The way fans connect with their favorite artists and bands is nothing like it used to be over a decade ago.
With fans able to capture and share everything on their smartphone, concerts have often become a place of capturing memories instead of making them.
Fans will do almost anything to stand out and capture their idol’s attention. Sometimes a lucky supporter’s gift to a pop superstar will become that artist’s favorite prop on stage.
The rise and evolution of social media has allowed fans to share information, photos and videos of these experiences. Platforms such as Twitter and Instagram have even given fans access to the whereabouts of their favorite artists and celebrities.
In all types of weather, fans devote their time to waiting outside in order to meet their favorite celebrities or secure the perfect spot at a concert.
The fan-to-artist connection is continuing to adapt and evolve due to more advanced technology and new opportunities such as meet and greets and VIP upgrade packages.
