Hulaween Takeaways: Hydration, Drug Pacing, Crowd Etiquette

Quick reminders from the floor

After this year’s Hulaween, veteran festivalgoers shared a handful of blunt, practical reminders that should be on every attendee’s checklist next season. Short, memorable and useful — here’s what the crowd was saying.

  • Bring serious hydration — CamelPaks got a lot of praise. Relying only on bottled water can leave you waiting in lines or dehydrated; a refillable pack keeps water on you all day and night.
  • Pace substances — Jumping hard on night one (multiple doses of MDMA, for example) can wreck your serotonin and the rest of your weekend. Plan your dosing and give your body a chance to recover.
  • Respect crowd space — Throwing down blankets in the middle of a packed mainstage can make things unsafe and miserable for others. If you need room to sit or stretch, move toward the back or the perimeters.
  • Try other genres — Festivals are about variety. Not every set will be bass-heavy for a reason — check out unfamiliar stages and give different acts a chance; you might be surprised.

Small changes — bringing a hydration pack, pacing your night, leaving space for others, and being open-minded about the bill — go a long way toward keeping the vibe positive. Hulaween delivered big moments this year; next year will be smoother if more of us follow these basics.
