Your perfect festival outfit is missing one crucial accessory: earplugs. While they might not be the sexiest detail to integrate into your festivities, with high volumes and days-long programming, earplugs are a must for concerts and festivals alike. "Everyone should wear earplugs to concerts, as the majority of concerts are at or above the maximum level for safe listening (generally [around] 90 decibels or higher, given how long most concerts last)," says LA-based AuD Anish Thakkar. Even if you're reluctant in the moment, your future self will thank you.
That said, not all earplugs are created equal - nor are they all designed for live music. To choose the best ones for festivals (versus something like sleep), consider factors like cost, comfort, attenuation (amount of volume reduction), size, and overall aesthetic. Thakkar explains that for festivals or concerts, you'll likely be dealing with flat-cut or filtered earplugs (as opposed to full block earplugs) as these "deliberately allow a vent to send air through a filter, set to allow a specific amount of soundwaves." This means you'll still be able to hear the music, only at a safer level.

In Thakkar's opinion, nothing beats custom-fitted concert or musicians' earplugs. These plugs are "form-fitted to your individual ear canal," and vented with 10dB, 17dB, or 26dB filters for less audio distortion and a better listening experience overall. "Essentially, you can enjoy the concert the way it was meant to be enjoyed, while still protecting your hearing," he says.
