Hi festival goers, I have seen so many people with hydration packs at festivals and I’m finally going to purchase one. This is the one I’m looking at but it seems so big! I have been looking at bag policies for various festivals online and none have size requirements for hydration packs (most just say can only have 2 or 3 pockets) but I’m concerned that it looks more like a backpack and that they wouldn’t let me bring it in. Have you ever had issues when trying to get a hydro pack through security? If you have any suggestions for different models or brands please share!! Thanks in advance.
I’m a rave dad, so I have a big pack at all times. This pack ([Pacsafe](https://pacsafe.com/collections/backpacks-1/products/vibe-20l-anti-theft-backpack)) is what I use. I know it’s expensive, but I usually carry everyone’s important things and I’ve never had a problem with it or getting it into a festival. Good luck on your search!
The RaveRunner Hydration pack is anti-theft and does the job for me. They just released a clear version since many nfl stadiums and festivals are requiring clear bags for entrance.
I bring a Large Backpack size camelback to all the fests ive been to and have never had a problem you should be fine at most places just make sure to dump out the water before t he checkpoints on way in thats really the only thing that they are particular about.

I have an Ospery hydration pack (the nice camping ones) and have LOVED it for the last 7 years. It comes with a lifetime warranty too.
How many liters does it fit? Normal hydropacks I’ve used and friends have used at fests normally hold 2-2.5L
