The lead-up

Before we flew out

We'd never been to PEI, so we asked our followers for tips and turned the prep into content: a guide to the festival, outfit and makeup inspo, and a list of our favorite spots on the island once we'd actually been.

On the ground

Two days in Cavendish

Stories from gates to the last set, reels with the artists, and a couple of games on the grounds: Twenty One Pilots trivia for front pit wristbands and a Sombr giveaway for VIP passes. Our trivia reel alone passed 2.1 million views.
