Festival Pop Up Gazebos

You really can’t beat sitting in front of a fire, under pop up gazebos, with a large group of friends either in the pouring rain or beautiful bright sunshine. Here are some essential points for choosing the right pop up gazebo for your festival:

1) Are You Allowed? Some festivals may well ban pop up gazebos due to the space restrictions so check first before you buy one. If they are allowed, get to the festival early to guarantee the space you’ll need to put it up.

2) Don’t go spending a fortune. You want a cheap light one, preferably one with sides for privacy or to protect you from driving rain. Chances are it may well not come back in one piece!

3) Go For A Steel Frame. Go for one with a power-coated steel frame, which are strong and very light. Make sure it says ‘easy to put up’ on the box!

4) Carry Case. Make sure it comes in its own carry case as many pop up gazebos don’t.

5) Side Panels? A lot of pop up gazebos don’t come with side panels although they may be pictured with them. Check the small print on the advert just to make sure.

6) Leg Weights. I would absolutely definitely take some leg weights with you. It might be the last thing you’d want to take but so many pop up gazebos are lightweight to allow easy transportation, that one gust and it’ll be gone; the leg weights are small and a must.

7) Cold? If you really want to be extravagant, buy a battery-powered heater for inside your gazebo.

Lighting. You can also get battery-powered fairy lights too just to give an extra bit of atmosphere!

9) Buy today! Organize yourself as soon as you know you’re going to a festival. The nearer the festival date, the more pop up gazebos are bought up leaving only the rubbish ones on the shelves.

10) Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
