Essential apps for going to a festival

There are tons of festivals held throughout our country, and there are festivals for all tastes and musical styles. And the best part is that most of them take place during the summer, when we generally have the most free time.

July hosts FIB and Low Festival , August hosts Arenal Sound , Santander Music , and Sonorama , and early September will feature EbroVision , among many others.

Whether you're into rock, indie, pop, electronic music, etc., you've probably already marked your festival on your calendar. Great! And so you can enjoy it to the fullest, take note of these apps and download them to your smartphone. They're sure to get you out of more than one bind!

• Festivals : As we already mentioned in this post , if you're a music festival fanatic and never miss a single one, this comprehensive app is a must-have on your phone. In it, you'll find a list of festivals in both Spain and Portugal, with all the necessary information. The app lets you view a festival's profile with dates, location (located on Google Maps), prices, and updated lineup . You can also receive notifications from your favorite festivals with the latest news and new band additions, as well as search for your favorite bands and artists to find out which festival or festivals they'll be playing at.


• Festival Buddy : Another must-have for festival lovers. As you well know, these events are often held in huge venues where it's easy to get disoriented and even lost. Thanks to this GPS navigation app, you can mark various important points, such as where you parked your car, the location of your tent, the restrooms, or the main stage . The app will guide you to these locations quickly and easily.


• Find My Friends : Losing our group of friends in a crowd is also easy. And although we have WhatsApp these days, it's not always easy to pinpoint our exact location. That's why this app can be very useful when it comes to locating our friends , as it identifies their exact location on a navigation map. It's ideal for keeping track of our group of friends, not only at a festival, but in any large, crowded space: a shopping mall, a museum, a campsite, etc.


• Musixmatch : Going to a concert and not knowing the lyrics is a bummer. That's why we created this app, the best and most comprehensive app for song lyrics. Musixmatch recognizes the song currently playing and shows you the lyrics, so you can sing along instead of pretending to. And of course, it also lets you search for any lyrics you want to discover among a huge catalog.

On the other hand, if what you want is to know the title of that song that is playing and that you like so much, we recommend Shazam .

• Periscope : Without a doubt, this is one of the apps of the moment. It allows us to broadcast and explore the world through live videos . With Periscope, you can live stream everything you're experiencing at the event: every musical performance, the festival atmosphere, etc., sharing your experience with everyone who connects to your broadcast.
