KDVR reported that the event is planned to take place at Overland Park Golf Course near South Broadway and West Florida Avenue. Residents and planners shared points of view about the festival. It is logical to want to have additional security and recycling programs setup for any large-scale event. AEG and Superfly will be promoting and planning the event.

Technology Trends Breaking Ground at SXSW Interactive 2017
SXSW Interactive provided multiple platforms for developers, designers and producers to learn more about managing digital content this past March 10-14. One way to find the upcoming tech trends and diamonds in the rough at SXSW is by going to the coding workshops and discussions. Keynote speakers will have more industry knowledge, but to find original ideas and a strong center of collective consciousness, guests will have to dive deep into interactive events. Hacking meet ups is an excellent way to network at SXSW. A popular trend that I noticed from one of the SXSW Interactive courses was the
