If you live near the venue and you have never attended a concert there before, take time one day to drive by and evaluate the parking situation. Consider searching for a map of the venue online so you can prepare a parking or exit plan. This will come in handy if an emergency arises during the concert.
Once you arrive, pay attention to the exit doors near your seat and plan to meet up with your concert buddies outside that exit if you get separated during an emergency.
Allow enough time to gather at your place or a fellow concert-goer's place for dinner before the event. Doing this can limit overspending on snacks and beverages during the concert.
Wear comfortable jeans with deep pockets. This can eliminate the need for a purse or and save time spent fumbling around looking for tickets or ID.
While this may seem like the perfect tactic for a nonfan who is attending a concert with a spouse or friend, this especially applies to super fans. Protecting your hearing during a concert can help prevent noise-induced hearing loss.
