Festival Style Outfit Ideas, Checklist and Survival Guide

Summer Festival Outfit Ideas, Checklist & Survival Guide

Anyone else excited for music festivals this year? I’ve got you covered with my favorite festival style outfit ideas, a survival guide & checklist!

Festival Style Outfit Ideas

There are so many fun reasons to head to a music festival. Maybe you’re excited for the lineup, love hanging out with friends, or just can’t get enough food and fashion. Whatever your reason is, figuring out what to wear can be tricky. My top recommendation is to wear pieces that are comfortable, practical & still stylish.

Festivals are the perfect time to try a new, edgier style that you might not normally wear. Maybe it’s incorporating a fun pair of sunglasses, new hat or even a bold print. There are so many festivals scheduled for this spring & summer, you’ll have a ton of opportunities to try out the perfect look.

Be sure to take into consideration the weather & conditions. Most music festivals are outdoors, so you’ll want to take the temperature & terrain into consideration.

Festival Survival Guide & Checklist

  1. Research & Plan: Music festivals are all so different. So it’s important to do your research! You’ll want to take things into consideration like the location, music genre(s), price, time of year, how well established it is, the type of crowd it attracts, places to stay nearby and transportation, etc.
  2. Pick a Good Group: I think it’s helpful to pick a group of friends to go with that are on the same page. You’ll want to make sure they have the same mindset for the experience, are trustworthy & reliable, etc.
  3. Budget: Festivals can be expensive. In addition to the ticket price, be sure to budget for lodging, transportation, food, water, merch, VIP expereinces, etc.
  4. Navigation: I recommend downloading a map to your phone of the festival. Apps & maps can be hard to use when everyone else is using their phones in the area and service is spotty.
  5. Write Things Down: Old school! Just in case your phone dies or you lose something. Write down key information and keep it in your bag. Think: important phone numbers, the address where you’re saying, transportation information, etc.
  6. Self-Care: First of all, stay hydrated! Don’t forget to reapply sunscreen. Eat enough food. Make smart choices when it comes to drinking/partying. Be safe!
  7. Leave Valuables at Home: You’re going to be in a crowd of thousands of people. Leave important or expensive items at home.
