Spring is finally here in New Orleans, and that means it’s festival season! From the craziness of Mardi Gras to Gumbo Festival, Zydeco Fest, French Quarter Fest, and Jazz Fest. It really is Festival Galore!
That being said, I never leave home without my trusty little Nano shoulder bag. This bag is perfect for the active everyday festival goer, yet small enough to be conspicuous and not get in the way of all the fun. And you can keep your belongings safe and close to your body while being surrounded by thousands of other festival goers.
And the best part is that you get to be completely hands-free the entire time! That means you will have plenty of hands to hold all your beignets, gumbos, and hurricanes. Trust me, you will want to be hands free as you shake it to the Jazz tunes down Frenchmen street once the parades and festivals are done.
No one likes getting stopped at the entrance and having to empty out your entire backpack for the security guard to check through it. Thankfully, the Nano shoulder bag is small enough that you will never have an issue getting it approved at festivals. This will also prevent you from overpacking and only bringing the essentials! You can fit ALL of the following items in your Nano Pack with no problem:
- Phone
- Battery pack with cord
- Wallet with plenty of cash
- Keys
- Chapstick
- Face glitter
- Travel size sunscreen
- sunglasses
Not only is the Nano good for festivals but it is also great for the everyday explorer. The Nano shoulder bag is my go-to bag for trips to the grocery store, walks around the city with my dog, a short hike up a chill mountain, or extra luggage space to keep my essentials on a flight. The best hack I have used it for is taking it on planes to put things that I need handy, like my passport, phone, headphones, and hiding it under a jacket so they don’t count it as your “personal item.” Sneaky, I know, but also GENIUS.
There are 3 new amazing small packs in the Nano collection: the Waistpack mini, switch sling & shoulder bag. Depending on what size you need and how much you are trying to fit, they are all excellent options. The waist pack mini is the smallest, and the switch sling is the largest.
Trust me, you will DEFINITELY need to pick yourself up a small pack from the new Nano line to bring your festival game to the next level! Happy Spring Festival Season!
