March Recap
Festival Energy, Fresh Drops & What’s Next
March came in hot with the official kickoff of festival season, and the Kandies World crew showed up strong across some of the biggest events of the month. From Okeechobee’s unforgettable vibe to new collection drops and community highlights, this month was all about connection, creativity, and momentum. Here’s a look back at everything we experienced—and a peek at what’s coming next.
Our Newest Drop
Our Okeechobee Collection is finally here and it’s bringing all the colorful, carefree energy we love about the festival!
Inspired by dancing beneath the palms, wandering through art installations, and the magic of meeting new rave fam, this drop is all about embracing the playful side of festival style.
We’ve launched brand new cuffs, harnesses, perlers, pacifiers, hair clips, and key chains designed to add the perfect kandi touch to any outfit.
Whether you’re trading kandi, spreading PLUR, or just soaking in the music and the moment, these pieces are made to celebrate connection, creativity, and the unforgettable memories that festivals like Okeechobee bring. ✨
Festival Season Kicks Off
Festival season's officially kicked off, and our team hit the ground running.
This month we had teams out at some of the biggest events of the season, including Okeechobee, Miami Music Week, Beyond Wonderland, and Get Lucky Festival.
Our crews brought the Kandies World energy to festival grounds across the country, connecting with the community, trading kandi, and helping ravers find the perfect pieces to complete their looks.
It was incredible getting to see familiar faces, meet new rave fam, and celebrate the start of another unforgettable festival season. ✨
Kandies Festival Review:
OKEECHOBEE
Okeechobee delivered an incredible vibe-driven experience with standout crowd energy, fashion creativity, and overall atmosphere across the festival.
The lineup and genre variety kept things exciting, and the crowd brought strong PLUR energy all weekend long.
While the production and sound quality were solid, some areas like stage visuals, art installations, and walking distances left a bit to be desired.
Amenities were fairly balanced, with good food options and smooth entry, though bathrooms and water stations could have been improved.
Overall, Okeechobee shines most in its community feel and immersive vibe, making it a great choice for festival-goers who prioritize atmosphere and crowd experience.
Overall Scoring: 3/5
Kandies Krew Spotlight: Nate
For this month’s Kandies Crew Member of the Month, we’re celebrating Nate, one of the most dedicated members of the Kandies World family.
Nate joined the team in April 2019 and, with nearly seven years on the crew, HE IS ONE of our longest running Kandies World team members.
Based in Montreal, he has been a huge part of bringing the Kandies World energy to events over the years and continues to be an incredible presence within the community.
Outside of the booth, Nate also channels his passion for music into his house DJ project, “Turbonate”, where he brings the same high energy and love for the scene to the decks.
We’re so grateful to have had Nate as part of the Kandies World journey for so long and can’t wait to see everything he continues to accomplish. ✨
Q&A Time!
Favorite festival worked?
My favorite event is Shambhala, forever and always, but hulaween and EDC have a special place in my heart. The Gorge is also calling me all the time... I love this place.
What you're most excited for this year?
What I'm most excited for this year is clearly the 30th of EDC, and getting into production!
Looking ahead, the festival season is only getting busier for the Kandies World crew. We have teams gearing up for multiple events in Toronto, along with stops at Hidden City Music Festival, Excision Las Vegas, Forbidden Kingdom, and CORE Los Angeles. With more booths, more kandi trading, and more opportunities to connect with the community, we’re excited to keep the momentum going as festival season continues.
If you’re planning to attend any of these events, keep an eye out for the Kandies World crew and come say hi. We can’t wait to see you on the dancefloor. ✨
