In this episode, we focus on accessibility and disability inclusion within music festivals. Live music can bring people together but, unfortunately, most venues and events are not inclusive for all music fans. In this episode, we talked to Shawn Satterfield, founder of Shine Music and the Shine Music Festival, an accessible music festival in Colorado. After noticing the barriers and separation people with disabilities face when attending live music events, Shawn was inspired to create a festival with all needs in mind. We discussed how Shine Music Festival works to eliminate barriers and create a space where everyone feels comfortable and welcome. The festival, which is the world’s largest universally-designed music festival, incorporates emerging technologies, sensory spaces, and other accessibility elements to create an experience that everyone can enjoy together.
