The tickets are secured, the headliners are set and you and your mates are absolutely fizzing. Now its time to figure out what you take. With the silly season just around the corner, we're here to make sure you pack what you need to get the most out of your summer festies.

2023/24 Festival Survival Kit:

A tent that's easier to set up than your dating profile.
Earplugs – for when you are trying to sleep but the breathers are still partying.

Groovy Garb:

Sunglasses - to hide your post-party eyes.
A hat - for when your hair decides it's not a fan of festivals.

Nomad Nosh:
Reusable water bottle – because staying hydrated is cooler than a headliner.
Toiletry bag -there is nothing worse than standing in the mosh next to a sweaty smelly person.
Sunscreen - even though New Zealand is known to not pull through with good weather during the New Year period you can still get burnt in overcast weather.

Electrifying Essentials:
Portable phone charger – because how else will you document the epicness?
Portable fan – for those moments when you're hot, bothered, and surrounded by a human sea.

Dance-Proof Footwear:
Comfy kicks that can handle both a mosh pit and a dance-off.
Spare socks – because sweaty feet are a party foul.
Flip-flops for the inevitable "I-can't-do-this-anymore" moments.

Wilderness Wardrobe:
Poncho – because fashion should never bow to the weather.
Extra layers – because the temperature drops like your fav drum and base act.
Fanny pack – keeping your essentials close while looking like a '90s throwback.

Survivalist Spirit:
Positive vibes – leave the drama at the entrance.
Flexibility – because the schedule is more like a loose suggestion.
A sense of humor – for when the mud is deeper than your regret for not bringing proper footwear.
