✨ Megan Fuhrman – Vice President: Convincing everyone I had a secret set at a graveyard onsite at Imagine and 30 people showed up and texted us where I was at. I never had a secret set LOL so now Kat, Jackie and I make jokes about me having a “cemetery set” at 3am!
✨ Melanie Monroe – Marketing Director: Tough to pick 😭 Probably getting to witness Zeds Dead at Electric Forest 2023. Best set EVER!
✨ Jackie Yencik – Director of Brand Partnerships: Of The Trees Sunrise set at Shambhala!!! I got to experience this with my best friend Kat. Everyone in the crowd was hugging and handing out random trinkets and mini mandarins for breakfast. I felt connected to everyone there. It was such a beautiful day and the whole experience felt surreal. I can’t wait to be back on the farm this year!
✨ Chelle Winn – Administrative Manager: There are so many magical moments I’ve had at festivals!! One of my all time favorite memories was at Ultra 2019 when I got to witness my my best friends get engaged at their favorite artists set, Slander B2B Nghtmare!!
✨ Maggie Newell – Social Media Manager: My first time ever going backstage at Shambhala and getting to go down the slide at the village stage and be on stage for Zeds Dead’s set!
✨ Amber Lewandowski – Artist Relations Coordinator: LiB 2024: my friends and I stayed up until the sunrise on the last day. Our whole camp was up listening to the best music, dancing together, and inviting all the people who walked by to party with us. I’ve never seen so much genuine happiness and smiles in one place it was so magical 🥹 can’t wait for this years LiB🥰
✨ Chandler Maynard – Media & PR Director: I have so many, but the first one that comes to mind is going to Where in the Woods at Bonnaroo in 2023 (my first year on staff at TFB) and leaving as the sun was coming up. There was a guy with a DJ board hooked to a speaker on another guys back, and they paraded it all through the camp grounds. It was SO FUN and kept the party going. My fav festival in the entire world :).
✨ Britta Grace – Social Media Coordinator: Meeting my boyfriend in the security line at Electric Forest in 2022 and then us getting married at the chapel the next year (forest married, y’all will KNOW when we get married married)
✨ Victoria Crespin – Artist Relations Intern: My favorite memory from a festival has to be Tame Impala headlining Okeechobee Music Festival in 2022. This was my very first camping festival as a baby raver and getting to hear my favorite artist surrounded by some of my best friends in college was truly MAGICAL. Let me tell you once that confetti during “Let It Happen” dropped, tears of joy were running down my face!
✨ Leah Laskowski – Brand Partnerships Intern: I could go on and on about all of the laughs and amazing memories that has come from going to festivals with my best friends, but I’d have to say my favorite memory would be the first time I saw Spirit Lake at Hulaween. I was so in awe of how beautiful it was and how much detail there was in every single art installation. It’s a big reason why Hula is my favorite festival.
✨ Marz – Social Media Intern: My wedding at Electric Forest 2024 and the great monsoon that followed after 😂 we made the best of it and actually still had a lot of fun!
