With summer fast approaching, festival season is just around the corner. From the legendary fields of Glastonbury to the heavy-hitting line-ups at Download, lucky ticket holders around the UK are gearing up for weekends of good vibes, live music, and (hopefully) sunshine-filled afternoons with a drink in hand.
But whether you're moshing to metal or soaking up indie anthems, one thing is sure - a solid camping setup is key to surviving multi-day events. Most will need a reliable tent to call home for the weekend and while quality gear can get expensive, outdoor brand Tiso has dropped a brilliant deal that makes upgrading a little easier.
The Phoxx II v2 2-Person Tent is now £84 from £230 - a massive £146 saving. Designed with pre-angled poles for extra internal space, this sturdy tent comfortably fits two people and even features a porch area - ideal for keeping muddy boots separate from your sleeping zone.

Festive-friendly extras include internal storage pockets for easy access to essentials, lantern hanging points, and a fully waterproof groundsheet and flysheet built to withstand classic British downpours. Better still, it only takes around seven minutes to pitch, so you can enjoy music more than fumbling with tent poles.
However, if you need something larger for a big group, there are plenty of options. Mountain Warehouse's 6-person design, currently £159.99 from £259.99, features a dome style with ample ventilation and flysheet doors.

This tent has a w aterproof polyester flysheet to withstand heavy rain, l antern hanging points and i nternal storage pockets.
Otherwise, Decathlon has this inflatable option for eight people. At £999.99, it's expensive, but it's super easy to set up and has a spacious living area and three bedrooms.
For festival goers and campers starting completely from scratch, Tiso also has a wealth of camping accessories to browse, including sleeping bags and airbeds. This lightweight down-filled sleeping bag, reduced to £186 from £260, is great for keeping cosy (and warm) at night.
Shoppers may also want to consider picking up a camping chair. This nifty folding seat with a drinks holder is only £10 in the sale.
Back to the Phoxx II v2 2-Person Tent, one shopper noted that the tent 'hasn't let them down yet' and another said it 'fit two people snugly.' Someone said, "Tried it last night for the first time. Easy to erect. Lightweight and compact and very well made."
However, one person noted: "The only issue is that the small pole is VERY tight to get into place and could break if forced too much."
If you prefer to camp solo, Tiso has also reduced the Phoxx I v2 1-Person Tent to £70 from £165. It has many of the same features - water protection, smart storage and quick pitching - but it has a compact tunnel structure, meaning you'll need to crawl inside.

One shopper said: "I bought this for my daughter as we're planning a bikepacking trip. Space is tight, but it feels robust, and it's light and compact enough to fit in a handlebar bag."

Not everyone was impressed, though. This review reads: "Tiny! I can't sit inside (I'm just 5'3) which makes it impractical for changing clothes and do tick checks. It's more of a shelter/bivvy rather than a tent. It's very discreet in the wild, though.
But someone else said: "In its first use, this little tent stood up to everything thrown at it, including a month's worth of rain in 24 hours."

Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club sees Harry Potter star in huge role
Netflix is bringing Richard Osman's book, The Thursday Murder Club, to screens with a film adaptation that promises to be a hit. The director is known for his work on Harry Potter. Netflix has gone all out for the film adaptation of Richard Osman's bestselling novel, The Thursday Murder Club – packed with a killer cast and a well-known director behind the camera. Set in the picturesque Coopers Chase retirement village in Kent, the story follows four sharp-minded pensioners who meet weekly to pore over unsolved crimes. But when a real-life murder falls into their laps, they swap coffees and chit chat for sleuthing. Behind the camera is Chris Columbus, the director behind the first two Harry Potter films, Mrs Doubtfire and Home Alone. His time on the Potter franchise gave him a deep affection for Britain and its quirky humour. 'During Potter, I spent five years living in the UK,' he says. 'I grew quite fond of the dark, edgy British humour and I managed to incorporate some of that into those films and much more of it into The Thursday Murder Club .' Finding a writer to adapt Richard Osman 's work was tricky. 'I was a fan of the books, but the initial scripts I read veered far from the novel,' Chris says. 'I felt this was a mistake and I wanted to preserve what everyone loved about the book.' Enter actress and comedian Katy Brand. Chris says, 'When I met with Katy, I was convinced she not only understood what made the novel so popular, but she also had the vision to write a film that was faithful to the source material.' Leading the charge in the line-up is Helen Mirren as Elizabeth Best. Throughout her career, Helen has played everything from steely assassins to Queen Elizabeth II. Now, she's playing a woman with a past shrouded in secrecy. 'We can tell she was someone powerful and substantial, but it's all a bit secret,' Helen says. 'Was she a high level politician? Was she a high level operative in MI5 or MI6? She never quite talks about it, but we get a sense. She's tough, she's smart and she has witnessed some heavy duty things.' Joining her is Pierce Brosnan, best known for donning James Bond 's tuxedos. He trades spying for laughs to play Ron Ritchie. 'Ron is a stout fellow of good character,' Pierce says. 'He doesn't particularly want to be at Coopers Chase, but there's a time in life when you just have to hang up your spurs.' Ron's good friend Ibrahim Arif (Ben Kingsley) is a psychiatrist whose skills prove invaluable to the club's investigations. 'He's clearly empathetic because he's a psychiatrist and he needs to interpret patterns of human behaviour in order to heal,' Ben says. 'Now he can bring those same skills to a forensic quest to solve unsolved police cases through empathy, knowledge of patterns of human behaviour, compassion and imagination.' Elizabeth strikes up a bond with newcomer Joyce Meadowcroft, a recently widowed woman who's determined to fit in. Celia Imrie brings Joyce to life. 'Sir Laurence Olivier always said you've got to like the person you're playing – and I really did,' says Celia. 'Joyce has an innocence about her. She's unsure of herself but fun, enthusiastic and a good sport. At the beginning of the film she wants, very much, to be included and is especially keen to make new friends.' The four pals cross paths with PC Donna De Freitas, played by Naomi Ackie, a police officer they help unofficially – to the irritation of her superior. 'It was a really big pull for me to work with these juggernauts of British screen, who I've looked up to for a long time,' says Naomi. 'Having them consolidated into one project was really great. They are so gracious with their talent and it's been a real joy getting to know them.' The drama isn't confined to the murder mystery. David Tennant joins the mix as Ian Ventham, co-owner of Coopers Chase, whose redevelopment plans could force residents out. 'He's not the most sympathetic character,' David says. 'He's just someone who's got himself in a very particular situation and doesn't have the people skills to get through life with as much charm as one might hope he should have.' The love for the novels also runs deeply within the cast. 'I was one of the many millions who read the book and loved it,' says Helen. 'I was utterly charmed by it. My friends who read the book said, 'If they ever make a movie, you have to play Elizabeth.'' For Pierce, the project was a chance to collaborate with Chris again. 'He's s an old pal,' he says. 'He seems to come around every 10 years or so with wonderful jobs for me. He sent me the script and I loved it.' The Thursday Murder Club is released on Netflix on August 28th.

