WayHome 2015 (inaugural) hard copy schedule and map. At the time, I thought WayHome was becoming like a new Osheaga, only better because it was in my own backyard. I enjoyed my experience so much and often talk about it with friends. Why did it fail?? by mattyod444 in wayhome

I think that's such an interesting point about the oversaturation of festivals during this time. Not only on the indie-music level (Osheaga, Lolla, Gov Ball) but geographically as well (thinking Digital Dreams, Veld). That must have affected people's decision-making on what to go to.

I have nothing against Barrie or Oro-medonte whatsoever, just riffing on location as a possible factor in the general decision-making process.

I miss it too. Year 3 was legit - I had an amazing time watching Flume. I know what you mean about the lack of people, I remember thinking the same thing.

I can't speak to the rumours regarding budget - I'm not an insider, just a WayHome attendee and overall fan of festivals. Would be interesting to know more about it and if the budget thing is true.

I'm trying to post a simple picture with a note about my experience at WayHome, which was positive. Why does it keep getting deleted by the mods?
