The best festival clothing is breathable, lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. Popular choices include graphic tank tops, crop tops, shorts and loose tees made from cotton or moisture-wicking blends. However, comfort is only one piece of the equation. Festival fashion is often trendy and not as conservative as everyday wear. The environment is a place for self-expression, so it's best to wear your favorite colors, prints and styles – no matter how "out of the box" they may feel.

Festival fashion trends include retro graphic tees, muscle tanks and sleeveless shirts, cropped t-shirts and tanks, oversized fits and custom accessories like hats and bags. For a stand-out look, mineral and acid wash, as well as tie-dyes, are also popular.

Pack essentials like a sunlight-shielding hat, sunglasses, a lightweight bag or fanny pack, comfortable clothing and a hoodie or flannel for cooler evenings. If the venue gets dusty, we recommend bringing a bandana or gaiter face mask.

Bucket hats, wide-brimmed hats and breathable baseball caps are top picks for festival-goers looking for both sun blockage and style. A good festival hat offers UPF sun protection, breathable fabric and a snug fit. It's always a plus if the hat is somewhat flexible, also known as "unstructured", allowing it to be thrown in a bag without worry of damage. Look for cotton or mesh materials, or moisture-wicking hats, to stay cool in the heat. Hats with a sweatband are also a smart choice to combat inevitable perspiration from all that movin' and groovin'!

Choose lightweight, hands-free options like drawstring backpacks, crossbody bags, or belt bags that are easy to carry and meet venue regulations. Most festivals allow fanny packs, especially clear (PVC) or small-sized ones that comply with security rules. Always check the specific festival's bag policy before arriving at the event. If allowed, compartments are handy for holding sunscreen, water, phone and snacks while keeping your hands free.
