Since I recently attended Vans Warped Tour a few days ago, I thought making a post about things that you can carry and bring with you would be important for anyone who doesn’t know what to bring. Here is a list of things that I packed with me for Warped Tour.
Before Warped Tour, here are the essentials I need to bring with me…
- Sunscreen
- Sharpie- You never know who you’re going to meet
- Bottle of water- Vans Warped Tour allows an attendee to bring in 1 sealed bottle of water
- Hat
- Portable Charger
- Sunglasses
- Backpack
- Band Aids
- Ticket
After Warped Tour, including the variety of things I brought with me, I bought a few extra things and received free things as well. Here is the list of other things I received that day.
- The Gospel Youth’s Always Lose signed
- Dead Reflection by Silverstein
- Shirt from Hope For The Day’s tent that they collaborated with Real Friends.
- Hope For The Day Sticker
- Flag from Movements tent that the band signed during their signing.
- My signed Warped ticket by Too Close To Touch
- Small fan that pluged into my phone
- Backpack from Barnes & Noble (Not available)
- “Animals Are Not Ours” pamphlet that is handed out annually at Warped Tour
- Fossil Wallet
- Sunscreen from CVS
- Core water bottle
- Portable charger (purchased at Marshall’s)
- Essential dachshund bag that held the portable charger

Here is a picture of some of the things I had with me at the end of Warped Tour.
I had a great time at this year’s Vans Warped Tour. When the lineup was announced in March, I was hoping for a few more bands I knew that were performing. From March until Warped Tour in July, I learned a lot about bands and had a great time.
