Key Benefits
This premium extra large foldable picnic mat transforms any outdoor venue into a comfortable, clean base camp. Whether you are at a crowded outdoor concert, a pre-game tailgate, or a sprawling family reunion in the park, this mat provides a spacious, hygienic barrier between you and the ground. Its generous dimensions allow up to 6 adults to sit comfortably, eliminating the need for bulky chairs or the discomfort of damp grass. The integrated carry strap and foldable design mean you can pack it in seconds and sling it over your shoulder, leaving your hands free for coolers and gear.
Superior Comfort and Durability
- Extra Large Coverage: Measuring 79 x 59 inches, this mat offers ample space for family and friends, ensuring everyone has a spot without feeling cramped.
- Waterproof Backing: The durable PVC backing prevents moisture from wet grass or dew from seeping through, keeping you dry during early morning events or after a light rain.
- Plush Top Layer: The soft, non-woven polyester top feels comfortable against the skin and resists pilling, providing a cozy seating area for extended periods.
Practical Portability
- Easy Fold and Carry: The mat folds down to a compact 15 x 6 inches and secures with a velcro strap, fitting easily into a backpack or tote.
- Integrated Handle: The built-in carry handle makes transport effortless, even when carrying a cooler or other tailgate essentials.
- Quick Cleanup: Spills and dirt wipe clean with a damp cloth, and the material shakes free of grass and sand in moments, simplifying post-event cleanup.
Real Customer Feedback
“I was skeptical about another picnic blanket, but this one has genuinely replaced our camping chairs for outdoor shows. The size is perfect for our family of five, and the waterproof bottom is a lifesaver after a night of heavy dew. Honestly, the strap closure feels a bit stiff at first, but after a few folds, it loosens up and secures perfectly. It has survived three festivals this summer and still looks brand new. The thickness is just right—not too bulky to carry but enough to protect you from roots and small stones.”

FAQ
How do I clean the picnic mat?
For most dirt and spills, simply shake off debris and wipe the surface with a damp cloth or sponge using mild soap. For deeper cleaning, you can hose it down and air dry. Avoid using a washing machine as it may damage the waterproof PVC backing.
Is this mat suitable for the beach?
Yes, it is excellent for the beach. The tight weave of the top layer prevents sand from sticking stubbornly, and a quick shake removes most of it. The waterproof backing ensures you stay dry even if the sand is damp. For a sand-free option, you might also consider our sand-free suede microfiber beach towel which is designed to repel sand instantly.
How many people can fit on this mat?
It comfortably seats 4 to 6 adults. If you have more guests, you can easily pair it with a large soft beach towel to extend your seating area.
Does it fold up small enough for a backpack?
Absolutely. When folded, it measures just 15 x 6 inches, which is roughly the size of a rolled-up yoga mat. It easily slides into a standard backpack side pocket or sits flat at the bottom, making it ideal for hiking to a concert venue.
Will this mat protect against wet grass?
Yes, the PVC backing creates a complete moisture barrier. You can sit on this mat for hours on wet grass without feeling any dampness seeping through. This feature also makes cleanup easier, as you can simply wipe the underside dry before packing it away.
Can I use this mat for indoor activities?
Definitely. It works great as a play mat for toddlers, a soft surface for yoga or stretching, or a protective layer for picnics indoors during bad weather. If you are looking for a more absorbent option for drying off after swimming, check out our lightweight microfiber beach towel which is highly absorbent and quick-drying.
