I went to Austin Mahone’s concert with Fifth Harmony, The Vamps, and Shawn Mendes on Wednesday at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles and this is what I learned.
The hormones will be OUT of control.
The collective thirst of the audience was SO real. Girls LOST their shit every time headliner Austin Mahone flashed his abs or busted out some sultry dance moves. Puberty, man. Puberty DOES things.

There will be tweens. Lots of them.
The audience probably was 95% pre-teen and teenage girls. One girl who couldn't be much older than 20 sitting near me said she felt “so old” at the concert, so that should paint a picture of the average age in attendance.
Also, their parents and siblings will be there. However, they won't be enjoying the concert as much.
Mom wasn't going to let the girls go to the concert alone, was she? There were a fair amount of parents (dads too!) in the audience, along with some even-younger siblings. For the most part, they sat down and persevered. But I saw at least one mom get super into it — she danced along the entire time.

There will be screaming. SO. MUCH. SCREAMING.
There may be no louder sound that thousands of teenagers screaming for Austin Mahone's abs in unison. Maybe that's why so many of the parents brought earplugs.
