Since then, it has quickly taken the nation by storm by positioning itself as a one of a kind experience. Now, hundreds of thousands of people have witnessed this unique, spectacular and innovative show that others must experience to comprehend.

What initially began as a college tradition has transformed into a world-renowned live concert, featuring DJs, soaring aerial acts, stilt-walkers, contortion acts, fire shows and cannons to deliver the famous “Paint Blast,” along with many other unforgettable live performances. DAYGLOW grows every year in attendance and the strength of its acts and production.
