First time at a music festival. Tips?

Hey everyone!

I have a VIP ticket for Saturday. I bought it pretty last minute because I really wanted to see my favorite artist Lorde but unfortunately I don't have anyone accompanying me. I live in Gothenburg, so getting to and from the festival and finding a place to stay aren't issues.

What I'm mainly looking for are general tips for attending a music festival/concert, especially since I've never been to a festival or a big concert before.

How early should I arrive? How do you get a good spot? Any tips for navigating the crowd, avoiding getting trampled, staying safe etc? And is there anything you wish you'd known before going to your first festival?

I'm honestly quite nervous about going alone, so I'd really appreciate any advice or tips you have even the obvious ones! 😅

Thanks in advance!
