Where are you going?
It's good to first think about where you want to go. The Festival Gift Card agenda can then help you. You'll see which events and festivals are taking place where and when, and then it's up to you to make your choice. Take your time to make your choice; this is truly a moment you will look forward to.
What do you take to your festival?
You've received your Festival Gift Card and now it's time to spend it. You know where you want to go, and now you just need to figure out what to take with you. If you're going to a festival in the summer, you'll naturally go for a hip and smart festival outfit. Think about sunglasses, a cap or hat so you don't burn too quickly, and of course, sunscreen! Light clothing is nice, and something airy so you can dance without getting too hot or sweaty too quickly.
Don't forget the sunscreen!
In summer it can get very hot, especially in an open field with lots of people. The sun burns intensely, so it's important to protect your skin properly. Take small tubes of sunscreen with you, preferably with a high SPF. These are easy to carry and you don't have to lug around a big bag of stuff!
Drink water!
Make sure you keep drinking enough water! Drinking less alcohol is also important. At the festival itself, there are often extra water points available, so you can get water whenever you want! Also seek out shade in time so you can cool down and get out of the sun. Often, extra shady areas are set up!
Eat regularly
Even if it's hot and you're not hungry, keep eating healthily, varied, and regularly. Chips are delicious, of course, but having a healthy sandwich in between is good too. See what's available, but make sure you don't just eat greasy food, no matter how tasty it is. Your body definitely needs good nutrients, especially in the heat!
And otherwise, just go ahead and enjoy the festival you've chosen. Drink plenty of water, eat on time, apply sunscreen properly, and seek shade in time, and it will become a wonderful evening.
