival.
Tip 3: Go to bed early the night before for a good night’s rest. So you won’t be very tired at the festival.
Tip 4: Apply sunscreen well before you leave the house. A day in the sun, you burn faster than you think! We also have handy small packages of sunscreen in our range, which can easily fit in your waist bag!
Tip 5: Pack your bag in advance, so you are sure to have all the festival items at hand and don’t forget anything.
Unnecessary to bring to a festival
Some festival items can be unnecessary to bring to a festival. They take up a lot of space. For example, a can of drink. It’s handy to always have a drink with you, but usually the security guards take it from you at the entrance. There is plenty of drink available at the festival itself. Also, a full bottle of perfume is unnecessary to bring, as it takes up a lot of space. A solution could be a tester or a mini bottle. You still have perfume with you but hardly waste any space. A large brush is also over the top to bring. The small Tangle Teezer is the perfect solution. Pack your bag with the real essentials and no clutter.
