location: at glazed finish's face painting stall
Any excuse, Jay would take any excuse he could, to have his face painted with rainbow colours and glitter. For him it was a repeat of pride. But then, most festivals were, it meant he could get completely lost in the vibes, dancing from place to place. This was where he'd decided to start. As he sat, face almost finished, he pointed toward a passerby. "Hey... you should get your face painted," he began, his attention turning to the artist then. "They are a pro. Fucking fantastic."

where: aura music festival, hammock station
it would be his last time in a hammock, of that kieran was absolutely sure. somehow, he'd managed to get tangled, or trapped in it -- probably on account of him being all limbs, uncoordinated as hell and seriously lacking in strength. for the last minute or so, the hammock had been swinging like mad, strings of curse words and colourful phrases ( "how the fuck--" prominent among them ) as he tried desperately to escape. a long arm stuck straight up in the air and he grasped the side, managing to pull himself up just enough to poke his head over and make eye contact with a poor passerby. "'ey! pal! couldn't give us an 'and could you, love? i feel like i'm being eaten alive by cloth, here. i don't know what the fuck i've done," a pleading smile plastered across his lips. "and i'm pretty sure my fifteen minutes are up, so some bloke in a shit tie dye shirt with a peace sign tattooed on his forehead is probably gonna come and forcibly remove me in a second and i'd rather that not happen."
where: early after noon, any day, aura music festival
what: doing an activity at one of the vendor tents (making rave sprouts, laying in hammocks, palm reading line, sitting inside the giant parachute, playing balloon darts, making signs, or face painting - pick your muse's favorite!)
Sherri sighed, scrunching her nose at her current task. "I can't tell if this is relaxing, exciting, or just — dumb." She blurted to the person nearest her.
closed starter for @s3renities & @ryder-weston & open (@bhqextras)
where: electric ink flash tattoos
(this idea was borrowed with permission, this is group starter not a group thread!)
she has a new tattoo of a frog in a cowboy hat, and that's fine, it's perfectly fine. "don't ask, it was a dare, and I always follow through," she tells the person waiting for her, eyebrows going up as if to dare them to comment. "not sure if this will hurt, or help my brand, though. what do you think?"
And the gates are now open! As a reminder to the lovely members of the boroughs, the event’s ooc timeline will from today through next Friday, September 6th.

it's curiosity that makes their feet follow the arrows to the art section of the festival. it's strictly curiosity, and that's it. there are a few artists hajoon already knows, and they can also point out the fact that they are there to see them. no one else. though, when the familiar figure does catch their eyes, hajoon can't help but make their way towards him, squinting at the artworks nearby. "any of these yours?" isn't the politest greeting, for there is enough alcohol in their system to make them let go of the very few inhibitions they usually have. maybe, they will sober up soon. "are festivals any good for... this? they don't seem to be —-"
Aura Music Festival is back and better than ever! Starting off as a one-day music festival back in 2013 to celebrate the end of summer, it has since grown into a two-day, and now finally three-day music festival! Now boosting 90k fans over a three-day weekend, Aura Music Festival has always strived to host an open and inclusive environment for festival-goers and performers alike. Aura Fest is also highly known for prioritizing deals with local New York businesses over big name corporations. This year, long-time sponsor Glow Nightclub has been honored with the secondary stage name for their decade-long commitment to the growth of Aura Fest.
Doors open at 11am and closes at 11pm. Aura Fest recommends guests to use public transportation to get to the festival, and to remember to follow the clear bag policy for quick and easy entry!

OOC DETAILS.
IC Timeline: Canonically, the music festival occurs over the weekend, from August 30th — September 6th.
OOC Timeline: Members will have between August 30th through September 6th to post their initial starters for the festival. After 9/6, no new starters are permitted, but members are free to continue their ongoing event threads until their natural conclusion. An announcement will be made on both days when the event has started and ended.
Festival Inspo: Aura Fest takes direct inspiration from two other NYC music festivals, Governors Ball Music Festival & All Things Go Music Festival. Specifically, the location and layout of Governor’s Ball (minus one stage) and the inclusion and sound of All Things Go. As for size, Aura Fest lies in the middle of the two, bigger than All Things Go (13k daily cap), but smaller than Gov Ball (50k daily cap), with a daily cap of 30k attendees to max out at 90k over the weekend.
Involvement: Aura Fest is known for sponsoring partnerships with local vendors, many of which have been included in the vendor list above. Characters are welcome to both be guests of the event or employees manning a tent, aiding a musician, volunteering as security or cleanup crew, or anything in between!
Food: Small note, but for ease, listing out all the food options available was omitted. Members are free to use their imagination when it comes to what food is available at all the food symbol locations on the map.
