Where do you begin?
Although every festival is different, there are certain things that are essential to know to get you festival-ready in Tokyo. I’m here to save you the time and stress by giving you all of the suggestions and recommendations so you’ll be ready to rock this festival season!
First and foremost, here are some packing essentials that will get you through the day:
1 – Water
Staying hydrated is a holy grail when it comes to music festivals. Japan is very hot and humid, which means the last thing you want is to be dehydrated.
*Note: you can be eco-friendly by bringing a re-usable water bottle and fill it up when needed.
2 – Sunscreen
As I mentioned before, Japan is very hot during summer months. At Ultra, you will constantly be exposed to the sun during the day so it’s important to protect your skin. Apply, apply, and reapply!
3 – Portable Charger
Bringing one of these is a MUST! Being outside all day/night makes it hard to get an opportunity to charge your phone, or device. Be sure to carry one of these on you so you’re ready to take all of the cool photos, selfies, and video footage without worrying about battery life.
4 – Identification/Passport
At Ultra, you must show a valid photo ID to enter the festival. What is considered an acceptable form of a valid photo ID?
- Driver’s license
- Passport
- Social Security Card
- Basic Resident Registration Card
- Special Permanent Resident Certificate
- Alien Registration Card
5 – Bags/Fanny Packs
Money, lip balm, sunscreen, gum, glitter, sunglasses, wet wipes… etc.
Being prepared for a music festival in Japan means having items you have to keep track of. An easy way to do this, is to invest in a small bag or fanny pack.
Don’t worry, it’s not going to ruin your vibey look or your wallet. There are plenty of cute, affordable bags to check out!
*Note: Music Festivals in Japan usually have a bag policy, however, they offer locker storage before entering the venue.
6 – Rain Coat
Rain or shine, the festival must go on! So, what if it rains?
Step 1: Don’t panic!
Step 2: There are plenty of fashionable raincoats to keep your festival look on point.
