The Afterburn had so many highlights throughout the weekend, it’s hard to choose our favorite!

From onstage proposals and tattoo, guitar smashes, crowd surfers, artists performing in the crowd, and more, this is the stuff that truly makes festivals memorable.

So what was your favorite moment at the festival? Let us know in the comments!

We at The Afterburn are so grateful that you trusted us and came out for year 1 of this festival. Without YOU, we couldn’t have done this. Thank you all form the bottom of our hearts. We truly appreciate every last one of you who came out!
