Mateo’s Five “Must’s” of Boise Music Festival

Ok, this is a basic one but I'm just going to be real with you right now: drink water. It's not supposed to be as hot as it has been in years' past however--being in that dry Idaho sun will get you. Listen, last year I soaked up too much sun, not enough water, and by the time the after party started...lets just say 1 shot was TOO MANY. Look out for yourself.

There are SO MANY awesome vendors at Boise Music Festival, you've got to check them all out. Just do a walk through the fairgrounds...many of them are locally owned!  There will even be virtual reality games ( I highly recommend you try these) inside the Expo center.

Let loose and jump under that giant fire hose of cold water in the middle of the concert field. You'll feel like you're a kid again and yes, it's refreshing.

Look, we've all got our favorite artists at BMF but here's one thing I've learned: you just never know which one of these main stage artists will do something crazy or put on an awesome show. It happens once a year...catch all the headliners.

Bring your friends. Soak it up. Take lots of pictures. There's nothing worse than realizing you guys didn't all take a picture or boomerang your friend that's had a few beverages...we put this show on FOR YOU. ENJOY IT.
