Philosophy
editIn The Away From Home Global Streaming Event, Tomlinson revealed that he always wanted to do a festival since he was in One Direction but it never happened. His idea it was to give back as he values live music and real connection with the fans. In 2021, when the festival started the inicial purpose it was to celebrate live music being back after the COVID pandemic and lockdown, but it also transformed in a platform to showcase new artists and to show his fans the bands that he loves and spends his time listening to.[15]
Tomlinson told NME, that the development stage of band's careers it always been something interested to him because it's one of the most excting times and that's really important to him -any way he can - to help and benefit any band in that stage.[16] During his Louis Tomlinson World Tour and Faith In The Future World Tour he gave new bands and up-and-coming artists the change to be his openers.[17]
