T-Mobile's festival perks are mostly for its highest-paying subscribers

Clicking the Checkout button after reserving festival tickets is the easy part. Then, there's the planning, the trip, the endless lanes, the heat, the dying phone batteries, the absurdly expensive food and beverages on site and more.

For some, this is not just the best but the only way to experience a music festival. Others might prefer a bit more streamlined process that won't leave them gasping for air when the whole thing's done and over with. These people might very well be T-Mobile subscribers.

Coachella is still causing thousands of heads to spin and buzz with excitement, now's Stagecoach time (April 24–April 26) and, as a whole, the summer festival period has begun, nevermind it's still April.

T-Mobile has something to say when it comes to festivals and Experience Beyond plan subscribers can get many perks from day one.

Tickets are getting pricier

T-Mobile says festival tickets are getting "freakin' expensive" and I can't disagree in the slightest. Per estimates, festival tickets jumped 38% in price over the last seven years. So it's not just that you have to wait for hours and hours in the online queue, but you have to save more money upfront.

However, T-Mobile Tickets allows you to take advantage of presales and special offers. Members can save 25% off concert tickets at over 120 venues and more than 8,000 shows every year.

What's more, one can grab festival tickets even to sold-out shows. On top of that, there are $50 on-site credits (per ticket!) for food and merch.

The trip itself

How should you and your friends (if you've got any that'll accompany you to the festival) go to the big event? By plane, by car? What hotel should you choose? Oh, snap, everything's sold out.

The T-Mobile Travel perk is there for members to save them on hotels and rental cars

How to skip a line?

Don't try anything stupid, as people who wait over 30 minutes to get into a venue can suddenly become short-tempered. It's not worth it.

But at select venues, T-Mobile members can get in faster with perks like free Fast Lane or Quick Pass entry.

You can add the Magenta Pass in T-Life to your digital wallet and scan it at the entrance.

The Club Magenta

At festivals like Stagecoach, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits, T-Mobile has that well-known Club Magenta spot. This is where you can relax and grab a drink between sets.

The lounge area also offers 50% off drinks during Magenta Hour.

Depending on the festival, there are also artist meet-and-greets.

Keep your phone charged

Virtually everybody posts during a festival and that takes a toll on the battery of our handsets. T-Mobile has charging stations at some festivals, so make sure you take advantage of those.
