What’s the most annoying thing about going to festivals?
For me the answer to this is easy – PACKING!
The Festival Kidz team have put our heads together to bring you our top packing tips, as well as a complete packing list, for you to print out and adapt for your own family.
Here are our Top 5 Packing Tips!
- Divide your packing into labelled boxes
/bags that you can easily store – every time you come back from a festival you can then wash everything and pack it back into the boxes ready for the next one. - Empty your First Aid Kit
of medicines when you come home, as medicines will expire if stored too long. Keep a list of required medicines inside the kit so you can easily top it up before you leave. - Work out how many meals you are going to cook, and how many you will buy at the festival. That way you can take the exact amount of food for the weekend so you’re not carrying anything back home again.
- For larger families a picnic backpack
is a great way to make sure you keep all your plates, cups and cutlery together. You can easily make your own one using an old rucksack and some nice bamboo picnic items. - And finally… make sure you take a treat such as wine and cheese for the adults, and cake for the children. It’ll taste so much better when eaten outdoors!
