What should I pack for a music festival?

Question

I'm going to the oxegen music festival in Ireland for four days! any words of advice on what to pack? I can only fill a rucksack!!

Answer 1

your gona need more than a rucksack! i was there last year....you will need

a GOOD waterproof tent

sleeping bag, blow up beds(nessicary)

fold out chair - for sitting in the campsite

Welly boots-the muck will pull your trainers off and you will end up in your socks, so you NEED them!

several changes of clothes- it WILL rain

loads of socks-believe me those wellys get cold and wet

baby wipes

food

A torch for finding your tent late at night

money

camera

drink, alcohol - you are allowed bring it into the campsite!

raincoat

clothes incase the sun shines( it did last year!!) + suncream!

toilet paper!!!

get there early so you get a good camping spot - keep away from areas people walk near or through,because those places will get really mucky and your tent will sink ! the middle of the campsite is best!

Answer 2

Toilet Roll!!!!!!

Sun Cream, baby wipes (no showers)

Money!!! So expensive to buy food and drink there.

Tent or you can rent one there.

Sleeping bag, or again you can rent one there.

Bottles of Water and leave them in the camp (they make you remove the caps inside).

Mouth wash, need I explain?

And from what I know its on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 3 days, are you staying the Thursday night before or something?

Might see you there, Im working the bar (actually getting paid to be there...sweet!)

Answer 3

Toilet Roll (loads of tissues, even if you're just going for the day)

Wet wipes/hand wipes

Sun Block

Water/empty bottle to fill with water

Hat

Loads of money

Return fares home (keep separate & guard any tickets with your life)

Poncho & wellies (with long socks or wellie socks) just in case

Clothes you don't mind getting covered in mud, beer, various unidentified liquids and/or solids.  Take a spare set to keep clean for the journey home.  

Torch for finding your way around at night

This link leads to a similar question which was asked about the Reading Music festival but the same rule still applies, the best answer chosen by the questioner was very good:

edit: when you say rucksack, do you mean that iddy-biddy thing kids use to cart their school books about or a proper rucksack (backpack) with plenty of room?  I agree with 40 weeks, if you're a day tripper a rucksack is fine, if you're going camping you need a bigger bag
