Bright lights, hot days and kick-ass music blaring for you and your good friends - what's not to love about a music festival.

You're going to have a blast this summer, but make sure you pack properly and don't run out of any vaping essentials while you're away from home (and a power socket).

Before you travel, stock up on coils, fully charged batteries and some awesome festival e-liquids so you won't be left puffing dry or worse, smoking cigarettes.

Can you vape at festivals

We've done our research and it looks like most festivals will let you take vaporizers into the site. Some festivals ban vaping in arena tents and other indoor areas.

If you're not sure whether you can vape or not, ask "would I be able to smoke in here?"

If the answer is no, a good rule of thumb is to wait until you get to a more vape-friendly zone.

Your festival essentials

• Your choice of vaporizer - You might want to think about taking a smaller vape that's easy to pack and carry.
• E-liquid - Don't get caught short. Remember that everyone will want a puff of your vape once you're in there, so pack more juice than you think you'll need.
• Spare coil - Coils can last a long time, but you don't want yours to burn out right in the middle of the festival. Bring a spare just in case.
• Spare batteries - At a festival, you can go days without seeing a power outlet. Get some spare batteries, charge them up and make sure you carry them safely.

Brillipower 18650 Batteries

Music festivals can mean going without power, a shower and a comfy bed for up to five days. Do you really want to be left without your trusty vaporizer as well?

Charge these tried and tested Samsung 18650 batteries before you set off and just swap them in when your batteries start to drain. Trust us, you'll thank yourself on day two.

Chubby Gorilla Quad 18650 Battery Case

If you do take charged batteries with you, it's very important that you keep them in a carry case. Loose batteries can react with keys, loose change and other metal items in your pocket or in the bottom of your bag with devastating effects.

This carry case from Chubby Gorilla is cheap and reliable. Totally worth it in our opinion.

Smoking Vapor Mi-Pod

Mi-Pod from Smoking Vapor is an excellent refillable pod mod system. Vapers love it because it can be used for tight mouth-to-lung vaping and airy direct-to-lung hits too. It's ideal for a festival because it can be hung on a lanyard around your neck - very festival chic. The refillable Mi-Pod cartridges have a decent 2ml vape juice capacity, just make sure you keep some juice for refilling in your pocket.

One potential drawback to using a Mi-Pod at a festival is that it has an internal battery, so you can't swap it out when it drains. This means that you might have to take a portable charger with you to the fest.

vaping.com Menthol Tobacco

As well as all your hardware, you'll need some killer vape juices on your wild summer festival. One of the most popular e-liquids on vaping.com, this classic American tobacco blend has a refreshing exhale and a cool menthol spike to keep you feeling fresh on those long sunny days.

The 50/50 PG/VG vape juice is great in a variety of small-and-medium-sized devices.

Beard Vape Co. The One

If you are looking for something a little sweeter, this lemon and cream cake flavored vape juice is perfect for your extra special festival dates. With notes of sweet crumble and powdered sugar - the flavor genies at Beard Vape Co have got this e-liquid spot on.

The 30/70 PG/VG e-liquid comes in 100ml bottles, so you're not likely to run out over a long weekend.

Verdict Vapors Mega Watermelon Rush

Or if fruit is more your thing, this true watermelon flavor always gets top reviews all over the internet. The juice tastes just like watermelon - just without any of the seeds or the stickiness. There's a hint of strawberry as well, but it's not very noticeable behind the rush of watermelon.

The 30/70 PG/VG e-liquid comes in big 60ml bottles and is available in 0, 3 and 6 mg/ml nicotine strengths.
