Following the opening session, this panel explores how creative experiences are shaping and defining independent festivals. It looks at how festivals are building immersive worlds and brands that go beyond line-ups, meeting the evolving demands of festival-goers, reengaging audiences through the art of play to create sustainable models, and examining global trends in festivals and live events that could inspire the UK scene.
