The Evolution of Toilets at Music Festivals

13 February 2020

Have you noticed the subtle change in music festivals over the past 10 years?

The age range for one. Yes event organisers have twigged that the baby boomers and 50s boppers who used to attend their events have matured somewhat, many are parents or even grand or great grandparents and whilst many still have the get up and go to dance into the early hours, to ensure survival they are having to entertain the next generation of up and coming revellers.

Yes the family friendly festival is the way forward to keep the events packed with happy campers and boost the profitability of events. It is also worth noting that there is a greater importance on making your event accessible to those with mobility issues and fully inclusive and accessible to all members of the community.

So as a festival organiser one has to consider all these points and investigate :

The choice of site - does it have water? access to power? access for the type of infrastructure you will require?
Access for the attendees, availability of Public Transport and parking offsite.
The type and spread of trailers and plastic toilet options across the site.
Showers and adequate drainage of grey water 
Mobility Accessible toilets (Fortis have Luxury and Standard options)
Baby change facilities (important for trainee rockers in nappies)
Large modern toilet trailers with huge holding tanks and clever design.
The right mix of Ladies and Gents (pre-empt family needs )
Where drink is flowing, large urinal units to save the hedges !
Lighting for that early hour's toilet dash
Extra access to water for festival goers who are camping or Glamping. 
Happily Fortis Hire staff are on hand to guide you through this cowpat dotted minefield of differing needs to ensure that you don’t end up with mud on your face.

Whatever your guests toilet hire needs, Fortis Luxury Toilet hire has the perfect tool for the job and the advice to ensure that your provision is spread conveniently over your site so that high usage areas are perfectly accommodated and to ensure that your event emits an air of organised competence.

As a festival organiser it is reassuring to know that the toilet company you are dealing with have good relationships with other suppliers and can guide you towards other suppliers in different areas of business such as generator suppliers, marquee suppliers, caterers and other specific companies who they have worked with at an operational  level and can recommend. 

With festival venues and temporary sites it is often very important for us to carry out a site visit. This visit allows us to see firsthand  the accessibility of the site, to review what water supplies are available, access to drainage (all our trailers are able to discharge directly to a main drain so long as they are conveniently sited to do so). This can avoid the expense of removal and disposal of toilet waste and needs to be taken into consideration when an event spans several days.
