Tips for a Smooth Concert Experience
- Plan Your Arrival: Aim to arrive early to find parking, navigate crowds, and find your seats without rushing. Better yet? Have a loved one drop you off and pick you up in a designated spot.
- Set a Meeting Point: In case anyone gets lost, establish a meeting point both inside and outside the venue.
- Stay Charged: Keep your phone in low power mode to conserve battery life throughout the event.
- Pack Lightly: Only bring what you need to avoid managing too many items during the concert.
- Buy Merch Beforehand: If you don’t want to wait in line, it’s a good idea to buy merch beforehand.
- Go to the bathroom during the opener: It’s your best chance of not having to leave during the performance for a bathroom break.
- Stay Hydrated: Concert venues can be warm and crowded. Remind everyone to drink water throughout the event to stay hydrated.
- Venue Map: Familiarize yourself with the venue layout in advance, noting exits, restrooms, and first aid stations.
- Contact Venue for Special Accommodations: If anyone in your family needs special accommodations, contact the venue ahead of time to arrange these.
- Plan Your Exit: Venues can be chaotic post-concert. Decide whether to leave a few minutes early to avoid the rush or wait until the crowd disperses.

Kid-Friendly Seating
1. Sightlines: Look for seats that offer a clear view of the stage without obstructions. For families with younger children, consider seats that are slightly elevated (such as the first row of a section behind the floor) to help them see over the crowd.
2. Proximity to Amenities: Consider choosing seats that are near venue amenities such as restrooms and concession stands. This can make it easier to take quick breaks without missing too much of the concert. Aisle seats are particularly beneficial as they allow for easier exits and entrances.
3. Noise Levels: While concerts are inherently loud, certain areas of a venue can be louder than others. Seats further from the speakers might be preferable for younger audience members to help protect their hearing, even if you’re bringing ear protection.
4. Budget: The cost of tickets can vary widely based on their location within the venue. Balancing a good view with what’s affordable for your family is crucial. Sometimes, opting for seats a little further back can provide a more budget-friendly way to enjoy the show without compromising too much on the experience.
Tips for Selecting the Best Seats
- Use Seating Charts: Most ticket purchasing sites provide a seating chart, some with photos of the view your seats will have. Use it to understand the layout of the venue and where your potential seats will be in relation to the stage.
- Read Reviews: Look up reviews of the venue to see if other families have shared insights on the best seating options for children.
- Consider the Stage Setup: Some concerts have unique stage setups, such as catwalks or secondary stages, that might influence where you want to sit for the best experience. For the ‘We’ll All Be Here Forever’ Tour, you can expect a simple stage set up similar to the Stick Season Tour.
