If you’re on the fence about buying festival passes for this summer and looking for a little something to convince you, you are in luck because I have a handy-dandy list of reasons why you should attend.
The Music (duh!)
There is something so unique about the communal experience that you have at a music festival. It’s an amazing feeling to be able to see your favorite artist in open air, and to be around people who are vibing just as much as you are.
The Tan
Festivals are typically in the height of summer, which means it’s the best time to soak up some much-needed sun! Sure, you might get some weird tan lines from your outfit choices, but you’re still going to leave looking like a bronze god/goddess. Just remember to wear sunscreen, nasty sunburn during a festival can lowkey ruin some parts of it.
The Outfits
At a festival, almost anything goes. This is the best time to experiment with fashion. You can get as crazy as you want, or keep it as lowkey as you usually would. Like I said, you might get some funky tan lines but honestly, it’s totally worth it.
The Food
The food at music festivals? HIGHLY UNDERRATED. I went to Lollapalooza last year and there were lobster corn dogs. How incredible, am I right? Also, people think that the good food at festivals is expensive, but in reality, it’s much more reasonable than people think! And if it is expensive, I say why not indulge a little bit?
The Photo-ops
Okay, if you follow me on Instagram you know I post more than the average bear. Never have I EVER passed up an opportunity to take a dope picture, and I don’t think that will ever change. So, if you are like me and THRIVE on “artsy” pictures, you should DEFINITELY go to a music festival.
The People
Everyone at a festival is there for the same reason you are, maybe not the same artists, but definitely the same reason. You can go with friends, or you can make friends! It’s so easy to talk to people when you already know you have something in common!
The Experience
The experience at a music festival is truly one-of-a-kind. You just have to fully immerse yourself if where you are and what is around you. There are so many different things to do and to see while you’re there, and it’s something you will never forget.
So, if this didn’t convince you, I hope something else does because you do NOT want to miss out on one of summer’s main events!
