What to Wear to a Concert or Music Festival in 2025


Whether you have tickets to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour, Coachella, or an intimate show at your favorite local venue, figuring out what to wear to a concert is half the fun. After all, the right outfit doesn’t just make a statement—it sets the tone for the entire experience, and it can make the outing feel even more special.

In some cases, you might want to channel the energy of your favorite artist with a costume-inspired look. In others, you might want to take a cool, fashion-forward approach. If you’re looking for the latter, I found eight It girl-approved outfits that will help you serve up major fashion.

From Hailey Bieber’s sporty chic ensemble at Rema’s concert to Sienna Miller’s utilitarian glam at Glastonbury, these are the kinds of outfits that steal the spotlight and make dancing the night away a breeze.

It doesn’t matter if you’re heading to a muddy field or a sold-out arena, you’ll find exactly what to wear to your next concert below.

Layers will be your saving grace, especially when you might be dealing with spring’s unpredictable weather. Do like Saffron Hocking at Glastonbury Festival and reach for an on-trend barn jacket for easy layering or use it as an impromptu blanket for sitting in the grass.

Functional dressing has never looked better. Follow Sienna Miller’s lead and lean into pieces that offer practicality for your next music festival adventure. Start with Barbour’s weatherproof jacket and finish your look with galoshes that can stand up to mud.

You can never go wrong with a little crochet dress. Karrueche Tran shows how it’s done while attending Coachella last year. Balance the shorter hem with tall boots and accessorize a plunging neckline with a statement necklace.

Jacopo Raule

There’s a liberating feeling when you’re listening to the tunes of your favorite artist. And there’s no better way to channel that free-spirited vibe than with a bohemian outfit. Like Clara Soccini at the 2025 Sanremo Music Festival, start with statement-making faded denim and pair it with a lace top. Bonus points if you whip out the feathers.
