BASIC TIPS TO ATTENDING COACHELLA FOR THE FIRST TIME
First time attending Coachella? Don’t worry. This article will discuss basic tips that are useful for those of you who first come to Coachella. But before that, for those who don’t know what Coachella is, it’s a big annual music festival held at the Empire Polo Club, Indio, California. The official name is the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and was first held in 1999.
That is quick information about Coachella. Without further ado, here are basic tips that you can do for the first time when attending Coachella.
- Stay Hydrated
This Coachella has an outdoor concept. You will be in a crowd with many people, and you will walk back and forth. Without realizing it, you will very quickly get dehydrated. So, because you will be doing a lot of outdoor activities, make sure you are constantly hydrated by bringing at least two drinking bottles. Also, always refill or buy a new bottle every time you finish one bottle because if you decide to make your way into the heart of the crowds at Coachella’s Main Stage, no one sells water near the stage. So, stay hydrated, guys!
- Don’t forget to bring a power bank
If you have a mini backpack or other places that allow you to keep a power bank, take it with you. This power bank is quite useful later. You will take many photos and videos at music festivals. So, if you are at the festival long enough, your phone will run out of battery because you used it a lot earlier. You don’t want your phone to be out of battery, right? So, make sure to bring a power bank so that your phone battery is in a safe condition.
- Wear comfortable outfits and helpful accessories
Since you are active outdoors and Coachella is also in the middle of the Californian desert, you need comfortable and soft outfits. You can wear Boho Top and Shorts, Flowy Top and Distressed Jeans, or Flowy Top and Shorts for the boys, and for the girls you can wear a Crop Top, Flowy Dress, or Kimono. Then, you can also add accessories such as sunglasses, hats, baseball caps, and scarfs. Those are just some ideas for outfits and accessories that you can use. Of course, there are many more outfits or accessories that you can wear, but always remember to wear comfortable ones.
- Partner Up
When you go to a music festival with your friends, always try to be together. But if you want to split because you want to see other artists perform, you have to partner up, either as two or three people. The important thing is that you don’t be alone. Partnering is not without reason. Many people lose their friends at music festivals and frantically search for them. So, try to stay together, and if you want to split, you have to partner up to avoid bad things.
So those are the basic tips that you can do when you attend Coachella for the first time. These basic tips can also be used when you attend other music festivals. So, if this is your first time attending Coachella, don’t worry, do the basic tips. We hope it helps!
