Meeting new people at a festival has been something we've been unable to do during the pandemic. Instead, we've opted for livestreaming them on the couch. But for many countries, summer events are truly back on the bill.
Tinder has teamed up with a bunch of major music festivals to bring back Festival Mode, a feature launched in 2019 that lets you connect with people who are planning to go to the same event as you.

You'll be able to match with other people attending the same event as early as a month beforehand, so you can chat about which artists you want to see (and if you're having good chats, maybe plan to watch them together, maybe just compare notes).
So far, Tinder's partnered with 20 festivals around the world including U.S. festivals Bonnaroo, The Governors Ball, Hard Summer, Lovers and Friends, and EDC in Las Vegas and Orlando. In Australia, Splendour in the Grass, Falls Festival, and Festival X are on board, and in the UK, it's All Points East and BST Hyde Park.
In Europe, there's Lollapalooza in Stockholm, Paris, and Berlin; Sónar in Spain; Parookaville in Germany; Sziget Festival in Hungary; Palmesus in Norway; and Vunzige Deuntjes Festival and Milkshake in the Netherlands.
There's also going to be a "Festival Goers" space in the app for people who don't see a festival they're going to listed but are just fans of music and going to festivals (and have serious FOMO).
It's just the latest addition Tinder's made to its Explore tab, with blind dates added in February. Just as always, if you're meeting up with someone new IRL, even at a music festival, you should keep a couple of things in mind.
