Festival Prep: How to Avoid Those Gross Portaloo Queues (and Stay Comfortable All Weekend)

💩 The Truth About Festival Toilets

• Long queues—especially in the morning and before headliners
• Often dirty by day two (or hour two…)
• No toilet paper, no sanitizer, no dignity

That’s why more seasoned campers are skipping the public toilets altogether—and bringing their own.

🚽 Enter Popaloo: The Ultimate Festival Toilet Hack

The Popaloo is a dry-powder portable toilet that’s compact, hygienic, and chemical-free. It folds down into a small carry case, and sets up in under 30 seconds.

Popaloo uses biodegradable bags and a non-toxic gelling powder to instantly neutralize waste and smells—no water or chemicals required.

Perfect for Festivals Because:

• Fits in your tent or privacy shelter
• No smell, no mess, no awkward treks across a muddy field
• 100% discreet and hygienic
• Festival-friendly: no chemicals = no campsite bans

🎒 Festival Essentials Checklist (Popaloo Edition)

• Popaloo + carry case
• Gelling powder refills
• Biodegradable toilet bags
• Pop-up toilet tent or shower shelter
• Hand sanitiser and biodegradable wipes

Bonus tip: set up your Popaloo station in a corner of your tent or just outside in a privacy tent. You’ll never look back (or queue again).

🌍 Festival-Approved & Eco-Friendly

More festivals are banning traditional chemical toilets due to their environmental impact. Popaloo is a clean, green alternative that meets “leave no trace” standards.

💡 Final Thoughts

Don’t let a dodgy loo ruin your weekend. A Popaloo keeps you fresh, private, and free from the dreaded toilet queue. Whether you’re a Glastonbury regular or hitting your first local fest, it’s the one bit of gear you’ll wish you packed sooner.
