6 Reasons You Should Go To A Music Festival

In This Article:

If it weren't for our old friend Corona, we would be in the midst of festival season right about now. These past few months of social distancing have me reminiscing on my times at music festivals: seeing my favorite artists, making memories with friends and living my best life. Although festival season has been canceled this summer, that's no reason not to plan for next year.

There's something for everyone

Rolling Loud Miami 2019

There are music festivals for practically every genre you can think of! Festivals like Coachella focus on a variety of genres (rock, pop, hip hop, EDM, etc.), while festivals like Rolling Loud focus on one genre (hip hop).

Make new friends

Music festivals are full of people who enjoy the same music as you; Why not get to know them? You can especially do this at festivals that offer camping, such as Firefly.

Instagram worthy photos

If you're all about having that perfect Instagram feed, a festival is definitely for you. There is often art and props to get your selfie on.

The food

If you're a foodie like me, you'll love the opportunity to check out the wide variety of food from dumplings and tacos to ice cream in a waffle... yum!

Dance your heart out

You get to leave all your worries behind for the weekend as you hear music from your favorite artists, while creating memories with your best friends.

More bang for your buck

Governors Ball NYC 2018

Rather than paying hundreds of dollars to see one artist in concert, festivals give you the opportunity to see multiple acts for possibly the same price. There's nothing like the rush of running from one stage to the next to catch each artist's set.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
