Whether you’re new in the area, or if it’s your first time experiencing any kind of Lakeland nightlife, it can be a bit difficult to maneuver the first time around. After all, if you’re looking to get the most out of your nightlife experience, you and your friends are probably looking to hit as many spots in a single night. So if this is your first time going out on a nightlife, it would be best to have a gameplan in place. For some additional tips, here is a beginner’s guide to the local nightlife.
Check out the local spots
Before you make a plan with your friends, look up the local spots that you guys are planning to hit. Make sure that it’s somewhere that all of you are interested in going to so that nobody feels left out. It is also important to try to limit the spots that you guys want to hit within a certain radius and that they aren’t too far apart. This makes it easy for you to keep track of each other in case one of you decides to go ahead to stay behind one of the spots.
Have enough cash on hand, and avoid bringing your cards along
You’re going to need cash when going out on a nightlife. This will be used to pay for food, drinks, transportation, entrance fees, and anything else that you might encounter throughout the night. Because of this, you should make sure that you have enough cash on hand to cover these costs. In addition to this, leave your cards at home. This guarantees that you don’t end up overspending when you didn’t intend to, and it minimizes the risk of having your cards stolen.
Keep hydrated
Hitting a lot of spots within the span of one night is going to be physically exhausting. Combine this with all the dancing and drinking you’re bound to be doing, and you might get dehydrated pretty quickly. Counteract this by bringing along a bottle of water with you, no matter where you go. Water will keep you hydrated so that you don’t end up hungover the next morning and helps you keep going the rest of the night.
Dress appropriately
When going out, make sure you’re dressed for the occasion. Wear shoes that you’ll be comfortable in for the entirety of the night so you don’t end up with bleeding feet by the end of the night. Also, avoid bringing heavy bags or purses so you don’t end up lugging it around the entire night. Your arms will end up feeling tired at the end of it all, and worst case scenario, you might end up putting it down and forgetting about it. Bring around a small bag that’s easy enough to carry, but big enough to carry only the essentials like your phone, wallet, and keys.
