Welcoming myself back to the real world today, after the 11 days and nights of
@coalesce_festival build, delivery and break, with a heart and rested head full of love and inspiration for the movement.
Year 3 was easily our biggest step forward as a festival, with the general ops involving 3x more people than previously - For context; when it comes to Coalesce, Seb
@brink_tl and I have never been great at accepting or even seeking benevolent help, but ahead of this year our stubborn ethos changed and unsurprisingly, all aspects of the event were delivered sustainably and with a massively increased level of diligence. It would only be right to give honourable mentions, salutes and loves to the key people who made this mini evolution possible:
@dj.lutsu ,
@kate_hatcher ,
@frankofab ,
@voices_in_your_shed ,
@jonny.scolari ,
@ddpearse , Josh B,
@deviantdnb and
@billiam_mtf , to our new event/operations managers
@stephelnorb ,
@artemis.dnb and Paris, through to the oustanding volunteer team of utter legends who worked on a variety of different projects. Also a special mention to the long term team player and everlasting support that is
@shaddows__ .
Basically, this year I’ve learnt that Coalesce Festival, as a community festival for like-minded underground culture-obsessed people, would fall over without the community of people who have helped propel ourselves forward this year.
A commitment to making 2026 even better is just around the corner. Love ❤️
