BACKERS · THE $10 MODEL
Back an artist.Earn your festival.
Every fan gets one free Backer Vote on signup. Each vote after is $10. 60% goes directly to artist payouts, the rest funds the festival, Clean Earth, and the BKK Street Team. You earn up to $50 off your ticket.
WHERE YOUR $10 GOES
Four buckets. Total transparency.
Every Backer Vote splits across four buckets. Only performing artists draw from the artist payout pool. Backers fund the artists who earn the stage.

THE CAMPAIGN LOOP
Artists run their own campaigns. You're the distribution.
Every artist in the running gets ARGT Share Studio: AI-generated promo captions, pre-built Instagram / TikTok / Twitter / Facebook templates, and a voting link auto-embedded. When you back an artist, their published templates appear in your fan dashboard for you to re-share. Every backer is a distribution node.

BEYOND THE WEEKEND
Backers see what others don't.
After the festival, the artists you backed publish exclusive unreleased recordings to your fan dashboard. Year-2 ticket priority lands here too. Plus a permanent credit in the festival film and on the artist's profile page.
