Tailgating Setup Essentials
Portable Canopy and Table
First and foremost, you'll need the right tailgating equipment to ensure you have the right atmosphere and that all of your tailgating guests are comfortable

  • Tailgate Chairs - There aren't many other tailgating supplies that are more important than chairs. A tailgate is designed to be a relaxing way to kick back and enjoy the pregame festivities, therefore, some portable folding chairs are a must.
  • Folding Tables - Whether for food or for games, folding tailgate tables serve a very important purpose at all tailgates. Where else are you going to put your food and drink?
    • Tablecloths - They add class to your tailgate (and your tables won't get all sticky and dirty!)
  • Tens & Canopies - Rain or shine, tailgate parties are always subject to Mother Nature. With an adequate tailgate tent, you can give your guests a way to get out of the hot sun, or stay dry when it rains.
  • Generators/Power SuppliesIf you plan on bringing any appliances or equipment that require power, you'll need a portable generator. These power supplies allow you to really turn your tailgate into an outdoor living room!
    • Power strip/Surge Protector - So you can power more than one thing at a time
    • Extension Cords - The addition of an extension cord will allow you be more flexible with your setup.
    • Gasoline - You'll need some extra gas if you're using a gas-powered generator.
  • Flags/Banners and Flag Poles - What better what to show your true team pride than by flying your teams flag high atop a portable flagpole. The telescoping flagpoles are also perfect for creating a landmark for your tailgate among a sea of other tailgaters. Banners will also let you decorate your tailgate party with your teams colors!
    • Flag Pole Mount - Don't forget a mount for your flagpole...how else will the flagpole stand straight?
  • Lights & Lanterns - If you plan on having a tailgate that extends into the night, you'll need a way to see what you're doing! Flashlights will also do the trick.
  • Automotive Accessories - Car Mats, Hitch Covers, License Plates, Tailgate Seats, Headrest Covers.... Find any way to turn your car/truck into a fan-mobile!
  • Heaters - If you're tailgating in a notoriously cold location, a portable fireplace or heater is a savior!
    • Wind Screen - Like to tailgate but hate the wind? Try a wind screen to keep the wind out.
  • Tool Kit - Tool kits are one of the most necessary yet forgotten tailgating essentials! Whether you're repairing something or building a new tailgate item, the benefits of having a toolkit are endless.
