Damn you festivals and your awesome innovations!

As if the magical toilets at Glastonbury weren’t enough- the good people over at Lollapalooza have made it so you can chuck your credit card details into your festival wristbands.

The awesome little chips inserted into the wristband allow you to pay for food, booze and merch without having to carry the cash, purchase drink tickets or be stuck in a never-ending line for the bloody ATM.

The initiative, titled Lolla Cashless is the first of it’s kind for an American music festival. Attendees will be able to submit their information online and then purchase items through a special sales system exclusive to Lollapalooza. The systems will work on a tap then PIN basis.

The lucky punters will be able to sip easy with the cashless payments whilst enjoying the sick lineup form the Chicago festival – including Skrillex, Calvin Harris, Zedd, Darkside, Chromeo and Jagwar Ma amongst many, many others. Bastards.
