It’s summertime and the festival season is here, which means Festival Camping whether you love it or hate it – Festival Camping is all part of the festival experience. Primarily though, you will need a suitable tent or tents for Festival Camping for example, the Sunflower Dome Tent or a Gelert Quick Pitch Tent are perfect. Next you’ll need some essential camping gadgets like the Travel John disposable urinal, an emergency phone charger and a decent wind up torch to help make your Festival Camping as comfortable as possible.
When buying a Festival Tent remember to choose a fairly lightweight tent as you will need to carry it from the train/coach station or festival car park unless you pick up a festival trolley as well. Don’t buy the cheapest tent on the market as it will probably leak and festival-goers leaving so called “cheap disposable tents” at events are starting to cause environmental problems – a good Festival Tent should last a good few festivals. Make sure your Festival Tent stands out, and is easily noticeable, you’ll be glad your Festival Tent can be easily distinguished among others when your trying to find your way back to it at the end of the evening. It’s always a good idea to mark your spot with a telescopic pole and windsock.
The outdoor specialists Easy Camp make a Pop Up Tent that simply pops up in a few seconds. A Pop Up Tent is a great convenient tent that even a novice can handle. Unlike pitching a traditional tent where tent poles need to be threaded through pole sleeves a Pop Up Tent self pitches after being released from it’s carry bag. A Pop Up Tent is such that it can even be set up and moved to wherever you like. Therefore, if you want to move your tent just a few feet away from where you set it up, you do not need to disassemble and re-assemble it.
It’s all in the name, a Quick Pitch Tent works on the same principle as the pop up tent – simply release it from it’s carry bag and it self pitches itself. A Quick Pitch Tent is ideal in wet conditions as it becomes an instant shelter from the rain. As soon as you reach your camping spot, you can set up your tent in seconds. Today, most festival goers opt for a Quick Pitch Tent because they are more interested in enjoying the festival as opposed to spending an hour setting up/taking down their tents. A Gelert Quick Pitch Tent is an excellent choice as there are so many options, the SS (single skin) range of tents are very lightweight, the DS (double skin) tents have good ventilation and stability and the Gelert Twister tents are perfect for the larger party. All Gelert tents come in a variety of colours and patterns.
Modern Camping Gadgets can make your summer music festival more comfortable for instance with the aid of a TravelJohn you can avoid night time trips to the festival potaloos.

Obviously, mobile phones are essential if you are meeting or loose your friends in the crowd, so emergency mobile phone chargers are among the essential Camping Gadgets. For women the Whiz Freedom is definitely the one of the favourite festival Camping Gadgets as it enables you to wee standing up saving you the trouble of hovering above a scummy festival toilet.
