Immense anxiety about going to my first music festival (Decadence)

-

Hey y’all. So my friends convinced to buy tickets for Decadence several weeks ago, and I bought them cuz it seemed fun and exciting. I’ve never been to a rave type of thing before, and I love EDM, so I figured why not. Now all of a sudden I’m feeling incredibly anxious and the thought of attending the festival in general is starting to fill me with dread.

I think with the new COVID variant (Omicron wasn’t a thing at the time), the Astroworld disaster, and just general fears I have of weapons and whatnot…I’m terrified. I think the fact that I have no idea what events like Decadence are like (like what’s the layout?? how crowded is it?? how much do they check to make sure patrons don’t bring in anything dangerous??), and me being an anxious person in general doesn’t help me at all. I’m also kinda “boring” in that I don’t drink/do drugs/etc. so I worry about feeling out of place.

Does anyone have any words of advice? Is there anything I should know in general about being safe before going? How crowded is it in general? Thanks.

Edit: I’m a 25F, not sure if that matters

It also opened my eyes to how boring my daily apparel and style is. I've already ordered some harem pants from harempants.com and they're fantastic (wearing them now!). I've put together a small list of psychedelic/EDM/hippie inspired clothing shops. Just wondering if anyone can give me input into the quality of some of these goods? Can anyone recommend other good places to look? I will share my limited experience below as well: https://www.harempants.com/ - Ordered the "Traditional Prints Thai Hill Tribe Fabric Men's Harem Pants with Ankle Straps" and "Pinstripe Cotton Low Cut Men's Harem Pants with Elephant Trim in Brown" for myself. INCREDIBLY satisfied, especially considering how insanely cheap these are. Highly recommended, but may not fit b...

How to get weed past sniffer dogs?

Going to a festival soon where they’ve introduced sniffer dogs due to increased spiking of girls. All I want is a few joints past, and was thinking of just Cling filming them, but any advice? submitted by /u/Nonchalant_Calypso [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/festivals/comments/qhwsp1/how_to_get_weed_past_sniffer_dogs/
