Go Inside The World’s Most Instagrammable Festival, Ever
H-town, you vicious
Day For Night isn't just a music festival, nor is it an arts festival. It has music, and it has art, but it's so much more than standing around in front of stages and installation pieces. It's basically a gargantuan art gallery space pulsing with the sounds of Solange, Cardi B, Jamie xx, St. Vincent, Shlomo, and more. The art is interactive, drenching Houston's PostHTX in millions of little lights and open portals to what could very well be another dimension. Day For Night is where you go, dressed as you are, and become one with art, music, sound, and the community.
We thought last year's weekend was mind-blowing, but man, Day For Night upped the ante this year. The FOMO right now is very real—if only for the infinite Instagram opportunities this little fest that could offered up. Oh well! Guess we'll just have to fill a giant net with disco balls and shine big lights on it ourselves. Until then, get into the magic, below.
