It can be easy to get caught up in the excitement of going camping without thinking about what to pack, especially if an event is around the corner.

One dilemma it is always difficult to resolve is how much money to take to a festival.


How much do people spend at festivals?

A lot of people going to a festival wonder 'how much money do you need for a festival?'

According to a recent survey, the average UK festival-goer spends £354.54.

Food is among the largest expense because there are usually so many different food outlets present.

How much money should I take to a festival?

So, to the question 'how much money should I take to a festival?'

While there is no set amount you are advised to take, you should bring enough money to last the entire camping trip. A good idea is to make a list of everything you plan to spend money, like merchandise for your favourite band.

It is worth noting that if you want to spend less money, you should pack as cleverly as you can so that you don't have to buy as much on site.

Should I bring cash to a festival?

As there are many opportunities to buy things at festivals, it is advisable to bring at least some cash.

Having cash is useful for emergency circumstances, so provides peace of mind in that respect. However, if you are considering bringing cash to a camping festival, you should avoid having it on display anywhere.
