How to score the best tickets? Patience, young Padawan. Tickets usually go on sale a few months before the concert. Be prepared for a virtual battle royale (aka hitting refresh like crazy) when they do.
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.
How to avoid dodgy ticket sellers? Stick to official ticketing websites or reputable resellers. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is.
How to prepare for a concert? Comfortable shoes (dancing is mandatory!), a fully charged phone (for epic concert pics, duh), and maybe some earplugs (depending on the volume).
How to survive a mosh pit? If you don't know what a mosh pit is, maybe avoid it. But if you're feeling adventurous, wear clothes you don't mind getting sweaty in, and be prepared to move with the flow (of sweaty bodies).
How to recover from a concert? Sleep, copious amounts of water, and maybe some ibuprofen for that head-banging headache. You'll be back to rocking out in no time!
So there you have it, Sydney music lovers! With this guide and a little detective work, you'll be the king (or queen) of the concert scene. Now get out there and mosh, sway, or simply tap your foot to the beat of your favourite music!
