I was just wondering, because I'm sure there might be some parents that bring their children...and because I am very young.

...Eleven years old young.

No age limit as far as I know, but at 11-years-old your parent or guardian should be escorting you wherever you go.

Mhm, my mom will be attending with me.

Thanks for answering my question~

Technically, there is no age limit to MusicFest. Just to clear some things up, you don't need to go with a parent or guardian unless you are under 10 years old. It's not a requirement to bring an adult. MusicFest is part of the Fanime package if you buy a badge. So it's essentially up to you! You may bring a parent if you feel safe with one, but Fanime is pretty safe.

Just as a note for you and your parent: this might be a sort of "duh" moment, but it is RIDICULOUSLY loud in the theater. I've been to a few concerts, but last year it was seriously so loud that I couldn't stand it for more than 15-30 seconds before I retreated outside, and I tried multiple times. So, if you or your parent have sensitive ears it might be good to bring some sort of ear protection so that your mom doesn't walk in and say "OH JESUS MY EARS ARE BLEEDING FORGET THIS" and immediately turn around. Similarly you may want to be cautious as well.

I know it sounds silly to bring ear plugs to a concert, I'm just letting you know this was my experience last year and it was unfortunate because I was hoping to see FLOW, but my ears just couldn't take it.

It's definitely not silly. It can be a great idea; your hearing is precious. I've pretty sure I've damaged my hearing by being in a lot of very loud environments. I picked up some SureFire Sonic Defenders a little while ago; they're designed to dampen sound, but not block it. It works really well for concerts; that's what I got them for. There are other ear plugs out there that do similar things.

on the earplugs comment: I always try to bring earplugs to any sort of concert. You might never know when you will end up next to the speakers! Plus, as you get older, you lose some hearing so it's good to protect your hearing at any age.

The concert will definitely be loud and fun. I hope you and your parents enjoy it.
