Tips on attending a metal fest in Europe

It's always been a dream of mine to attend one of those big metal fests - simply don't have those in my country. I'll be traveling to Europe for the first time, and I really want to catch one while I'm there.
I'll be there from 13 July - 29 July this year, particularly on the west side of Europe. Planning to go the UK, Switzerland, Germany and maybe more. I found this fest that seems to fit my criteria, Baden in Blut.
I just wonder how comfortable I'll be, as someone who only speaks English and is going solo. Should I be worried about anything? Any advice? Thanks!

Should I boost my monthly ETF investments? (Europe/Germany)
I know most here are US-based, but I thought I'd give this a shot. I've been running a pretty straightforward ETF portfolio through Ergo in Germany for a while now. Here's my current breakdown:...
I know most here are US-based, but I thought I'd give this a shot.
I've been running a pretty straightforward ETF portfolio through Ergo in Germany for a while now. Here's my current breakdown:
- 25% in iShares MSCI EM IMI ESG Screen UCITS ETF
- 25% in iShares MSCI Europe ESG Enhanced UCITS ETF
- 50% in iShares MSCI World SRI UCITS ETF EUR
I've recently freed up an extra €500 monthly that I'm looking to invest and am wondering if it would make sense to just bump up my monthly contribution from €1,000 to €1,500 while keeping the same allocation percentages, or should I consider doing something different with this extra cash?
For context, I've got my emergency fund covered (one year's expenses) and no debt to worry about.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
