Festival Essentials Everybody Needs ;)

Whether you’re camping, glamping (do people still do that?), or staying in an actual house, here’s what to drag along to all your music festivals this summer:

1. A SOLID RAINCOAT
   An obvious choice, because most Scandinavian festivals include at least a little bit of rain. Or a lot of rain. Our favorite coat is the classic Stutterheim Stockholm, which not only keeps you dry but thanks to its bonded cotton, keeps you warm at night as well. These coats last for years, so they’re an excellent investment for festival seasons (and, you know, life) to come.

2. OUTDOOR SPEAKERS
   If you’re camping or plan to spend any time lounging during your festival of choice, a portable outdoor speaker is wonderful. Enjoy (more) music as you crack open a few beers and hang with friends.

3. SUNSCREEN
   Not to be your mom, but DON’T FORGET YOUR SUNSCREEN! Haha :P

4. PORTABLE CHARGER
   Well this one seems obvious. If you want to keep instagramming your festival experience, or need to stay in touch with your kids’ babysitter, or just love taking selfies in front of port-a-potties, you’ll need your phone to stay charged.

5. FOLDING CHAIR
   You can't stay on your feet all day, so make sure to invest in a camping chair, they fold into nothing and will save you sitting on the muddy floor all weekend.

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST: SUNGLASSES 8-]
