DON’T MAKE WAVES

Traditionally, "Don’t Make Waves” is a call for conformity and passivity; it means accepting and not questioning what is already established. At TasiFest, we embrace the opposite. Make waves is about being bold, creating impact and transforming the world around us. It's about using music and collective strength of the youth to shape the future, just as the waves shape the shore.
