Festival Packing 101:
3 Essentials You’ll Actually Use

Festival season is officially here, which means it’s time to pack strategically. Whether you’re dancing in the desert or hopping between city stages, you don’t want to be the person stuck hauling around a massive backpack—or worse, sitting on damp grass with nowhere to put your overpriced acai bowl.

So, here are three essentials you’ll actually use:

1. Quick-Dry Towel

Not all towels are created equal. This one is lightweight, super absorbent, and dries fast—aka perfect for post-mist-tent cooldowns, unexpected spills, or wiping off the dust after a long day. Plus, it rolls up small, so it won’t take up valuable space in your bag.

2. Quick-Dry Picnic Blanket

Laying in the sun between sets? Great. Sitting directly on dirt, sand, or spilled drinks? Less great. A packable blanket is lightweight, easy to carry, and folds into a tiny bag when you don’t need it. On the top corner, there is hidden stash pocket—so your keys and personal belongings stay secure while you dance. Bonus: it’s durable and fully washable—so no stress if it gets stepped on, spilled on, or caught in the festival chaos.

3. Packable Tote Bag

Tiny when you don’t need it, spacious when you do. Perfect for snacks, layers, and all the merch you swore you wouldn’t buy.

Festivals are all about good music, questionable dance moves, and packing light but smart.

Bring these essentials, thank us later, and most importantly—have fun.
