While both possess the quintessential accoutrements of an underground dance music festival, Dirtybird is special because of its lineup of artist-hosted activities. Reminiscent of the summer camps of yore, attendees split their days between the dance floor, the lake and the games.
For those with unique talents or who prefered less physically active pursuits, events like the Beatbox Competition or Camper Standup served as entertaining alternatives. Regardless of physical prowess , intelligence, or skill set, there was an activity for everyone. The winning color of each game was tallied and added to a total running score with the orange team eventually dominating the weekend.
Teams were divided into their respective colors where new teammates quickly began connecting and discussing tactics. Hydrodynamics played no part in this ridiculous race, as the floaties ranged from a pizza slice to a gigantic pink ‘90s-inspired cellphone -- provided by the race’s master of ceremonies, Vanessa Barnes, the producer gracing the lineup as VNSSA.
