Picnic & on-the-go
It’s a beautiful day for a picnic, isn’t it? Grab a blanket, cool bag or a pop-up shelter and head to your favourite spot for some outdoor recreation and relaxation. If the weather’s not cooperating, you can still pretend it’s nice and have a lovely day gathered together on the living room floor.
Where summer starts
You don't have to go very far to feel like you're on holidays. With the new SOLUPPGÅNG limited edition, you'll get the most out of summer wherever you go. Enjoying a coffee at sunrise, a conversation at sunset… This furniture is designed for getting more out of every day and every ray of sunshine, for less.
Packed and ready for adventure
What should I look for in a picnic bag?
A good picnic bag does more than carry your lunch—it keeps things cool, neat and ready to enjoy wherever the day takes you. Whether you're planning a beach day, park picnic or a lunch break in the wild, our range of picnic bags makes it easy to bring your favourite bites along for the ride. Look for insulated interiors to keep food fresh, adjustable straps for comfy carrying, and pockets to stash the small but essential extras. Some come in the form of backpacks for hands-free convenience, while others are classic carry-style—ideal for quick grab-and-go moments.
How do I keep everything organised and fresh on the go?
A picnic is more fun when you’re not digging around for a fork or wondering if your salad made it in one piece. That’s where the right accessories come in. Our selection includes lunch bags for personal portions, food boxes to separate snacks, mains and sauces, and compact carrier bags to bundle everything together. Think stackable containers, leak-proof lids, and smart compartments—designed to handle everything from fruit and flatbreads to dips and desserts.
Top tips for a smooth setup:
- Use food boxes to pack different temperatures separately
- Label containers if sharing with others
- Bring a small cloth or mat to lay out your picnic spread in style
- Keep utensils in side pockets so they don’t get lost in the mix

Choose materials that are durable yet light—perfect for bumpy car rides or walks through the woods.
And if you’re heading out with little ones or a group of hungry adventurers, our larger picnic bags and backpacks mean there’s space for everyone’s favourites. With smart storage and thoughtful features, you’ll be surprised how much joy can fit inside one bag.
