The frequent unpleasant incidents experienced while watching a concert make quite a few people feel worried about going to their idol's performance. As an example of the Ariana Grande concert incident some time ago in Manchester, England. But calm down! Alinear will share tips so that you can still enjoy your idol's stage performance without feeling anxious.
1. Bring personal identification
For mutual security, every concert promoter requires you to bring personal identification, both when exchanging tickets for rubber bracelets or when entering the concert venue. So, don't forget to bring your KTP or passport if you watch a concert abroad.
2. Bring a simple bag
In an emergency, what must be done immediately is to get away as quickly as possible from the scene of the incident. If you bring a backpack to a concert, it's a bad idea. Apart from being difficult, your backpack will also disturb other spectators if you are watching in the festival or standing category. For women, it is better to bring a simple bag, such as a tote bag, sling bag, or maybe a practical, trendy waist bag.

3. Communication tools are always ready
It's so fun to capture your idol's moments on stage, that you don't realize that your cellphone battery is almost dead. Make sure your cellphone doesn't turn off before you finish watching the concert, or at the very least, bring a power bank in case your cellphone battery doesn't last long. This aims to enable you to contact the people closest to you if something unexpected happens.
4. Recognize Emergency Exits
Every concert venue must have at least two doors to exit and two to enter the arena. So, usually, before the concert starts, the promoter will provide information via audio broadcast about the location of the emergency doors. Listen carefully and remember where the emergency exit is.
5. Wear comfortable clothes
Wear flexible, casual clothing when going to a concert. Apart from being comfortable and not making you hot, casual clothes also make it easier for you to move. If you come to a festival concert, shorts with a T-shirt could be the right choice. Meanwhile, if you come to a jazz concert, wear jeans that are comfortable to wear so you can move freely.

6. Report anything suspicious
It is difficult to detect a threat in a crowd, such as a music concert. However, if you do see something suspicious, try to immediately report it to the officers around the venue. Because the suspicious things you see could threaten the safety of many people.
7. Leave immediately if an emergency occurs
During the shooting tragedy in Paris in 2015, several concertgoers were attacked because they chose to hide in a room. Some even pretended to faint. In emergency conditions, this endangers safety. If you have the opportunity to go, go immediately. Find a haven outside the venue. Hopefully, these tips are useful for you!
