  • Take the party outside Dust off the BBQ, grab the sunscreen (stay safe kids), and prepare for a summer to remember. The Sony GTK-PG10 Outdoor Bluetooth Party Speaker is a bit different from your average party speaker – the top folds out into a mini table with cup holders.Don’t worry about the odd spill though, it can handle it.Brilliant soundWait, it gets better. When you fold it out, the sound is projected upwards and outwards, so everyone can hear the party tunes. Genius.Place it on the ground or mount it onto a tripod so the sound reaches even further. Or bring it inside and pop it next to the sofa for the cup final.Party anywhereYou don’t have to trail your extension lead from the house. The PG10 has a 13-hour battery that’ll see the party through from beginning to end, and even provide the soundtrack to the post-party clean-up.Control from your phoneDon’t spend the party glued to your speaker. Use the Fiestable app and take control of the music from anywhere. You can take requests and queue them up or dial up the bass, all from your phone. Plus, you can pair up to 3 phones via Bluetooth and mix up the playlist with your friends.