Ibiza Final Boss slapped with dire warning as he 'must make important decision'
'Ibiza Final Boss' Jack Kay is enjoying the summer of a lifetime, seizing every opportunity his newfound fame has brought him. However, an expert has warned that he now has three major pitfalls to avoid 'Ibiza Final Boss' Jack Kay will remember the summer of 2025 for the rest of his life, but an expert had warned it might come at a cost if he's not careful. The ordinary lad from Newcastle is currently the man of the moment after footage of him dancing away on the famed party island earned him legions of followers. His distinct Lego-style haircut means he likely won't be slipping under the radar anytime soon. While riding the high of becoming one of the most recognisable viral sensations in recent years, 26-year-old Jack has been seizing every opportunity that comes his way. Rave icon Jack has already released his first dance track in collaboration with music artist Carnao Beats. He's also announced an upcoming nightclub tour and there have been reports of a potential Big Brother appearance, much to the delight of fans. Overnight, Jack has entered a life where he flies by private jet and gets DMs from the likes of and Durex. But what does it mean for the party animal long term? The Mirror spoke with Mayah Riaz, PR to the stars and all-around expert on the highs and lows of fame. Jack's situation, Mayah says, is "a textbook case" of what she refers to as "flashpoint fame". Explaining this definition, Mayah explained: "That sudden viral moment that feels unstoppable, until it isn't. This type of fame in 2025 can arrive overnight, without warning, and without a manual." It's hard to think of a better example of just how transformative viral fame can be. Jack flew off on a mates' holiday like any other British twentysomething, on a budget airline. Just days later, he returned via private jet. It's not surprising, then, that 'Ibiza Bob' can be seen grinning from ear to ear in every photograph he posts. But how long can this rush last, and could the winds of fortune change once more for Jack, just as quickly? Mayah, who is currently writing a book on "all aspects" of fame, said: "Viral fame is that it is a sugar rush as it's fast, intoxicating, and feels like it will last forever. But in reality, the public's attention span is shorter than ever now. Unless someone has a clear plan and a way to keep themselves relevant, the spotlight can fade in weeks, sometimes days. "This is where having a good team around you is key. But when you're thrown into overnight fame, Jack has found himself in, it's difficult to know who the right people are and figure out what you need, as often you find yourself surrounded by people who want to cash in on your fame." With this in mind, the expert has warned of three major pitfalls which may well trip up the Ibiza Final Boss as he continues his summer of a lifetime. She advised: "Firstly, burnout from overexposure is very common. When every waking hour is an opportunity, it's tempting to say yes to everything. The danger is that he will exhaust himself, lose perspective, and make choices for quick wins rather than sustainable growth. "There is also financial whiplash. The money from club appearances or collaborations can feel like it will keep coming, but unless he diversifies his income and thinks long-term, he can end up with a higher lifestyle and no means to support it once the hype dies down. "And then comes the 'now what?' moment. When it does die down, going from constant attention to near silence can be a huge emotional adjustment. Without a plan for what comes after, it could leave him feeling lost or chasing riskier stunts to stay in the headlines." Thankfully for Jack, there are plenty of stars who have managed to build something more long-lasting after finding overnight fame, sustaining their profile over many years. So what separates the stars that soar from those that flicker and burn out all too quickly? Mayah revealed: "The people who turn a viral moment into a career are the ones who treat fame like a business, not a party. "They have a vision beyond the headlines, they know their audience, and they align every appearance with their long-term story. Now, Jack isn't going to necessarily know this himself, as this has literally been overnight for him. As he has an agent, this is why it is important for him to put that support in place for Jack. "Jack's challenge and opportunity is to decide if this is something that he wants to continue after Ibiza's summer season. If he wants it to continue, my advice to him would be to treat it as a springboard, not a peak. This would mean that, in between partying, he plans his next move before the first wave of attention is over, builds relationships in the industry, and aligns himself with opportunities that make sense for his brand." Offering some pearls of wisdom, Mayah continued: "As I always tell clients: fame is a spark, not a fireplace. If you want lasting warmth, you have to build the fire. "There definitely could be something lasting here if Jack treats this as the start of a story rather than the whole story. But if it's all lived in the now, the spotlight will inevitably move on - and it always does!"
