An essential piece of show/camping equipment is the fire pit or log burner.
There's nothing better than relaxing around a roaring fire under an event shelter while the temperature drops and the beer/cider/wine/rum flows.
Get it right and the circulation of air can feel like an air curtain around the outside of the event shelter.

If like our group you love a curried stew, with the right type of pot you can cook on the open fire too, communal cooking and eating is what group camping is all about.
