The experience you have at a festival will last you a lifetime. The preparation for a festival can seem overwhelming, but it is well worth it for most people. The positivity and impact at each festival is contagious and will stick with you long after the weekend is done. Everyone around you is there for the simple reason of wanting to enjoy music and have a positive experience. Not one person you will meet has the same culture, career, age, or gender, and that is only a part of the beauty a festival curates. Each festival is unique, but these are a few things that will remain consistent throughout each one:
- Dancing
- Laughing
- Sweating
- New friendships
- Meeting people from all over the world
- Seeing many forms of art beyond the music
- Having a new appreciation for life
- A greater sense of community
- Feeling connected
- Missing the experience you just had
