With V Festival, Reading, Leeds, Bestival, Green Man and many more all still to come, there's still plenty of festival season left to enjoy. While we're all excited about catching the biggest names in music at some of the world's most infamous muddy fields, it's time to ensure that you've got those all-important festival essentials. Yes, we all know that you'll need a sturdy tent, thick roll-mat and warm sleeping bag, but screw that. Let's look at the things that you don't really need.
Ever been stranded at Glastonbury or Reading and thought 'what I need is a solar-powered bikini' or 'where the hell is my beer holster?' How about all in one tent-sleeping-bag-coat? An umbrella that also holds pints perhaps? Ever asked yourself 'WHY DOESN'T MY TENT HAVE KELIS' FACE ON IT?'
Well, you're in luck - as these things actually exist and can be bought on the wonderful internet. Here are the 15 most ridiculous festival gadgets.
