There’s nothing quite like the thrill of seeing your favorite artist live. And after being forced to listen to them only on our headphones and speakers years ago because of *drum roll please* the pandemic, it’s no wonder fans are making up for lost time and catching flights to foreign cities just to catch a show.
But behind every smooth and unforgettable concert night is a well-packed bag. The luggage you bring to the plane is one thing, but the bag that goes with you inside the concert venue is another. You have to make sure you’ve got all the essentials so you can survive weather changes, long lines, and even gadget problems (yes, it happens).

Venues usually have bag size limits, so opt for a small crossbody, a sling bag, or a tote that can carry your essentials. You’d like to trust your bag to be secure even while you’re hands-free and so immersed in your concert experience.
2. If you must bring a backpack, think quick access

Backpacks are usually not ideal in concerts, but if you really must bring one, pick a bag with secure but accessible compartments. You’ll want to grab your phone or tickets in a flash, especially when the lights go down. Just make sure to check with the organizers if they have restrictions about bringing a backpack. There are venues that require transparent backpacks only for security reasons.
3. Prioritize Safety

Choose bags with zippers to keep your items secure in crowded spaces. Bonus if it has anti-theft features like hidden pockets or lockable zippers.
4. Use bag organizers
