2018 Music Festival Season

Festival season has begun! Last year, we were both fortunate enough to attend Coachella, Governors Ball (Kastania attended for one day), LIVE 105’s BFD, BottleRock, FYF Fest, Lollapalooza (Angeline attended for the first time!), and Outside Lands. We're stoked to see what this year's festival season has to offer. Check out the fliers for all the lineups below and scroll to see our tips to prepare for any festival.

*A few other festivals that have yet to be announced but that we’re keeping an eye out for are:

Coachella 2017

• Life is Beautiful

• Austin City Limits

As we continue to attend festivals new and old, we’ve learned quite a bit. Here are our top 3 tips to be prepared for any festival:

1. Peep the lineup and festival map before the festival so you know who you wanna see and where they’re gonna be

2. We get you want to look fly, but know the weather and ALWAYS wear comfy shoes 

3. It’s the goddamn 21st century! Don’t forget your portable charger and charger cable to juice up your phone throughout the day.

We've got #FOMO for sure for missing out on Coachella this year, but there are a ton more festivals this season that we can't wait to attend. Stay safe and hydrated out there!
