elementa
Elementa is a three day music festival that will be held during the summer in Rome, New York. There will be four
stages, which will feature musical acts. We will donate 15% of the proceeds to The Conservation Fund, a non-profit
environmental group.
festival theme
As there are four elements of the earth and four elements of music, Elementa combines these powerful elements to
create a unique, fun, and earthy musical experience. Each of the four stages will be tied to an element of the earth and
an element of music. The musicians assigned to each stage will refect the feeling being portrayed by the stage.

brand promise
Elementa will relate the elements of the earth with musical elements to create a fun and unique festival experience
without the commercialization of many current festivals.
brand philosophy
A music festival should be about the basics: the music. Its about the bands playing and the fans appreciating the
artists who do what they love. Our festival cuts through the commercialization that many festivals have been overrun
with today to bring music lovers what they want. We also ensure that each festival-goers experience will be eco-friendly
through our sustainable practices.

competitor analysis
Lollapalooza is located in Chicago, Illinois and features
the genres of rock, metal, and hip-hop. It has a fun,
happy tone, is eco-friendly, and markets itself as being a
family festival. However, many complain that it is very
commercialized and it doesnt have on-site camping.
There is also no real theme.
Located in Indio California, Coachella features a festival
on the beach with all genres of music. The festivals
website is very well put together and there are fun things
for attendees to do during the day, such as carnival rides.
However, many complain that it is too commercialized
and only mainstream music is played.
Bonaroo is located in Manchester, Tennesee and features
all genres of music. It is eco-friendly and has plenty of
camping options and entertainment for attendees.
However, like many other festivals it is commercialized
and does not have a theme.
Grassroots takes place in Ithaca, New York and features
the genres of Bluegrass, Indie, and Jam Band. It is a
small festival that is inexpensive and family oriented. It
is very environmentally conscious and they donate their
proceeds to charities. However, the festival only appeals
to a certain demographic and is not very popular.

Tomorrowland is located in Boom, Belgium and features
only electronic music. It has a mystic and dreamy theme
with theatrical props and decorations. It is also not as
commercialized as other festivals. The festival does not
have a lot of rules and regulations, which can be both a
strength and a weakness. There is also not a wide genre
of music, which can be negative because there is not
music for everybody.
Benicassim is located on the beach in Benicassim,
Spain and features alternative rock and electronic
music. Where most festivals have an ending curfew
of 2:00am, Benicassim goes on throughout the night
until the sun comes up in the morning. Attendees then
sleep on the beach all day. However, the festival is very
commercialized with no real theme and the website is
very unorganized.

differentiation
Dedication to Charity
Most music festivals today are created specifically to make a profit for the festivals hosts. Elementa, however, is going
to donate 15% of the proceeds to The Conservation Fund, making the admission fee more meaningful.
Differentiation With Sponsors
In order for festival tickets to be affordable for attendees, sponsors are critical. Commercialization, however, has
become a common complaint of consumers. Elementa will be sponsored by companies who have relatable values.
Many will be non-profit and/or socially responsible organizations. Examples include: Toms, People Water, and Back to
Nature.
Environmentally Friendly
Festival-goers leave massive amounts of non-biodegradable waste. Elementa will strive to cut down waste by promoting
recycling, carpooling, and other green practices. We will require the vendors to use recyclable materials for things such
as food and drink products.
Wide Variety of Music Styles
By tying each natural element with a different musical element, Elementa brings together more than just its attendees,
but also musicians that represent different types of music.

Hey! Im a freshman at New York
University. Coming from a small town
in Upstate, New York, Im excited to
be in the big city and on my own
for the first time. From concerts to
parties, there is so much to do in
NYC and my friends and I go out
every weekend- we never go to the
same place twice! I love listening to
music and seeing my favorite artists
live, but a great thing about going to
college is being introduced to new
music all the time.
Hi! Im a senior at Syracuse
University. The past three years at
college have been awesome, and
Im really looking forward to making
this year an adventure. Now that
Im 21, I love kicking back with a
beer and listening to new and old
music with my friends, as well as
going out and enjoying myself at a
concert or a bar. Whos ready to do
big things with me?
Hi there. Im a recent graduate from
Ithaca College. Since I graduated
two years ago, Ive landed my
dream job as an Account Manager
at Firstborn. I love going to work
everyday, but sometimes it can be
really stressful. My coworkers and
friends from college love meeting
up after a hard day and relaxing at a
bar, but sometimes happy hour just
doesnt hit the spot. I would love to
get away for the weekend and let
the stress of work float away.
