Get your flower crowns, totems, and baby wipes ready people.

The sun is shining and the sound birds are singing because... (dramatic pause) ...

it is officially Fest SZN!

There is an endless number of great things that go on at a music festival, but if you're not careful, things could go terribly wrong. I'M TALKING DEATH, PEOPLE.

If you are a first time festival goer, or you are that typical person who gets taken out of a mosh pit and dragged to the medical tent, or just an avid fest addict who just needs some freshening up before your next fest,

here is a list of the DOs and DON'Ts that you need to know before attending a music festival:

First, we will start off with the DONT's because this is the most important and crucial:

1. Don't bother with the showers.

They smell like sulfur, are cold, and are expensive. I suggest many many baby wipes and/or possibly buying a camper shower.. those are worth it!

2. Don't expect to see every band you want.

Narrow it down to the people you absolutely want to see, and then go from there. Don't run around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to see every set. Been there, done that.

3. Don't forget the necessities.

I know the only thing going through your head is what outfit you should wear the first day, but don't forget to pack the important stuff. Baby wipes, toilet paper, towels, toothbrush, deodorant, bandana, and TOILET PAPER. You can thank me later, festival bathrooms get out of hand way too quickly.

4. Don't forget portable chargers.

This can help a lot. Those charging stations barely work when there are 67 iPhones hooked up to them. Invest is a good portable and it can go a long way!

5. Don't leave things out.

You may think everything is all rainbows and butterflies, but there are some bad people out here in this world. Make sure to lock up your cars, and don't leave anything valuable out in the open where people can snag it. HIDE THAT WHISKEY SON!

6. Don't be afraid.

Go out of your comfort zone (in a good and safe way). Get on that random boy's shoulders during Matt and Kim or crowd surf. Although everyone below you will hate you, and there is a chance you could fall, just have the people around you slingshot you into the air and nature will take its course.

7. Don't be annoying.

Some people literally camp out at stages starting from the time that the gates open. Don't be that annoying person who pushes their way to the front because you love that one song by The Weeknd. We are all there for the same reason, so chill out.

8. Don't forget to decorate.

Your campsite is your new home for a week! Make it fun and inviting. Buy cute decorations, bring your tapestry, and bring a Bluetooth speaker!

9. Don't do the dirty.

I promise you, a sweaty tent is no romantic place to be doin' it. Your body is probably the dirtiest and grossest it has ever been, and quite frankly, you don't know where anyone's hands have been in the past week.

And now for the DO's:

1. Do bring sunscreen.

This can literally ruin your festival. The sun is crucial and damaging so make sure to block up yourself, block up your friends, and block up your neighbor Karl who already has sun poisoning from day one (pun intended if you've ever been to Roo).

2. Do take pictures.

You are going to want these memories for the rest of your life, but try not to make the camera be in front of your face for too long. I suggest bringing a disposable camera because they're not too expensive and getting the pictures developed could be an exciting surprise.

3. Do have a designated meeting spot.

Whether that be back to your campsite, or a random tree, it is important to have a meeting spot incase you all go your separate ways and your phones die (or no service which will most likely be your number one answer).

4. Do hydrate.

The sun, and lack of hydrating can turn your festival upside down. I recommend drinking lots of water and also Pedialyte! You will get looked at weird by baby mamas in Walmart when buying this stuff but honestly, it'll save your life. Drink some before bed, and when you wake up.

5. Do wear deodorant.

Not only is this good for you, but it is good for the people surrounding you. I'm not kidding, you can literally knock people out with your raunchy ass. Be kind, and lather up. A lot.

6. Do eat well.

Shove your face before walking into the festival because I guaranty when you are on your fifth hour of waiting front row at main stage for The Killers, you'll probably start craving your canned ravioli that you have back at your site.

7. Do make friends.

This is probably the most exciting thing about music festivals. Meet new people, talk to randoms, and become best friends with your neighbors! This will definitely be one of the things you will remember the most is the amazing people surrounding you!

8. Do know your limits.

Don't over tep yourself when it comes to anything. When it comes to drinking or anything in the in-between- don't hurt yourself. Every year thousands of people test their limits at festivals and it ends badly. Be safe, take it easy, and have fun!

Festival season can be exciting, but just make sure you are keeping yourself and others around you safe. Don't forget to put your phone away and connect with the people surrounding you. You paid probably $300-$500 just in your entrance ticket so have fun, radiate good vibes, and enjoy the music!

I cannot wait to see what this festival season brings and I hope to meet many of you!
