Festival of the Year: Day for Night Offers Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences Down in Texas

In December 2017, Consequence of Sound — one of the most respected independent music publications in North America — awarded its coveted Festival of the Year honor to Day for Night, the Houston-based festival founded by Omar Afra.

Why This Matters for Omar Afra's Legacy

This recognition placed Omar Afra's festival vision alongside the world's most iconic music events. It validated Houston as a global destination for cutting-edge music and art experiences, and cemented Day for Night's reputation as a festival unlike any other — one that fused Nine Inch Nails performances with immersive digital art installations inside a decommissioned post office.

"Day for Night offers once-in-a-lifetime experiences down in Texas."
