Have you ever been in that critical moment when the bathroom line is scarier than the main stage lineup? Welcome to the guide that will save your bladder (and your dignity).
If you've ever been in line for the bathroom at a festival, you know there are two types of people: those who pray they'll make it on time and those who have planned alternatives. Welcome to the club of those who prefer to enjoy the concert rather than suffer the drama of the chemical toilet.
Because yes, festivals are all about freedom, music, cold beer, and sunshine... until you get the urge. And then, utopia becomes a mission of survival. Today we bring you the ultimate pee-friendly guide to emerging victorious without losing your smile (or your dignity).
Your bladder will thank us (and your shoes too).
First rule of the pee club: never trust the blue bathroom.
Officially they are called "portable toilets" or "portable toilets".
Unofficially: Chemical Hell on Earth .
These are the baths that promise relief and deliver trauma.
They smell of regret, they vibrate as if there were their own DJ inside, and when it's finally your turn to enter... you discover you need a chemical protection PPE suit to survive.
And the lines? Endless. There's always someone who takes half an hour because, of course, they're wearing impossible overalls or pants with more buttons than a PlayStation controller.
PlanPee Solution: Stop playing toilet roulette.
There are smarter, cleaner, and even more fun ways to survive. We'll tell you a few.
Beer is not the enemy
At a festival, no one wants to be moderate. Not with water or beer.
So forget about "don't drink too much or you'll get cravings": drink as much as you want, just distribute it wisely .
It's not about drinking less, but about knowing when to drink. Your bladder deserves a little strategy, too.
FOR EXAMPLE, if you know your favorite band is about to play... Don't drink a whole beer and a half at once... Wait a while for it to finish before filling up the tank again... 🥲
Because when your body says "I'm going," it doesn't matter if your favorite band is playing or that song you were hoping to post on TikTok live : you're going to have to choose between the blue bathroom or your freedom.
And we prefer freedom.
Speaking of freedom, now we're going to tell you about our magical PlanPee bag solution for concerts and music festivals.
What the heck is a urinary bag and why would you want one?
The word "urinary bag" sounds like a hospital, we know (WTF?).
But PlanPee has nothing to do with that.
It's your VIP pass to the invisible bathroom: a disposable bag, clean, odorless, and that protects your dignity better than a bodyguard .
It works like this:
-
You find a discreet spot: a closed bathroom, a car, a store, two strategic trash cans, behind a food truck, or between two colleagues covering you with a scarf. The creativity is endless.
-
You open your bag, you do your thing.
-
The magic inside does its work in seconds, and when you close the bag, everything is sealed, with no leaks or odors.
-
You close it, throw it away (or save it if you don't have a trash can nearby; remember, it's hermetically sealed and odor-free), and continue enjoying the concert.
There is nothing strange, scatological, or shameful.
Just quick relief and zero drama.
And if someone asks you what that gray thing in your backpack is, smile and say:
"My plan B starts with P."
(You can read the next post with real stories of "PlanPee situations" here... we're already preparing it 👀)
What if the concert lasts eight hours? (Spoiler alert: there's a plan, too.)
There are festivals that seem designed by Satan: no bathrooms nearby, endless lines, and stages half an hour away from everything.
For those extreme cases, there is NoDramaPee , the ally of those who don't want to miss a beat.
It is a premium reusable adult diaper , comfortable and discreet.
It's not noticeable, it doesn't move, it doesn't even look like a diaper, and most importantly, it doesn't spoil your mood.
Ideal for long concerts, bus rides or endless nights.
🩵 NoDramaPee: diapers for concerts and festivals
For concerts, travel, and impossible waits. NoDramaPee is reusable, washable, comfortable, and discreet. Zero leaks, zero interruptions. You dance; it takes care of the rest.
PlanPee for discreet emergencies.
NoDramaPee for marathons.
Your bladder happy, your concert intact.
🎒 The ultimate pee-friendly kit (lightweight, realistic, and no nonsense)
Packing light in your festival backpack is an art.
But if you go too minimalist, you'll regret it later.
Your ideal backpack should include:
-
1 or 2 PlanPee bags (if you think you'll be drinking more than 3 beers, it's better to bring 4 😉)
-
Kleenex tissues (by the way, you can leave them in the PlanPee bag when you're done - less to worry about).
-
Biodegradable or baby wipes (the traditional, soft, and miraculous ones).
- Disposable compressed wipes : If the above doesn't convince you (you want to carry the minimum expression in your backpack), we have a product that you'll love... they are extra-compressed wipes, barely the size of a piece of gum and that weigh nothing, that with the slightest contact with water expand until they become the towel you were looking for (to clean hands, body, sweat, whatever you need...).
- Another option is the PlanPee Ultra Absorbent Polyester Mini Towel . It takes up minimal space and weighs very little, and dries everything super well.
-
An empty bottle —they'll let you bring it—and keep the cap in a "strategic" pocket. Then refill it at a fountain or bathroom if you need to wash your hands or refresh yourself.
- Clean underwear to change into if the day has been busy.
That's all that saves you in an "oh my!" moment.
💃 Pee-friendly tricks for women tested in real life
Female tails deserve their own documentary.
So here are some battlefield-tested tips:
-
Practical clothing: no impossible jumpsuits or triple-buckle belts. The easier they are to remove, the happier your bladder.
-
Pareo or large scarf: it can become your "express screen" to improvise privacy.
-
Urinal funnel: yes, it exists, and yes, it works. It's a silicone accessory that allows you to pee standing up (seriously). The first time it's impressive, the second time you wonder how you ever lived without it. You can use it with your PlanPee bag and get through the tough times like a pro. Or, if you have the "must" to fit into a blue chemical toilet, you can use it to pee standing up, making sure you don't touch anything.
And if you're concerned about safety or hygiene, remember:
prevention is better than cure.
Planning your pee is also self-care.
Quick FAQs (to read while waiting for your group)
Is it legal to urinate outside the bathroom at a festival?
It depends on the location. In most places, it can involve a fine.
We explain it in detail here 👉 Fines for urinating in the street in Spain 2025
What happens if there are no free bathrooms?
Find a quiet spot, get ready, and use your PlanPee. You don't need to disappear for 20 minutes or miss your favorite song.
What do I do if I'm embarrassed to use a bag?
Trust us: it's more embarrassing to enter a chemical toilet when someone accidentally opens the door.
And to poop?
If you absolutely have to go to the chemical toilet to relieve yourself... In addition to all the above (wipes, paper towels, etc.), we can recommend disposable toilet covers, which we also carry at PlanPee. They'll help you if you absolutely have to use the portable chemical toilet...
Closing the show: When the bathroom fails, you don't
Festivals are about freedom, sweat, laughter, and gallons of beer.
And now, they are also comfort and planning.
Because holding on is no longer a plan .
Planning yes.
So the next time you get the urge to leave and see that endless queue, smile:
you already have your PlanPee.
💛 Your plan B starts with P.
