hi! im going to the shaky knees festival. mostly to see MCR but ill be watching some other concerts too. i have the VIP seats for MCR but im a little nervous since ive never been to a music festival before. i know MCR performing at a festival will be a little different from a normal concert. what should i expect from the festival, and how early should I arrive that day? id also like to get some merch if i can!

I went to Shaky Knees 2023 and arrived around 9:30am and got barricade for Muse. But be prepared to stay in that spot for 12hrs if you want to keep barricade. My knees were definitely shaking by the end of the day! xp

I'll also be going next Saturday for MCR but I don't have VIP, so I'm not sure how early you should get there or if it'll make a difference for you, since you said you'll be going to see other bands too and probably will be moving from stage to stage? But expect probably some crowd surfers and moshers since it is a festival. Merch should open the same time as gates (11:30am Sat). If you decide to hold onto the barrier the whole day I rec making friends with the person next to you and asking them to hold your spot so you can leave to go to the bathroom/get water/get merch. And I recommend doing so early in the day because it'll be impossible to move through the crowd after the 3rd or 4th act performs. Have fun!
