With summer coming, it’s time for a series of Boston-area concerts, including Coldplay, U2 and Kenny Chesney at Gillette; Billy Joel and Florida Georgia Line at Fenway; and other headliner shows.
If you’re going to a show, take more than your ticket:
- Comfortable shoes – forget style. You’ll be on your feet more than expected.
- Layers – for day-to-night festivities, account for changing weather.
- Fluids – bring or buy ‘em, but stay hydrated with something non-alcoholic.
- Venue knowledge – what’s permissible to bring inside?
Finally, ride-hailing apps like Lyft or Uber are essential — make sure your phone is charged!
