This year’s Star Belly Jam Music Festival once again attracted thousands of music lovers who flocked to Crawford Bay for this annual music event. However, this year’s festival is going to be a special experience for me as I will be attending this highly anticipated event for the first time in person to spend an unforgettable weekend with my close friends.

My buddies and I got ready early and arrived at the festival site with our tents, sleeping bags and a happy mood. After setting up our tents, we set out to explore the entire festival area, participating in a variety of fun activities and sampling food. As the sounds of the music echoed through the air, we were gradually brought into the rhythm of the music. I was especially looking forward to the musical performances in the evening, as one of my very favorite musicians would be singing on stage. When the music started, my friends and I danced and cheered together as if we had forgotten the passage of time. At that moment, music and friendship intertwined and became the best memory of the weekend. And of course it was the best time to let go of exhaustion.

In addition to the musical performances, there were many other exciting activities at the festival. We took part in an outdoor yoga class to relax in the nature, and a handicraft workshop to make some small gifts to keep as souvenirs.

On the last day of the festival, we sat around the campfire and shared what we had seen, heard and felt during the festival. Under the starry sky, we strung together this unforgettable weekend with music and friendship.

For me, this Star Belly Jam festival was not only a music event, but also an unforgettable time spent with my friends, a musical journey full of memories.

But before attending the festival, there are a few important things to keep in mind:

1. Prepare your gear: Make sure you bring gear suitable for a music festival, such as tents, sleeping bags, sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, raincoats and comfortable shoes. This gear can help you stay comfortable and safe during the festival.

2. Stay healthy: During the music festival, it is important to stay healthy. Remember to carry enough drinking water with you to avoid heat stroke and dehydration. In addition, eating right, getting enough sleep and proper rest are also key to staying healthy.

3. Protect your hearing: Music at festivals can be very loud, so remember to bring earplugs or earmuffs to protect your hearing from damage. Prolonged exposure to high decibel music may affect your hearing.

4. Take care of valuables: During the festival, take care of your valuables such as cell phones, wallets and keys. It is best to keep these items in a safe place or carry an anti-theft bag with you.

5. Respect others and the environment: Be respectful of others and the environment at the festival. Obey the rules and instructions of the Festival, remain polite and friendly, and share happiness and joy with others. At the same time, take care of the environment, do not dispose of garbage and keep the Music Festival site clean and tidy.

6. Pay attention to safety alerts: During the Music Festival, pay attention to safety alerts and instructions and be ready to respond to emergencies. In case of emergencies, seek assistance from staff and cooperate with their instructions and arrangements.

7. Enjoy the music and the experience:* Most importantly, enjoy the music and the festival experience. Dance and laugh with friends, share joy and friendship with strangers, and create great memories and experiences.
