UK’s first festi-sential vending machine
LONDON, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tequila Rose is ensuring that festival goers will be looking hot all summer, no matter what the British weather throws at them.
The nation’s favourite pink drink teamed up with Love Island legend Harriet Blackmore and Strictly’s Tasha Ghouri to launch a ‘festi-sentials’ vending machine just in time for festival goers heading for the summer’s biggest events.
Lip gloss is the one thing that females aged 18-44 say they can’t live without at a festival, with more than one in three saying it’s the first thing in their bag in a poll by the UK’s favourite strawberry shot brand.
So Tequila Rose devised the UK’s first vending machine dispensing ‘festi-sentials’ in a festival glam bag to hundreds of music lovers who queued up at London’s Paddington Station.
The giveaway coincided with Strictly star Tasha Ghouri revealing her top three festi-sentials: lip gloss, cochlear implant batteries, and a mini hairbrush are her three non-negotiables for any festival.
Tasha said: “I can never go without my lip gloss at a festival, and love to have a little top up throughout the day.
“Gloss is the one thing out of all my makeup that I feel naked or like something’s missing if I don’t have it on.
“Batteries for my cochlear implants are an absolute essential because I won’t be able to hear without them, and I love my mini-hairbrush, which fits perfectly in my handbag.”
The Tequila Rose poll of 2,000 female festival-goers aged 18 to 44 showed more than a third agreed with Tasha (35%) and chose lip gloss as their go-to glam item to get dolled up while camping, while mascara (21%) ranked second and concealer in third (13%).
Meanwhile, a phone (71%) and portable charger (55%) were the festival essentials Gen Z and Millennial girls can’t live without, along with a mini-mirror (30%) and alcohol (26%).
Sophie McLeay, Tequila Rose Brand Manager, said: “Festival season is in full swing, and our research shows that glam is a top priority for our consumers as they get ready to escape real life and embrace the festival vibe with their friends.
“We know looking and feeling good is all part of the experience, and Tequila Rose is here to be part of that glam moment. We’re encouraging everyone to bring the glam and drink the pink this festival season.”
