Concerts and music festivals aren’t exactly known for being cheap. That being said, if you’re interested in attending any concerts or festivals, you may want to start saving up. Here are some tactics for saving money that anyone can follow through on.

• Make a budget

This may be a tale as old as time, but it’s successful. Take a hard look at how much money you make at your job each month and set aside $20 here and there to devote toward your concert fund. It’ll add up eventually and you most likely won’t even notice it’s gone.

• Take friends with you

Having more people involved means almost all of the expenses can be split multiple ways. If you go with a group of friends, you can split the cost of gas, food, possible hotel stays, etc. The only thing that you should really have to pay full price for is your concert tickets.

• Download an app

There are apps out there like Money Box that will let you track your savings goals, so if you’re someone who needs to see where you’re at in a visual way, this may be helpful for you. Just go to the app store on your phone and search for “money savers” or just “money,” and you’ll be presented with a plethora of apps that can help you achieve your goal.

• Store away your $1 and $5 bills

In the grand scheme of things, $1 and $5 bills are rather insignificant. Designate an envelope or jar for your concert money and put every $1 and $5 bill you get in it. Then by the time you get to the concert, you’ll have a nice little stash of money saved up.

• Dig around for spare change

If you’re like most people on this planet, chances are that you probably have spare change in your car or your purse. Instead of letting that just sit around and get dusty, throw it in a jar and let it accumulate. When you get closer to concert time, take it all to the bank and get it changed out for cash.
