Festival season is upon us, and attendees are gearing up for a fun and safe experience. Here are some practical tips to help festivalgoers make the most of their time.
First, it's important to stay hydrated. "Remember to pack your empty refillable water bottle," organizers advise. This simple step ensures you have access to water throughout the event.
Comfort is key when spending long hours outdoors. "Make sure you wear comfortable shoes and clothes that can handle being outdoors in the weather," they suggest, adding that a hat is also essential for sun protection.
A fully charged phone is crucial for staying connected with friends and family. "Make sure your phone is fully charged when you arrive," organizers remind attendees.
Given that cell service can be unreliable at times, it’s wise to plan ahead. "Set a meeting place with your friends in case you get separated," they recommend.
Finally, respecting park rules helps maintain a pleasant environment for everyone. "Let’s keep the park clean! Follow the Leave No Trace principles," they urge, emphasizing proper trash disposal and consideration for others.
