Nothing beats the feeling of wearing a new festival outfit, applying bold makeup all while blasting your favourite pre-party playlist. Ah, the beauty of festival season. But before you dash out the door, don’t forget to pack some trendy (and practical!) finishing touches to see you through the long days. To save you the last-minute scramble, we’ve rounded up the top five accessories you need to stand out in the crowds.
Selected items below can be shopped online via our Click & Collect service. Use our handy C&C store list to find your local Primark store.
Festival day and weekend bags
Whether you’ve secured tickets to a day festival or are braving the full weekend camp-out, a secure bag is key for keeping your belongings safe. For those with tents, be sure not to underestimate the long walk from the car park to your pitch. Consider a backpack, trolley crate or one of our large duffle bags on wheels to make the trip easier. In the crowds, crossbody straps are essential for hands-free dancing.
Our Packable Crossbody Bag is the perfect festival companion. It’s lightweight, features a zip fastening and features its own tote bag for easy storage. Priced at just £6, it’s a no-brainer. Add it to your Click & Collect basket to grab yours in time for the big day!
Cowboy hats
When it comes to festival accessories, cowboy hats are a firm favourite. With the western trend currently taking over our wardrobes, these hats have risen beyond country concert outfits and become a fun staple for any occasion. Delivering a modern twist on the classic American staple, our denim and embellished hats guarantee a stand-out photo moment. Or keep the look timeless with the straw and buckle options. Whichever style you choose, team with cowboy boots for a headline-worthy look.
Statement necklaces
You can always depend on necklaces to elevate your outfit and nothing brings main-stage energy more than a layered chain moment. Try mixing boho-inspired pieces with eye-catching pendants. We love the luxe, high-quality designs from The Edit, and you can never go wrong with wearing your initials. Note: the more layers, the better.
Body chains and belts
Between the western trend and the Y2K revival, waist accessories are dominating the fashion scene. Cowboy belts are currently taking the top spot, with studded designs being paired with denim shorts or draped effortlessly over a boho maxi skirt. Prefer something more glam? Go for a body chain instead. The new Primark Presents Rita Ora SS25 collection includes some seriously chic buckle and beaded pieces. Co-ordinate with chunky rings and charm bracelets for a full festival-ready finish.
Retro sunglasses
We’re manifesting sun-soaked setlists, so sunglasses are non-negotiable. Add a playful touch to your look with our butterfly embellished frames or keep it classic with tortoiseshell oval glasses. Either way, you’ll bring instant edge to any look.
