15 ITEMS I NEVER GO TO A MUSIC FESTIVAL WITHOUT [FESITVAL ESSENTIALS]

- Wanted to get back to my roots and share some festival tips and advice by remaking one of my first videos on what to pack in your bag for a music festival. I wanted to try and steer away from the obvious phone, wallet, ID, hydration pack and get into the more uncommon items that I always bring to a festival in my bag and why I swear by them.
1. Flashlight - For navigating the festival, campgrounds & bathrooms, maneuvering through the crowd, locating dropped items, use as a beacon to keep/ find the squad
2. Extra bottle caps for the festivals that give you bottled drinks without the cap! Use the extra caps to seal and store your water throughout the day to make it last longer and not spend as much money.
3. Portable Chargers - I advise getting small, flat compact chargers with multiple charging outputs (USB, USB-C, Micro USB). Bonus point if they have charging cables built into the charger!
4. Short Multi-Port Charging Cable - Reduce clutter a in your bag and stress on packing by bringing one small wire that can charge several things at once. A shorter/ smaller wire allows for more space and organization in your bag and less things to have to remember to pack and worry about.
5. Compact Rechargeable Fans - Stay cool and comfortable while also conserving space in your bag by using a compact portable fan that can be charged using your portable charger. Rather than exerting energy to keep you cool with a clacking fan, just press a button and hold the fan in front of you as needed.
6. Sunglasses - Sure, they may help you look cool, BUT THEY ACTUALLY SERVE A PURPOSE. You do not want to get a headache/migraine from squinting all day in an attempt to keep the sun out of your eyes. You also don't want to have your hand to your forehead constantly trying to create a visor to block the sun. Preserve the strain on your eyes by wearing sunglasses in the early hours of the day.
7. A Hat - The more protection you have from the sun, THE BETTER! Let your eyes relax and enjoy the festival to your fullest potentially. Additionally a hat can give you peace of mind on your appearance as you tromp around in the heat and humidity taking dozens of photos with your friends! Look good, feel good!
8. Pashminas are a multifunctional tool at a festival! They can be used to keep yourself warm in a variety of ways without having to bring warm clothing like a hoodie or beanie. They can be used to lay out on the grass with the squad for those super chill sets/moments. They can be used to shield yourself from things you don't want people to see and they are commonly used as comfort blankets when the festival gets overwhelming.
9. Ear Plugs - PROTECT YOUR HEARING! The last thing you want (aside from Tinnitus) is to be dreading a fire set because the volume and bass is unbearable!. Better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them!
10. Deodorant / Body Spray - It's not only for you but for everyone around you! The last thing you want is to be raging and smelling your own or someone else's B.O. Lets keep ourselves and these crowds less musty and more fresh.
11. Baby Wipes - Smaller and more convenient to store in your bag than a roll of toilet paper when the porta-potties run out. No need to go on a hunt or wait in the longest line for the one porta-potty that still has toilet paper. Additionally, wipes can be useful and helpful for sanitizing certain areas of the bathrooms to make them (feel) less gross. Plus baby wipes will make you feel like a new person after a quick wipe down of your hands, arms and face at those more dusty festivals.
12. Cone Case- The cone case will you give you peace of mind that your pre-rolls are safe and ready to endure all the festival elements. Whether your bag gets soaked from the rain, or you needed to stash them in your shoe to get past security, the cone case will ensure that your cones are maintained, safe and pristine for when it comes time to enjoy. Plus the engineering of the design makes it easier to conceal and store.
13. Business Cards/ Stickers- If you have something you are trying to promote in the EDM/Festival space, Business cards and stickers are one of the best ways to do it. If you think someone is going to remember your name, Instagram or website in the midst of all the craziness going on, think again. You'll be lucky if the person you're talking to can even actually hear you! Use business card/ stickers as a way to remind and show people what you do when they come across that card/sticker after the festival.

only a wook would think to bring bottle caps lol, quality
i’m not a wook & i’ve thought of this too lmao. also i crush up water bottles and put it underneath all the shit in my backpack for fests (insomniac) who only sell canned water💀💀😭
@@babybear-wo4vl we do what we gotta do
@@zSpindler i went to rampage last weekend, my friend had k & wanted to do a bump but had no key. someone had given me a glow stick & i took it off & gave it to him, thinking he could use the connected part on the glow stick that attaches each side together as a key💀😭😭😭 he ended up using that for the rest of the night lmfaoo
@@babybear-wo4vl that's awesome 🤣
This is genius!! I usually tip really well early in the day and just ask for the cap, but Im definitely going to do this next time
the bottle cap thing is amazing bro
(also plz do a vid on your sneaker collection)
A couple of years back I spent a whole set tinkering around with debris I found on the ground and other water bottles trying to allow me to put the $8 worth of water bottles I bought into my cargo pockets without spilling. I wound up just filling them from the sink( that only dispensed hot water) and leaving them in the smoking section to cool down. The next night we brought in caps for our bottles, problem solved. Pro level tip if you know what kind of bottles are provided.
