They know the set list before the encore. They're front row or they're leaving early. These gifts belong in their concert bag.

High-fidelity earplugs that reduce volume evenly across frequencies instead of muffling highs and letting bass through — the hearing protection that lets a concert-goer stand in front of speakers and still hear the mix the way the sound engineer intended. Eargasm is the earplug brand that music communities recommend for concert use; the high-fidelity filter is what separates these from foam plugs that make music sound like it's coming from another room.
“The one reliable rule of gift-giving: anything that makes them look more serious at what they love will be received with disproportionate gratitude.”

A 26,800mAh battery bank with three ports and enough capacity to charge a phone six times — the festival and multi-day concert essentials item that determines whether someone makes it through a weekend without a dead phone. Anker PowerCore is the portable charger brand that r/festivals and r/concerts communities recommend; the 26800 size is the maximum capacity allowed through most venue and festival security.

A camera holster clip that attaches to a belt or bag strap and holds a camera body securely while freeing both hands — the concert photography accessory for someone who brings a DSLR or mirrorless camera and wants it accessible without wearing it around their neck for three hours. Peak Design Capture is the clip that concert and event photographers use; the one-hand release gets the camera out and back in a second.

A 16-liter daypack with hip belt pockets for phones and a main compartment that fits a 32oz water bottle — the concert and festival bag that holds everything without being too large to wear in a crowd. Cotopaxi's Batac is the size that venues allow without bag checks, with the organization that a full day at a festival or a full night at a club requires.

A drop-tested iPhone case with a lens mount thread for attaching Moment's wide angle and anamorphic lenses — the mobile photography upgrade for a concert-goer who documents every show with their phone and wants more creative control. Moment lenses are what mobile photographers use to go beyond the phone's built-in focal lengths; a 77mm wide angle on the Moment lens changes what's possible in a dark, crowded venue.
