The five-day festival kit

Built from the things that actually got used across a season of them, and the things whose absence caused a problem. Roughly in the order you notice you need them.

So nothing walks off

Everything small leaves a pocket eventually. Tethering it to a belt loop is the cheapest insurance in the shop.

Heat and water

A tent at two in the afternoon and a packed room at two in the morning are the same problem. Carrying water without a free hand solves half of it.

Finding your tent

Phone batteries are gone by midnight on day two. Something with its own battery is not optional.

Carrying it

Hands-free or it ends up on the floor. A hip bag you can dance in beats a backpack you keep taking off.