Hey nice hoodie! I have it and love it!
you doing FBK this year bro? ran into you in the pit last year lmao
i love pashminas, it was 90 degrees as we waited in line for food and 2 people held it over our heads as shade and the 2 others stood under it, at least a 10 degree differencee😂
Tomorrow is my packing day for a festival, perfectly timed video :D
Ubbi Dubbi perhaps??
16:34, although I'm on the spectrum and have always worn earplugs because I just can't handle the loud speakers without them, I always wonder why people blast bass music or hip hop as loud as possible in their cars or never wear earplugs at concerts like these. It WILL destroy your hearing over time, and it is something you WILL regret, not even debatable. Tinnitus is awful.
“Ma, FF dropped a new tips video!!”
Always fun to see what other people recommend, thanks for the video!
For the bros, Dude Wipes are clutch
Saw a bundle at sams for the low recently.
Pashmina's are clutch. Not only can they help keep you warm or act as a blanket as you mentioned, they can keep the sun off your head, neck, or arms during the day and reduce your sunburn risks; they can act as a towel to wipe dirt, crumbs, or sweat off; they are an obvious option for a fashion accessory and can be used in a pinch as a substitute for a fidget toy, a flow toy, a satchel, a pillow, a fan, or really anything you can use some cloth for.
Used it for the sun at FK. So clutch
Lolla says no blankets or towels. Will they let in pashminas?
@@emilysicking5613 im sure. They’re more like scarves than a blanket
Another good tip I learned was to put the pashmina in your cooler in ice water to wear it later and keep you cool. It also is nice to wear under a hat and have the pashmina keep you cool that way.
Compression shorts & anti chafe stick
Mentioned in my “10 Unique Music Festival Tips” Video! Link in description 👌🏼
deodorant wipes, sunscreen, reusable plastic bottle for water, liquid iv packs for extra hydration
Instead of the caps maybe try collapsible water bottles. Pour it in and put it in your pocket when done
bottle caps are genius, havent been a festival yet but for my first im absolutely bringing some
Sorry but the flashlight in the mosh pits get annoying
Not being able to see is more annoying lol
are you going to react to the new FK Phase 2???
Those bigger clip on fans are a game changer. I didn't want to shut them off at Big Dub last year when I used yours lol
Its about the right time to be preparing for bonnaroo so you coming this year?
Fuck yea, love when you make this kind of content 👌🏽
I love all your videos but theses festival tips is how I found you back in the day before my 1st lost lands send
Thank you for your list sir. Your ear plug mention was brilliant. My neighborhood in Detroit is the place that the techno genre of music was invented. I wish you would told me years ago. Lol
Might be weird, but i have practiced being able to hold my breath for 1:30-2 mins, just so i dont breathe in the fumes and literal shit in the porta potties. I just get so grossed out breathing in those things
Thank you!
Yerr for life✌🏻
I thanked you for telling me to bring a headlamp at elements so hearing you talk about the flashlight first made me laugh. You aren’t wrong! It gets so dark!
Ive lost so many ear plugs in the pit. I finally got a tether that strings them together and I havent lost a pair since. 🙌
Just in time for Ubbi Dubbi lets gooooo. I first found ur channel when i was looking up festivals essentials for my first camping fest in 2021. Keep it up u da man, man
Heayyyyyyyy I be there this weekend 🤘🍄
Thanks for the stickers at glow!
Yurrrrrrrrrr Da 🐐
awesome!!!
I'm so angry at RUclips for not recommending this channel to me sooner. Amazingly detailed list. This is exactly what I was looking for! Both to send to the newbie ravers, and to learn from myself! I've been going to festivals for 2 years and never thought to bring flashlights and baby wipes. It seems so obvious now XD.
Also, thanks for writing out the entire list (with notes!) in the description so we could check the list in a pinch. Not many creators on here would think to do that. ✌🏻🫶🏻🤝🏻🙏🏻
Intro is so fire 🔥🔥🔥
