I've heard of Interlochen before, and know a few people that have attended. This was my first experience going to a concert there. My husband and I got there early to look around. It was really fun, and we enjoyed listening to students practice in the small practice cabins littered throughout the campus.

The Concert itself was great. I saw other people complain about having to bring in a clutch or clear bag instead of a purse. Those rules are stated clearly when you buy the ticket though, nice and big. I brought a clutch and was SO glad I did. The stadium is nice, but the seating is old. So there really isn't much space for everyone to be bringing in large bags.

Everyone was also great about listening to the music and not taking out your phones to take photos. (Also a rule) it's the first time in ages I've been anywhere were people weren't taking selfie after selfie the entire time. (People, including me, took out their phones at the very last performance to take photos, and I think that worked best.)

Also, the Tamale Ladies food truck was at the venue! So freaking yummy!
