I rated the food 7/10 stars. There were SO MANY options to choose from. Also, there were plenty of gluten and vegan options. The prices weren't horrible compared to other festivals. For a tiny festival, their food lineup was crazy.
I rated the music 6/10 stars. I liked that there wasn't an overlap between artists. However, I do think that a lot of the artists weren't extremely well-established/had a strong stage presence just yet. Some sets were awkward or hard to hear. Despite this, there were definitely some artists that stood out.
I rated pop-ups 8/10 stars. I loved all the free merch I got. The staff who ran these popups were SO NICE. You could tell they really wanted to be there. I loved that these popups all had photo opportunities, too.
