We share real stories from festivals like BottleRock and Lollapalooza, plus practical festival survival tips to help you navigate packed crowds with grace. Whether you’re a first-timer or seasoned pro, learn how to create good vibes, avoid eye rolls, and be the festival friend everyone wants nearby.

Outside Lands is next weekend (!!) and we’ve got your back. This episode is for all the first-timers—we answer your questions about what to wear, how to plan your day, and what to expect. We’re also introducing a new segment: Festival News, where we cover the Tomorrowland stage fire, the heartbreaking loss of a festival-goer, and updates from Bonnaroo. Plus, Sunny and Clark are going to Outside Lands, so stay tuned for some live updates next week 👀

Festival transportation can seriously shape your weekend, especially when it comes to getting in and out.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to plan your arrival and exit so you’re not stuck in a sea of people, lost in a parking lot, or paying $90 for an Uber that never shows up. We cover what to consider before you go, how to keep your Festie's crew connected, and why just a little planning can save a lot of stress.

We’ve made the mistakes so you don’t have to.
