Is a Good Tent Really That Important?
With festival season here, choosing the right tent is crucial. You’ll see various tents advertised, but not all are reliable. Many cheap “festival tents” are poorly made and may not last the weekend, collapsing or ripping easily.
What to Look For in a Good Quality Tent?
Durability: A good tent will withstand the elements and keep you sheltered! ⛺
Waterproofing: Look for a tent with a high HH rating (minimum 2000) to ensure it can handle rain. ⛆ Tents should be double lined to stop condensation build up so that it wont feel like it’s raining on the inside.
Stability: A sturdy tent won’t fall over, providing a secure home for the weekend. 🏕️
Top Tent Tips:
Save Money: Borrow a tent from someone you know, OR hire one out for the weekend. 💸
Research: Read online reviews and check festival forums for recommendations. 📰
Learn Setup: Practice setting up and taking down your tent before the event. Watch tutorials if needed. 🏕️
Wind Direction: Position your tent with doors facing away from the wind to prevent damage and leaks. 🍃
