The festival season is underway and with over 100 festivals happening across the UK this summer, we want to ensure your festival experience is the best ever! Our Festival Essentials guide brings together our best value products so you don’t need to spend hours walking around shops or trawling the internet or worrying about whether you’ve bought the right gear at the best price - we’ve got everything you need right here! Although the festivals take place during the great British Summer we all know the unpredictability of our weather (See Glastonbury 2008) and that’s why on page 10 you will find Men’s & Women’s waterproofs and Wellington Boots. We’ve also got some great accessories. From protecting your mobile phone (page 6) to keeping your hands clean (page 2), shading your eyes (page 2) to blocking out the noise with ear plugs (page 1) these items are guaranteed to make your festival experience that little bit more comfortable and a whole lot more memorable!
