Don’t forget to bring your tickets!

Let’s say you’ve secured your ticket in the ticket queue, but on the day itself, you forget them. That would be a total concert bummer! Before the concert itself, safeguard your ticket. If it’s an e-ticket, save a screenshot on your phone. For physical tickets, print them out days before the concert. Then, place them alongside the things you’ll need for the show. 

Wear something comfortable and stylish

Be stylish yet comfortable in attending your first concert. Mix and match styles and colors that can last you for the evening. There are so many band shirts, Korean-inspired outfits, laidback or peppy fits, and more styles to choose from! Style according to the venue and artist, and of course, comfort. 

Keep yourself hydrated!

Singing at the top of your lungs can dehydrate you. However, most concert venues confiscate food and drinks or don’t allow them inside. But don’t worry. There will always be food stalls available inside the venue. Before the concert, buy yourself a water bottle to keep you hydrated now and then.

Enjoy your fangirl/boy moment!

At the concert, forget about holding back. Just let yourself enjoy. Sing to the lyrics, allow your body to jive to the rhythm,  and enjoy the music. A timid audience is the worst thing ever! Despite how weary you may be, have fun and avoid just standing in the crowd.  

Take photos and buy souvenirs!

Attending your first-ever concert is a dream. You’ll want to remember this moment, right? Our tip is to take before, during, and after concert photos! Whether it’s a photo of you, the stage, or the artist, these photos can mark a very remarkable moment in your life. Souvenirs are also good memorabilia to consider with the sentimental value they have. It will forever be an iconic concert memory!

Seize the moment!

It can be intimidating to attend a concert for the first time, especially if you don’t know what to anticipate. Now that you know what to expect, prepare yourself and have the best time of your life! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Make sure to have no regrets about this moment in the future!
