I'm going to my first concert? Advice?

Don't worry ! One Direction concerts are AMAZING, I've been to three of them and they're the best! I went to TMH, WWA, and a special show which was kind of different than their regular concerts. You're so lucky you're going to OTRA! I can't because they won't come here, which definitely isn't fair now is it?!
Okay anyways I'll give you some advice. Well, unhappy events are unlikely. Make sure to eat something so you don't get hungry and bring a LOT of water because it's hot and you don't want to get dehydrated!! I know this is silly, but depending on where your seats are (especially if they're high up) try your best not to fall. It doesn't happen that often, but if you're reallyyyyyy high up and you're going up/down the stairs, there's a small chance you may fall if you're not watching your step. It happened to me at the TMH concert haha :P
Also... Have fun with whoever you're going with! They'll keep you company so don't worry, just enjoy it.
What to bring... Um, I would say water, food, (unless you want to buy food which I would NOT recommend because it's sooo expensive!) definitely your phone to take pictures and videos, sunglasses, (trust me you'll need them) and a funny sign if you want ! Maybe the boys will notice it, they love reading funny signs. Liam usually stops at one point in the show to read signs and they show a lot of them on the screens! What not to bring... Don't wear a bunch of merchandise unless you really want to because some fans can be mean and they'll probably call you a carrot. Anywayyyy... don't bring an expensive camera if you're afraid of losing it. I don't really know what else to not bring!! Don't bring too much stuff because it'll be hard to carry around.
I actually had a sort of, I guess you could say 'scary' experience after the WWA show. Well I wasn't scared, it was mainly my friend. When we got out from the concert, we couldn't find our ride for like 45 minutes. But there were LOADS of other fans around us who had the same problem and police officers everywhere. My friend was freaking out and crying... I knew we'd find them so I don't know why she was going crazy! But if you're also scared of getting lost, make sure to tell whoever's taking you to meet you in a certain spot and call them right after the concert is over.
What to do... JUST HAVE FUN !!!! ONE DIRECTION CONCERTS ARE AMAZING. SING ALONG AND DANCE, WAVE YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR AND JUST ENJOY IT! If you have a funny sign, try to get them to notice it!
What not to do, don't scream too much, just sing along. Don't yell anything stupid, don't throw anything on stage and don't try to attack them. You'll embarrass yourself. Oh and don't make the same mistake I did and push everyone because they can be pretty rude, I didn't do it intentionally though, I was just trying to get through! But don't let them run you over either, just say "Excuse me, can you move please?" and if they have an attitude, then push them out of the way!
HAVE FUN!!!! :)

If you get to the front of the stage during the opening bands, be ready - as soon as the main act comes on there is going to be a huge crowd rushing the stage and you might get shoved around a lot. If you're a girl don't bring a big purse. Take something small that you can wear across your shoulder.

bring some earplugs, it might get too loud

Sit, smile, hum, enjoy yourself.


Have a polite day.
