Some music festivals are now offering a designated space for attendees who are staying sober to enjoy the event in an alcohol-free environment.

Stagecoach Festival, held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, from April 28-30, is partnering with 1 Million Strong to provide a wellness tent where attendees will have a space to relax, drink mocktails and enjoy the country music at the festival.
