I now have a gig phone in order to avoid my normal phone getting nicked.
I also wear trousers with buttons on the pockets so that it deters anyone from trying to get my wallet in which I only bring a small amount of cash.
It is obviously very tempting for thieves to target gigs with the expensive equipment people now take.
As for festivals, I always sleep in my clothes in a sleeping bag as it's too cold anyway. I also bring a mallet with me for knocking the pegs into the ground which I also keep inside my sleeping bag. This can quickly be converted into a useful tool for breaking the fingers of any intruder.
