Performers know that packing for a show, competition, or event can be stressful. Forgetting even one small item can disrupt the entire day. With careful planning and the right tools, you can ensure a smooth, worry-free experience. Here are six packing tips to help performers stay organized and prepared.

1. Make a Checklist
Before you start packing, create a detailed checklist of everything you’ll need. Divide it into categories, such as costumes, makeup, shoes, accessories, and emergency items. Check each item off as you pack it to avoid forgetting anything. Check out our 'Ultimate Dance Bag Checklist'!
