Think You're Too Old For The Coachella Music Festival? Not If You Stay In These.

Too old to spend three days outdoors in the desert listening to loud music amongst rolling teens? Not if you bunk in one of these babies.

Luxury Safari Tents are now offered as onsite lodging at the annual Coachella music festival for those who don't wish to sleep in crammed nylon tent, a sleeping bag, the back of a car, or use their jacket as a pillow, flick bugs off their bodies or pee in a hole in the ground.
