Tips on how to enjoy music to the max in Seville
To make your concert and festival experience even better, check out these LOCK & enjoy! tips. Take note!
- Plan ahead. There’s a lot to see and do at festivals and gigs, so it’s a good idea to plan when your favourite artists will hit the stage so you can manage your time better. When you’ve got it worked out, put your schedule as the background on your phone so you’ll have it at hand at all times!
- Choose a meeting point beforehand. Going to the concert with friends? Then decide on the meeting point. Remember that there might not be phone coverage or you might run out of battery. So, the smartest thing would be to agree on somewhere to meet. But choose somewhere that isn’t crowded, otherwise you won’t find each other.
- Bring only the basics. There’s nothing better than travelling light so you can dance, jump and enjoy yourself with complete peace of mind. We recommend a small rucksack or bum bag for your essentials: mobile, wallet, tissues and sun cream. You can leave the rest of your belongings in a luggage storage locker in Seville. With extremely practical spaces where you can store your suitcase with complete peace of mind. These are located in strategic areas around the city, so, if need be, you can go pick something up quickly.
- Stay hydrated. Dancing, jumping, standing for hours on end and the heat cause considerable physical strain. Don’t forget to hydrate frequently so you can keep going for longer.
- Sun cream. This city is renowned for its brilliant sunshine. Protect yourself from the sun’s rays whether you’re here to do a spot of sightseeing or for the open-air festivals. As well as putting on sun cream, you should also wear sunglasses and a hat.
