- I'm Wil Fulton,
and this is "Do It Right": Firefly Edition.
Whether you're a dewy-eyed newbie,
or a grisly old festival veteran
with an armful of old wristbands,
sometimes you do need a little help from your friends.
We're here to make sure you're fully prepared
for this year's festivities,
and don't end the weekend caked in mud...
Unless, of course, that's what you want.
If you know anything about festival season,
you know that Firefly,
held annually at The Woodlands in Dover, Delaware,
has established itself as one of the most
interesting and popular festivals on the East Coast,
maybe even the entire world.
You definitely want to bring a bag with you to Firefly,
especially if you aren't staying on the campgrounds.
Unfortunately, you can't bring any bags
bigger than a standard backpack,
about 12 by 12 inches.
Buzzkill, we know.
This venue's basically in the middle of the woods,
which means thousands and thousands
of blood-sucking insects.
Bring wet bug spray wipes.
Needless to say, there aren't a ton of outlets
available to you at this outdoor concert venue.
So, take matters into your own hands
and bring a portable charger.
This way, you'll never lose your friends,
and also you can stalk your ex on Facebook if you want to.
Hydration is obviously a necessity.
And aside from copious amounts of water,
you should be bringing some hangover cures, too.
Because of Firefly's remote location,
traveling by car is probably the ideal option.
Unless you have your own private chopper.

Around the venue, there's plenty of parking --
if you're willing to spend a little bit, of course.
If you want to avoid all the parking fees and traffic,
the bus might be your new best friend.
There are DART bus shuttles from Wilmington to Firefly
that take about two-and- a-half hours one way,
all for a measly $4.50.
Just remember to bring cash, as they do not accept cards
or personal favors.
If you want to soak in
every moment of festival fun at Firefly,
you can just pitch a tent and never leave The Woodlands.
If you need a break from the festival,
there are plenty of hotels in the surrounding area.
Hotels.com is a stellar resource
for finding the best deals during Firefly --
or anytime really.
Now that we've covered the logistics,
let's get to the fun stuff,
'cause that's why we're here, right?
Obviously you're gonna wanna see the bigger acts
like Kendrick or Portugal. The Man,
but if you wanna catch some bands before they were cool,
keep your ears peeled for Chicano Batman,
a wild psychedelic/tropical band
known for their high- energy live performances.
Deep inside The Woodlands,
you'll find one of the best dance parties of your life
called The Thicket.
They'll provide a pair of heavy-duty headphones
and a lineup of world class DJs for you to rock along with.
All you have to do is dance.
At the end of the day,
remember to be safe, stay cool,
and above all else, have fun.
Festival season is about peace, love,
and plenty of hangover remedies.
That's it for me, folks.
