You are feeling the need to drink now, what makes you think a music festival will be easier?
I hope you'll reconsider going if there is going to be alcohol at this event. Not long ago another poster, with almost a month sober, decided he
needed to go to a concert, needed to
test his sobriety because he couldn't be cooped up his whole life. He didn't heed the advisements not to go and he hasn't been back to Sober Recovery since.
You are a mere 10 days sober. Make your sobriety more important than trying to maintain your "old" life.
