Hula Hoop Girls at Wayhome Music Festival

Are you going to your first music festival and unsure of what to pack? Take a look at my summer festival essentials below!

While you’re concert going:

• Small day bag (backpack, or purse)
  • Portable phone charger
  • Re-usable water bottle
  • Camera
  • Chapstick
  • Hair-ties
  • Hand Sanitizer
  • Bandana- you might be able to score a free one from the sponsored vendors
  • A cheap picnic table cloth or blanket to lay down on
  • Sunscreen- keep re-applying

Camping Must-Haves: I might be listing the obvious but having a list always helps to stay organized!

• Tent + tarp
• Grill +propane (make sure it’s working)
• Cooler
• Soccer ball, frisbee, cards- something to entertain you during your downtime
• Table + fold out chairs
• Sleeping bags + pillows
• Extra garbage bags- you can separate your dirty clothes from your clean ones
• Toliet paper – you’ll thank me later
• FOOD- lots of fruit and veggies, snacks like granola bars that you can bring with you
• Ziploc bags to put snacks in- it makes it easier for bag checks
• Drinks- if you’re of age of course
• Bug Spray
• Lighters

Clothing:

• Flannel + comfy sweater + sweats -it gets really cold at night
• Sandals + sneaks you won’t care if they get really dirty
• Sunnies
• Hat
• Bathing Suit
• Any other festival gear you’d like – but don’t wear your headdress please.

Other fun things to consider: 

• A group Flag- get your friends together and hand paint on cloth or cheap canvas: a good tool incase you get lost
• Spray bottle/water gun
• Bubbles
• Glow sticks
• Hula Hoops

Make sure you have a decent amount of cash on you for the food trucks or merch so you can avoid ATM charges.

Have fun, dance wild, and stay hydrated!
