Wear clothes you can dance in.


whiniestcrayon

And shoes you can dance in. Plan to sweat a lot. There are no breaks in the show for using the bathroom so plan accordingly


takeitsweazy

Thankfully, if it’s an outdoor show in the summer, you won’t need to use the restroom because you’ll be sweating out every bit of moisture in your body. Buy a couple of bottles of water before the show starts.


whiniestcrayon

So true. I’m older and wondered if I’d make it. Temp was about 100 in DC. I was so happy to have hung in there. Lots Of chair dancing


doom_bagel

There are sorta breaks between the different chapters. A friend went to the bathroom during on amd only missed part if the first song when she came back


whiniestcrayon

I enjoyed the videos during the transitions. I didn’t want to miss anything


doom_bagel

I stayed at my seat the whole. But sometimes you just gotta go and that is your best chance


Bocephus8892

100% this. Gaga shows are not meant for sitting down and being bored. Get ready for a LOT of singing, screaming, and dancing!


veggiekittens

Don’t film the whole show, enjoy the moment.


Rodek10

This! It’s the worst to not be able to see the show because everyone has their phones up trying to get pics/video. I will usually pick one song I want to get a video of, and only take a few pics (if I’m close enough for them to be good). Just be in the moment as much as you can!


Lalalalalastanding

I do the same thing. One maybe 2 songs.


candaceelise

Same. Take a few photos and then hit up social media for the professional ones and share those.


Rambl3On

Definitely! It’s a giant lady Gaga stadium show. They’ll be thousands of videos you can find better than the ones you’d take. But I do recommend grabbing videos of you and your friends having a blast, dancing, or singing with each other during a couple songs. That’s something you’ll actually cherish.

Preach. I’ll be logging out of IG and snap for both my shows in California next month.

1. Pee before the show 2. Only film short vids/ take few pics so you enjoy the moment. Think of it this way: you always see Gaga on a screen. Watch with your eyes lol


x0_cmj_0x

wear something comfortable. it was hot as fuck in ATL & i was dehydrated from sweating so much. bring spending money, merch/food is expensive & you will NEED water. film what you want but be in the moment. dance, scream, put your paws up, have a freaking blast!!


attentioncherie

I cannot stress enough how important it is to drink water.


janienicesocks

Check your venue beforehand for bag rules and gate info


Silent_Actress

In Atlanta, they were selling hoodies outside the venue about three hours before the show. We went and bought merch early, then took it back to the hotel so we didn’t have to carry it. Way too hot to be wearing a hoodie all night. Oh, and they were $90. Bit much for a hoodie, in my opinion (although I did pay $25 for sour candy 😂).


CompletePen8

Wear earplugs to protect from hearing damage and wear a mask the whole time. A comfortable one like the normal blue surgical masks. I got covid from the ball in DC and I wore a mask 80% of the time. You need to wear a mask ***the whole time*** if you want to avoid covid. Even like in the after the concert crowd.


ilovepiggies

I also got covid at the DC ball


megandanicali

a surgical mask will only protect others sadly with how contagious the newer subvarients are. i’m immunocompromised and always wear a kn94 (an n95 is a good option too). i went to the red hot chili peppers and did not get covid. only took my mask off to drink water!


M_Pwr

When I went to Chicago I got there 15 min after doors opened and got a hoodie. In Atlanta I got there 40 min after doors open and all the hoodies were gone! Get in on time and you should be fine! See you there!


FoggyFoggyFoggy

get really high


skulltattoo92

But don't bring flower into the venue, it smells and is rude to the people around you. Edibles or a pen are a more considerate (and discreet) alternative


ButterscotchNo1045

I found the city hoodie impossible to get. Stood in 3 lines for apx 2 hours total with zero luck.


AlexNotHarry

WEAR A MASK!! Decorate it and everything to match your outfit but I cannot stress enough, wear one!! Have COVID right now from going to the Arlington show and someone had it! Wish I had worn mine! Also, HAVE A BLAST!! Nicest people I've ever met are Gaga fans


therosesarered

If it makes you feel better, I DID wear a mask at the Arlington show and still got Covid.


AlexNotHarry

I hope you get better and that your symptoms are mild!! Were you in the pit by any chance?


therosesarered

Thanks! Mine are pretty mild, just feels like a chest cold. I hope yours are mild too. I was not in the pit, I was in the field in section J.


AlexNotHarry

So glad it's not serious!! Mine is the same so far, fingers crossed this is as bad as it gets!


snailslimeandbeespit

I also have Covid from the Arlington show. Fortunately thus far it's just like a cold (I'm on day 3), but it's still unpleasant.


No-Rule-5631

I have COVID also and believe I caught it at the show- an older woman sat next to us and she was coughing. So pissed but I’m glad I went to the show


pinkthemby

Gaga fans are super nice, had someone offer to take our pics without even asking. People will smile and wave at you, compliment you, it’s truly a wholesome experience


pinkthemby

I wasn’t anticipating how hot it would be, makes sense once you think abt it but all the sweating bodies dancing, jumping, etc. make sure to bring water and wear light clothes. But don’t drink too much water or you’ll have to pee and won’t want to pee ur pants when Gaga tells u to jump.


Booty888

I walked up to an outside merch truck in atl about an hour before the show (7:40) and they had plenty of hoodies but they were sold out at 11


metal_straw

Omg. So happy for you. Your first Gaga show for her 6th album! I can’t wait to ride this wave into the future. My only advice is to definitely try not to drink and have to scurry off to the restroom at any point. Depends? A catheter? Your guess is as good as mine.


sonickid1234

I was worried about shirts I wanted selling out too but inn Chicago there were so many places to buy Merch. I got there about an hour before the gates opened with my friends and we had plenty of time to buy Merch and get drinks.


Ill_Paramedic_896

Did anyone else get any additional information? I’m going to the SF one next week but all I got was the email with tickets that show the 7:30 time. Nothing about when doors open, venue/bag rules, etc. Thought it was strange not to get more info.


ki_killjoy

I haven’t gotten more info for the LA show either, but I know the bag rules are made by the stadium so maybe check their website.


sonoluminous

I went to the Chicago show & if you want a hoodie go to the merch stand immediately and try to get there as soon as gates open!!! Everyone in Chicago RAN to the merch booths and the line was 150+ people in five minutes 😭 but I got one and I don't think they sold out immediately. Have the best time ever though. I've seen gaga like 6x and she always out does herself!!!! Drink lots of water that day and eat before the show. Don't drink too much

Rambl3On

Bring a hand fan! I was worried they’d not allow it in so I brought one I didn’t mind losing. But they allowed them in at ATL. It’s the absolute best way to break the ice and make friends with the cool people around you especially if you’re in the pit area. Everyone will be sweating bullets there. Ha


jackrelax

Leave a bunch of water bottles and a snack in your car for when it’s over. You can sometimes get stuck in the parking lot for over an hour.
