6 Festival Accessories You Actually Need This Summer (All Under £9)

Festival season in the UK runs hard from May to September — and the difference between a good festival outfit and a great one is always in the accessories. Here are the pieces our customers come back for every summer, all small enough to fit in a day bag and tough enough to survive a weekend in a field.

1. A Hat That Does Double Duty

Sun protection and style in one. The rainbow cowboy hat is the undisputed festival classic — wide brim for sunny afternoons, chin cord so it survives the front row. For something nobody else in the campsite will have, the umbrella hat handles both blazing sun and a surprise downpour while keeping your hands free for your drink.

2. Statement Sunglasses (Bring Two Pairs)

Festival rule: sunglasses get lost, sat on, or borrowed and never returned. At £3.49–£3.99 a pair, stock up. Shutter shades photograph brilliantly, pixel frames are a guaranteed conversation starter, and heart glasses are a festival staple for a reason.

3. Metallic Leggings: The Festival Uniform

Comfortable enough to dance in for twelve hours, eye-catching enough for every photo. Gold metallic leggings pair with literally anything; hot pink is for those who want to be found easily in a crowd. Both are one-size stretch fits with elasticated waists.

4. Layers of Colour

The 4-piece hula lei set is the cheapest way to colour-bomb an outfit — necklace, headband and wristbands in one pack. Add rainbow hold-up stockings or rainbow braces and you're festival-ready from any angle.

5. Glow After Dark

When the headliners come on, the Light Up Angel Halo earns its place in your bag — fluffy rainbow marabou with built-in LEDs. It's also remarkably useful for friends trying to find you in a night-time crowd.

6. The Group Photo Kit

Camping with a crew? The 12-pack of photo booth props and a sheet of temporary tattoos cost less than a festival burger and generate the best pictures of the weekend.
