Another year, another Festival International de Louisiane. Last year we released our Field Guide to the Indigenous Peoples of Festival international and now it’s time for round two!
Festivaling is an art form. It takes preparation, organization, determination and many other -ations. Luckily for you, the best festival minds this side of the Mississippi have compiled a list of everything you need to festival in comfort and – more importantly – style.
This is the Festival International Survival Pack, and we’re giving them away.
Each pack comes equipped with Festival staples like sunglasses, blankets, rain slickers, hats and antacid for the delicious foods you’ll consume. The packs that will be given away are themed to one of characters from the BBRFest Field Guide, and include specialty items tailored to each.
