Post Image

Music festivals have become a summer tradition in many parts of the world. One of the great attractions is to go camping at the festival campsite with your friends or people close to you. If you are going to sleep at the festival campsite and have never been to one, you will need some preparation. The festival campsite is one of the most varied, as you will see groups with family tents, others with instant tents or igloos. Follow this guide to festival camping and just enjoy this wonderful event. You’re going camping at a festival, but you don’t know what to take with you? Of course, you want to spend these days as relaxed as possible. So use a checklist to make sure you don’t forget anything. Probably not all the points apply to you, but at least you won’t forget anything.

  • Don’t Spend a Fortune on a Tent

After a festival that lasts several days, many people leave their tents. This is because for various reasons, either the tent is (partially) broken, or it is super dirty.  You don’t need a very expensive tent to enjoy the festival. You just need a good rest to be fit the next day. Look for a tent that is easy to set up and doesn’t waste too much time that you can use to enjoy the festival. A light-colored tent attracts less heat during the day but gets dirty more quickly.

  • Find a Spot in the Shadow

It is very comforting to wake up in your tent without sweat after having enjoyed a great day of music.   A correct place with shade would be between trees, but what if there is no vegetation on the horizon? Then take a canvas with you with its respective bars to be able to hold it. It will give you space with shade, so you don’t have to roast in the heat, especially during summer festivals. A great tip is to try to get to the campsite as early as possible so that you can choose the best spot.

  • Make Sure You Get a Good Night’s Rest

What’s your favorite artist coming to perform on the last day? Then you don’t want to miss that performance because you feel awful. That’s why a good night’s rest should be mandatory. Something that helps enormously to lengthen your rest, to isolate you from the high volume of music and noise both at night and very early in the morning, is to bring your earplugs. For them, you can bring a sleep mask.

  • Don’t Run out of Battery on Your Mobile Phone

After several days of the festival, if you don’t have anywhere to charge your phone’s battery. It is best to bring a portable charger, previously recharged at home, in which you can fully recharge your phone battery approximately three times. Try to save your battery, so you don’t have to charge it as often. To do this, turn off the Wifi mode, the Bluetooth, and even activate the airplane mode. Referring to those who enjoy playing online casino games in their free time, don’t do it when being on a camp festival. You will play your favorites when you got back home, because bodognodeposit.com will always be here for you, offering you the best bonus codes and free bets promotions. It will also save up a lot of your phone battery. Taking pictures also consumes a lot of battery power so that you can bring your camera.

  • Take a Lock With You

Bring a padlock to close your tent and ensure the safety of your belongings. With this, you will naturally not be able to stop expert thieves but to keep drunk visitors away from your tent. Be careful not to bring valuables to a festival such as tablets, laptops, etc. and leave them at home.

  • Pay Attention to the Weather Forecast

Are the weather forecasts favorable, and you’re going to be under the sun practically all day? Then bring some sunglasses, a cap, and drink lots of water to avoid heatstroke and sunstroke. Do you think it might rain? Then don’t take any chances and bring a waterproof poncho to avoid getting soaked.

Also recommended is the unforgettable view of 500m height, which you can enjoy from Fonyód mountain.

  • A Historical Castle

Sümeg is a small town about 25 kilometres north of Lake Balaton. It is especially famous for its castle of the same name, which stands on a conical hill above the town. Sümeg Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1301. However, at that time it was still quite small and consisted only of a tower as well as the cistern and some small adjoining rooms. Until the 16th century the castle was gradually extended and developed and played an important role during the Turkish war. Until 1726 it was besieged, conquered and set on fire several times. Only after 1989 was Sümeg Castle awakened from its Sleeping Beauty slumber and restored for tourist purposes. Today, the famous Sümeg Knights’ Games are held there several times a year and have become an institution in the region. As a visitor, you can also take part in many other programs around the castle, for example, medieval dinners are regularly organized.

  • The Cave Lake

The small town of Tapolca, surrounded by a landscape worth seeing, is situated about 10 kilometres north of Lake Balaton. In the past, many mineral resources were discovered and mined in the area, later Tapolca developed into a well-known health resort in Hungary.  The caves of Tapolca made a significant contribution to the rise of the town to a thermal spa. Visitors can explore them on foot for only a few metres, but the guided boat tours through the cave are really interesting. The underground part of the cave extends hundreds of metres under the city. The cave itself was only discovered at the beginning of the 20th century. It was discovered that respiratory diseases can be treated very well because of the particularly good air. A short time later, the spa clinic was established above the cave pond, specialising in the treatment of asthma and similar diseases.
