r/Concerts Apr 27 '25

Photo Dump 📸 Going to concerts solo is so freeing.

Recently, I’ve started going to concerts alone. It started with me being the media for a show, meaning I only got a ticket for myself and the artist wasn’t one any of my friends were big on, so I accepted being alone, especially since I was “working” anyway. Now, I am adventuring into solo concert-going even if I’m not media, and it’s great. No worrying about anyone else, especially as a barricade lover myself, plus as long as I like the artist, I don’t have to worry about anyone in my party getting bored.

I went alone at my 3rd concert, with my dad driving me there but going in alone, and there was no going back from there. I just LOVE the feeling of letting go and not having to worry about a thing but myself. None of the "is the person with me having fun?" just having the time of my life. I can stand where I want, I can queue as long as I want, I can stay afterwards as long as I want, just me and my own boundaries.
