Lunchbox: The Perfect Bag for Event and Festival Goers
Festival season has started and with Superbowl LIII just days away there will be a lot of traffic all around Downtown Atlanta. I have attended at least 5 festivals last year and this year at least 8 are on my list, but with crime potentially being a part of any event if you are carrying anything you want to feel confident that your belongings are protected. Here comes Lunchbox to help fulfill that need as well as being the ultimate festival hydration pack.
More than half of all Americans will attend at least one music festival in 2018. Current statistics point to as high as 1 in every 7 festival attendees getting pickpocketed. In 2017, one man stole 100 phones in just one day at Coachella Valley Music Festival. When you factor in the number of hospitalizations due to overheating and dehydration the issues facing festivals are compounded even further.
Lunchbox: The Perfect Bag for Event and Festival Goers
“Music festivals changed my life, but I realized early on that they too, inherently, needed to be changed,” said Tom Worcester, CEO and founder of Lunchbox. “For me, festivals are home. I actually lost 70% of my hearing at four years old – electronic bass is the only music I can really hear, and it created an environment where I felt most comfortable. We built Lunchbox to address real problems faced by the festival community. It’s about giving back to a community that’s given so much to me.”
Lunchbox features include:
- Heavy-duty ballistic nylon, strengthening areas most commonly cut by pickpockets
- Patented, insulated refill system, cutting pack refill time to under 30 seconds.
- Dimensions that meet the restrictions of the top 50 festivals in the United States
- Zip-on skin designs to change it up from festival to festival
- Compatible EL wire to light up at your favorite stage
- Easy-to-access strap pocket for meds, keys, etc.
- Charging compatibility
- Side wall pockets
- Dedicated sunglasses pockets
This bag has proven to be needed and of value, just with the amount of money raised on their Kickstarter project, $42K which was $17K over their $25K goal. Now how often does that happen. I am looking forward to coming back and sharing my personal experiences with the Lunchbox and I am sure that it will not disappoint.
I see more festivals in my future, how about you?Â
