Camping at a festival?


Question Posted Tuesday June 2 2009, 11:31 am

So, in a month I'm going to be camping at a festival (In case you're wondering, the festival I'm attending is this;
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
) , and if any of you have camped at one, I have some questions;

1* What are the best foods to take with you(For four nights, four mornings) that you don't need to cook.
Anything suitable for breakfast and dinner :)

2* Foods that are easy to cook using camping gas? (If I happen to take it, I'm still debating over this) Bear in mind I live in Europe, so if you say a particular brand of something, I may not find it here. (I hope that made sense...)

3* Drinks? Do you think energy drinks are good if I'll be up until like 2-3am each night...or morning?

4* Basic supplies (besides the obvious, tent, clothes and sleeping bag)

5* Any tricks to keep beer cold without a cooler?

6* Any other tips you may have :)
-Oh, and is there a secret to keeping bugs/mosquitoes out of the tent? I still fail to keep my tent mosquito free...

I apologize for the length...
And please don't "guess" if you have no experience in this.

:) Thanks!

Some foolproof foods to take camping are:

-things to make peanut butter sandwiches with
-any kind of chip and pretzel
-cereal
-granola bars, dried fruit, fresh fruit, trail mix
-if taking a cooler you could pack premade meat and cheese sandwiches, and that would also keep your beverages cool.

Since you aren't planning to cook anything it's difficult to make suggestions. When i go camping I take a mini camp stove to make things like grilled cheese, sausage, and mac and cheese on. The only difficulty with pastas and such is that you have to take milk and butter and such.

Energy drinks are a good idea if you're planning on being up late a lot. Make sure to take lots of water too because it will be hot.

Basic supplies: You should always take toilet paper no matter what the bathroom situation is. Bug spray and suntan lotion are definites, and always take an few more sets of clothes than you think you will need because you just never know what you might get involved in. A swimsuit is a good idea and a pair of shoes you can trash or get dirty in. A flashlight and/or lantern for seeing in the dark and finding your way around. Booksif you like to rea sine you might get bored without being able to use your cellphone or music player once the batte dies. A small fold away table and chairs are good ideas also so you have a place to sit and eat. Any piece of string you can tie up as a clothesline is a good idea too for clothing that gets wet.

Hope some of this helped, if you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask :)
