People queue for hours, a tragic waste of festival time.
Wireless pads would make charging times longer and hence the queues too.
Camping / trekking you still want cables for speed of charge
Back when I went to such things nobody carried around cellphones and didn’t have any less of an experience.
We even had plans like “if anyone gets separated we’ll all meet up at the beer tent” because nobody wants to get left a couple hours from home because they didn’t pay attention to where the car was parked.
Kids these days…
Some people that go to festivals or concerts take pictures so I guess for them a bad camera is better than no camera.
(People can obviously do whatever they want. I simply find that someone degrading their experience so they can take photos of some festival that probably has zillions of higher quality stills and footage online hard to understand.)
