Music festival camping has once again become a popular summertime activity for many young concert goers, so the 'KarTent' is designed to make camping out easier. A cardboard tent specifically designed for short-term usage, the 'KarTent' is specially designed to be rain-resistant for up to three days; ideal for most music festivals.
At music festivals where camping is a part of the experience, many festival goers will ditch their tent after the festival has finished. Jan Portheine and Wout Kommer recognized this terrible waste and decided to create the 'KarTent.'
The 'KarTent' provides ample space for two people and all their supplies, but that's just the beginning. The 'KarTent' also provides festival camping participants with a cooler dwelling thanks to the dark interior space, which is welcome news to those heading to Coachella or Bonnaroo.
