With 2014 coming to a close it is time to look back on all of the amazing memories we created over the past year.
From Ultra Music Festival to Electric Forest and everything in between, it was you who made these events what they were. The performers, art installations, lights, and sound are surely a significant part of the overall electronic dance music festival experience but you – the EDM family – is really what makes it worth it.
Dressing up and being creative takes an incredible amount of time as well as both mental and financial investment. These selfless acts are really what distinguishes each festival from the next.
Falling into this category of creative contributions are music festival totems.
These carefully crafted signs serve as meeting spots for the crew, beacons to guide us when we are lost, and just generally hilarious works of art.
We have sifted through a stockpile of photography and narrowed it down to our favorites of the year.
Check out 20 of our favorite music festival totems from 2014 below.
