The Burning Man stat is particualrly impressive since about 80,000 people or almost 20% fewer attend the gathering vs. Coachella at 99,000.
More Instagram fest stat highlights:
- Festival-goers are posting 5 times more at summer music fests than they did in 2017.
- 6 of the top 10 most Insta obsessive festivals come from the US.
- Craziest festival trend of the summer is the ‘Janties’ – a mix between jeans & pants. Searches for ‘Janties’ have shot up by over +1000% in the last month alone.
