GIGSAK HQ Blog

"Ever been cold on a picnic (I think we know the answer) or wet at a festival (there's an alternative)? Then you need to get yourself a GIGSAK! This waterproof blanket with a fleece top opens up like a giant bag, so you can either decide to sit on it, put your legs in it or shelter inside it. You'll be the envy of Glastonbury, no, really."

"You know that feeling — just as the festival is rocking, a cloud heaves into view to put a damper on things. No worries: just lift up the top layer of your GIGSAK and get inside. With a cosy fleece blanket on one side and a thick waterproof backing on the other, it’ll keep two music fans snug and dry until the end of the show."

"This waterproof blanket doubles up as a cosy shelter, perfect for avoiding the rain and mud at festivals this year. Turn it inside out to sit inside the GIGSAK and be able to watch your favourite bands whatever the weather."

"From camping and picnics in the park to summer festivals, the GIGSAK is a versatile picnic rug that’s great quality, and doubles up as a rain shelter. Perfect for everything that the Great British summertime can throw at you!"

"GIGSAK has an opening for children to climb in if they get cold or to use as protection when the heavens unexpectedly open and it pours with rain. This actually happened to us when we visited Kingston Lacy and we had to hilariously dive under it to keep us and the kids dry!"

"GIGSAK is simple to turn into a shelter – simply use the inside corner handles to turn it inside out. It’s big enough for 2 or 3 people to use in this way and convert it back to a picnic blanket when it stops raining. We have used our GIGSAK a few times now and it is fabulous."
