Every festival runs on a different currency, whether that's outfits, energy, mud, or good music, and knowing which one fits you saves everyone a miserable weekend.
Coachella runs on being seen, glamorous and social, the kind of place where the outfit is half the actual point.

Glastonbury runs on chaos and character, muddy and free-spirited, less concerned with looking good than feeling something real. Bonnaroo runs on community, laid-back and communal, the kind of crowd that feels like camping with several thousand new friends.
