Use A Flag To Find Your Campsite
FilmMagic/FilmMagic for Bonnaroo Arts And Music FestivalIf you’re camping at a festival, one of the most daunting tasks can be finding your camping spot after a long day in the festival grounds. While you may think you can find it during the day, you might end up completely lost once the sun goes down. Some festival campgrounds are massive, and getting lost is easier than you think.
To prevent this from happening, it’s crucial to have a flag or some sort of identifiable object that stands out where your campsite is. It’s also a bonus if it lights up, so that you can see it in the dark. Nobody wants to be wandering the campgrounds looking for their tent, trust me.
