This tip is crucial. If you plan to watch different artists, it’s important to know when and where they’re playing. Conflicts on schedule might force you to choose one over the other. Maximize your time by planning ahead especially when you’re with friends.
2. Weather Protection

The weather plays a big role in festivals, particularly for outdoor venues. It is critical to be prepared with sunblock, hats, and sunglasses for protection from the heat of the sun, or jackets and boots for the cold nights.
3. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes

Who doesn’t want to look attractive in a music fest? No one, of course! But think of all the walking you have to do the whole time. Be creative and still look good by planning what to wear beforehand. The last thing you need is a bruise or blister on either foot that’ll surely ruin the entire experience.
4. Bring a phone charger or power bank

Music festivals have phone charging stations, but the huge crowds might give you problems. That’s when a power bank comes in handy. You don’t want to miss out on a good selfie if your cell phone battery runs down.
5. Stay hydrated

Yes, we all want to indulge in some beer as we’re swaying to our tunes. The problem is that alcohol is dehydrating and outdoor festivals mostly keep you out in the sun for long periods of time. Have a bottle of water with you at all times as your body needs nourishment in these situations.
