7 Music Festivals You Don't Want To Miss This Summer

The only thing you should be spending your mom's money on this summer are these worthwhile festivals. Not only may you cross paths with famous trendsetters and celebrities, you will be in the presence of several talented artists and plenty of people to have a thrilling experience with. These are festivals you'll want to share with your best friends, new friends, and the singers themselves. Make sure to take a mental picture in the middle of all the IG posts, snaps, and tweets!

This Las Vegas style festival isn't only a great way to experience the city, but also the most cost-effective (I'm talking to all you broke college kids). If you would rather lounge in a pool party right next to the DJ than stand for hours on end, this is the festival for you.

2. Lollapalooza

From Bruno Mars to ODESZA, this festival rounds up artists from different genres of music who give the performance of a lifetime. Spend anywhere from 1-4 nights in Chicago, Illinois with your best friends- exploring the bean, supporting non-profit and political musicians, and making endless memories.

3. Coachella

If you're obsessed with the life of influencers, celebrities, and trendsetters like myself, I'd recommend making an appearance at this festival. As it's near the top of my bucket list, it brings constant flutter of discussion on the musicians and music to liven up the experience. And while you're in California, soak up the sun and visit a beach!

4. Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC)

This gathering hosted in Las Vegas has a little bit of everything for you adventure seekers out there. Enjoy delicious food and drinks, great music, and an amazing art market while attending EDC. And hey, if you got to bring your younger siblings along, they have a family area! This festival has something for everyone, including the king of alternative, Hozier (my love).

5. Ultra Music Festival

In the state of the sweetest oranges lies a festival meant for real ravers of our century. This ultimate event brings together fans of electronic music from all over the globe. The streets of Miami, Florida are packed and pumping with live and ear-bursting music. If you want to be a part of that hype, I encourage you to book your tickets now!

6. Electric Zoo

Another electric dance festival, but with a spin on the creation behind Mysteryland, Tomorrowland, and Sensation is what this festival brings to the table. This utopia-like event gathers all dance fans for an experience like no other in Randall's Park, New York. Take a trip to the Big Apple, shop until you drop (yes, ladies), and take a passionate trip into the magic of the zoo.

7. Faster Horses

In Brooklyn, Michigan, there is a festival just for all you country lovers. Enjoy the likes of camping, drinking, and slapping those bloodsuckers off your arms all weekend. Even if you are the person who enjoys one country song and one country song only (this is me and I am not proud of this), this festival will not disappoint. Take a chance on the genre you have never loved and have the time of your life.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
