Kind of a no-brainer, but it's always a good idea to bring cash with you instead of relying on your debit or credit card during jam-packed festivals like Ultra.

At first, it might seem dicey to carry cash, but it's actually the better choice, as long as you keep it tucked in a secure place on your person or in your wallet or backpack.

You can avoid losing your cards or incurring whopping fees at ATM machines. Having cash on hand also stops you from wasting valuable time waiting in long lines in order to get money to buy drinks, food or T-shirts. It's best to bring it with you in advance.
