Project Overview

Photojournalist, blog and broadcast coverage of Duluth's 8-day, multi-venue, 200 band music festival. This is a full web, social media and broadcast takeover and on-air includes daily, 30-minute performances, a 2-hour local music special and hundreds of festival related announcements for attendees. The festival is happening virtually this year, so we will adjust our coverage to fit the circumstances, but will still provide comprehensive coverage of the event.
