As a specialist in the field of picnic blankets, we know how important it is to choose the right size for an optimal picnic experience. A well-chosen picnic blanket not only offers comfort, but also functionality and style. In this blog we discuss the ideal dimensions for different situations and introduce our handy selection tool to find the perfect picnic blanket.

Why are the Dimensions of a Picnic Blanket Important?

Choosing the right size picnic blanket is essential for a successful picnic, beach visit or festival. A rug that is too small does not provide enough space, while a rug that is too large can be cumbersome to carry and lay out. Here are some crucial factors to consider:

  • Number of Persons: How many people will usually sit on the rug? A rug for two people does not have to be as large as a rug for an entire family.
  • Space for Food and Stuff: In addition to space for people, you also need room for food, drinks and other picnic supplies.
  • Portability: Larger rugs may be heavier and more difficult to carry. Consider how far you have to walk to your picnic spot.

Standard Dimensions of Picnic Blankets

Although picnic blankets come in all shapes and sizes, there are some standard sizes that are common. Here are the most popular formats and their suitability:

  1. Small Picnic Blanket  Is ideal for 2 to 3 people. It's perfect for a romantic picnic or a small gathering. It offers enough space for a few people and their picnic basket. A very small dress (walker) is very suitable during an outing such as walking and cycling. 

  2. Medium Picnic Blanket  offers enough space for 4 to 6 people. It is an excellent choice for a family or group of friends. There is enough space for everyone to sit comfortably and enjoy the picnic or sit with friends during a festival

  3. Large Picnic Blanket This size is suitable for larger groups of 6 people or more. It generously accommodates everyone, including food and other necessities. This rug is ideal for family gatherings and large picnics or of course on the beach.

Different Types of Picnic Cloths

In addition to size, there are other important features to consider when choosing a picnic blanket:


  • Waterproof Picnic Blanket: Ideal for use on wet grass or sand, ensuring you stay dry.
  • Picnic Blanket with Carrying Bag: Easy to carry and store.
  • Luxury Picnic Blanket: Often made of high-quality materials such as wool for extra comfort and durability.
  • Foldable Picnic Blanket: Convenient to carry and store. This type of rug is ideal for people who travel a lot.
