A friend of mine does shows with many small glass tanks. The tanks are put around the parameter of a table without any gaps between. In the center, he puts a couple bags of ice. Then a board on top (another level of tanks in his case) to hold the cool in the center.

This has gotten his many reptiles and amphibians through several California summer daytime shows.

This still must be done in the shade, and temps should be checked often.

On really hot days, I would consider keeping an ice chest full of ice with you for emergencies too- (like if your car breaks down along the highway, or your a/c quits) or at least have a plan on what you would do if that happened.
