This week sees the release of new free app, Festival Ready, which is this year's festival smartphone essential and is designed to keep friends together at festivals - and make sure no one ever needs to get lost in a campsite ever again.
The app lets festival goers mark on a map where they have pitched their tent, lets you see where your mates are around the festival - and best of all, guide you straight to them with augmented reality. The app also includes a packing checklist to make sure you're not caught short, weather updates, a torch, 'sound flare rave alarm and LED messaging. A 21st century alternative to a swiss army knife - exactly as the manufacturer intended.
To celebrate the launch of the new app, we've teamed up with Festival Ready to give away a Victorinox festival kit - which includes a tent, rucksack and Victorinox Swiss Army Knife.
All you need to do to win is get on Twitter and tell us about your best or worst experience of being lost at a festival, starting your tweet #festivalready @gigwise
For example, this would be ours: #festivalready @gigwise Lost friends Friday & Saturday at Secret Garden 2010 - so made a new ones. All forgotten by the next day however :(
We'll pick our favourites at the end of the week. Get tweeting!
