July through the end of the year is basically concert season. From festivals like Prambanan Jazz, Pestapora, Synchronize, intimate showcases, to international concerts that send the timeline into chaos the moment they're announced.
And after all the ticket war drama that drains your energy and sanity… don't let yourself end up not enjoying the actual day just because of small things that could've been prepared from the start.
So, to make your concert experience as good as it can be, here's the essential starter pack before you head out!
1. An Outfit That's Comfortable But Still Looks Good
A concert isn't just about taking photos — it's also about being ready to stand, walk, queue, and sing for hours. So the outfit you choose will seriously affect your mood throughout the concert.
Don't let a few songs in and you're already uncomfortable because of the wrong outfit or shoes. You can still look great for content and photos, but try to choose an outfit that's comfortable to wear all day.
Because trust me, when the music starts playing, what matters most is that you can enjoy it without constantly fixing your outfit.
2. A Fully Charged Powerbank
This one is already in the must-bring category. From scanning your ticket, checking your seat, filming your favorite song, updating your story, to coordinating with friends at the venue — everything needs your phone. And concerts are the type of event that drains your battery super fast. On top of that, a crowded signal usually makes your phone work even harder. So before you leave, make sure your powerbank is fully charged and your charging cable isn't left behind.
Because nothing hurts more than your phone dying right when your favorite song is being performed.
