Check your named festival’s current rules before buying a smoothie in a glass bottle: Glastonbury Festival lists glass containers and bottles as prohibited articles, while Victorious Festival prohibits glass in its stated food and drink rules. If glass is not permitted, choose a container the event allows, then match the bottle size and storage instructions to your camping plans. A larger chilled bottle can work for several drinkers with reliable refrigeration; a smaller bottle is easier to finish without keeping an opened large bottle at the campsite.
Festival rules, access to refrigeration and the number of people sharing a bottle can each change which smoothie is practical to pack.
Check the current rules for your festival and the areas you will enter before packing drinks. Glastonbury Festival lists glass containers and bottles as prohibited articles; Victorious Festival also states no glass in its food and drink rules. Neither rule establishes what another event permits.
Read the storage instructions on the exact smoothie rather than assuming a sealed bottle can stay in a tent. Sainsbury’s listing for innocent Strawberries, Bananas & Apples Smoothie 750ml specifies refrigeration at 0–8°C before and after opening.
Consider how many servings the group will use and whether an opened bottle can remain chilled. Retailer ranges include smaller bottles as well as 750ml options; the larger size is useful only when its storage instructions fit the campsite setup.
Start with the event’s container rules, then check storage and choose a volume that fits the people drinking it.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Container rules | Read the current rules for the named festival, including any distinction between campsite and arena entry. Glastonbury Festival and Victorious Festival prohibit glass in their stated contexts; check the material of the bottle you intend to take. | I need a drink I can take into the areas I plan to use, rather than assuming a glass bottle will be accepted. |
| Cold storage | Check the exact product’s temperature instructions before and after opening. Sainsbury’s lists 0–8°C storage for innocent Strawberries, Bananas & Apples Smoothie 750ml; do not apply that instruction to every smoothie. | If I cannot keep a chilled drink at its required temperature, I need to choose a product whose own storage directions fit my setup. |
| Bottle size | Compare the stated volume with the number of drinkers and the plan for finishing an opened bottle. Waitrose lists a 250ml innocent smoothie, while M&S Food describes 350ml and 750ml ready-made options. | A smaller bottle may be simpler to carry for one person; for a group breakfast, I can consider a larger bottle if we can store and finish it as directed. |
| Servings | Look at serving information separately from bottle volume. For 5 A Day purposes, the NHS says fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies count only once per day, up to a combined 150ml, and advises having them at mealtimes. | I want to plan how a bottle will be shared without counting every 150ml poured from it as another 5 A Day portion. |
A glass container may breach the event’s entry rules. Glastonbury Festival lists glass containers and bottles as prohibited articles, and Victorious Festival states no glass in its food and drink rules; these are event-specific restrictions, not a rule for every festival.
Check the current terms for your named event and each area you plan to enter. If you cannot establish whether glass is permitted, choose another container format.
Sealing a bottle does not override its storage instructions. Sainsbury’s listing for innocent Strawberries, Bananas & Apples Smoothie 750ml requires refrigeration at 0–8°C both before and after opening.
Read the exact product label before buying. If its required temperature is impractical at your campsite, choose a product with storage directions you can follow.
The NHS says fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies count only once per day for 5 A Day purposes, up to a combined total of 150ml. A larger bottle does not change that guidance.
Use the serving information when planning how to share a bottle, and follow NHS advice to have smoothies at mealtimes.
