How to get ready for the festival season!

Ahh festivals are fun, right? Spend time outside, see beautiful exhibitions, hear your favorite artists perform; all surrounded by beautiful people… What could be better? As you know, at OOYA, we love the festival season! That's why we've prepared a list of things to do before and during a festival to have the best experience possible! 🎉

Have a good rest

A festival can be very demanding, both physically and psychologically. So it's super important to take the time to rest so you arrive with as much energy as possible and can enjoy it to the fullest! Psst, if you're sleep-deprived, take an OOYA ;)

Look at the rules and instructions in advance

To have the best possible experience, it's important to familiarize yourself with the festival rules before you go. That way, you won't have any unwanted surprises when you arrive on site.

Get to know the site

At the biggest festivals, the cellular network often fails to connect, making communication with your friends much more complicated. By looking at the map before you get to the festival, you can already give yourself meeting points, see where security is, where the clinic is, and so on.

Prepare your itinerary

Study the festival program and make a plan for the artists you and your friends most want to see. Note down the times and stages where they'll be performing, so you won't miss your favourite performances!

Dress comfortably

We all know that, as the years go by, festivals become a great opportunity to show off your best outfit. It's always fun when you like what you're wearing, but at events like these, comfort is extremely important. Festivals can last for hours or even days. So you'll be on your feet, walking a lot and potentially in a big crowd. By choosing comfortable clothes, you'll reduce fatigue and be able to enjoy the event without being bothered by uncomfortable outfits. Dress comfortably to enjoy the music, the activities and the day!

Prepare your backpack

Your backpack will quickly become your BFF during the festival, so make sure you pack the essentials in it. For example, an empty water bottle, a rechargeable phone battery, sunscreen, and sunglasses are important items to have. We also recommend bringing a small bag that won't take up too much space in the crowd!

Get ready to have fun

Finally, remember that the festival is an opportunity to have fun and enjoy the experience. Get ready to meet new people, experience live music, immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere, and create unforgettable memories!
