Charging my MacBook Pro with a Powerbank

I'm going to a festival next week and need to take my mac to use for a performance. Is it possible to charge my mac with a normal USB powerbank? If so, are there any specific leads I need to buy to make this possible? Thanks for your help!

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Hi,

No. A powerbank is a battery device designed to charge small devices through the USB ports, but not provide the wattage necessary for charging a MacBook's battery.

You need to get PowerBank for Laptop like following.
