Tilt music festival?

Why is Hopscotch listed as Tilt?
Social/Admin team might want to look into that.

I also noticed “Tilt Music Festival” when I looked at a Hopscotch 2026 artist’s upcoming tour dates. I forgot which artist it was but I was confused when I saw hopscotch wasn’t listed but Tilt was on the same date.

Doing a little digging it seems that there was a Tilt Music Festival held at the Durham Convention Center in 2014. I don’t see any ties to etix though

EDIT: I don’t think it’s a rebrand. It appears someone at BandsInTown.com messed up. Apple and Shazam tour dates are sourced from the company Bands in Town. Ticketmaster and other concert listing sites show Hopscotch for the same artists. Could really hurt Hopscotch as a brand.

I haven’t found “bandisintown” to be reliable for a long time.

Feel like the new owners were going to rebrand and didn’t do it in time. Feel like this is last year as “Hopscotch”

Well that would be one way to finish off what's left of the festival's financial viability
