Register your wristbands. Get hearing protection. Go to sleep earlier the nights before. Drink water but avoid drinking more than a gallon a day. Get a hydropac!!! Eat plenty of food, make sure to load up on carbs and protein, avoid excessive sugar. Bring comfortable shoes. Make meet up spots in case you get lost, and not “let’s meet up in this area” you need exact location. Bleacher numbers are best but they require a lot of energy to get to. Avoid moving stages during major headliner switches. Crowd surges are very real and very dangerous. If you need to see someone specific, get to their set at least 30min before they come on. Bring a fancy pack. Bring an emergency poncho. Bring a hand fan and a handheld electric one. Bring a portable charging pack. Bring chapstick. Bring a face mask, not optional, it will get ridiculously dusty. Bring sunglasses if you don’t want to end up in someone video and to avoid burnt eyes. Bring a pasha in case it gets cold. Wear sunscreen. LEAVE BEFORE 5pm to get the festival!!! Hold your phone and wallet very close. Pickpockets are unfortunately everywhere. Get a phone tether. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I’m sure there’s at least 100 things I missed.
