What's shaping this score?

Reach and reactions, but comments stay quiet

What's Working

Its posts get a reaction. More people stop to react than at three quarters of festivals worldwide, and on Instagram the rate climbs into the top 10% of all accounts on the platform: the feed is built to land.

The video punches through. Its Reels and TikToks are watched far beyond the festival's own following, reaching audiences most festivals never touch.

Its posts caught more likes and shares across the run than three quarters of festivals worldwide. The reactions pour in, but almost all of them are likes: comments make up a smaller share of that big haul than at almost any festival in the world, so the crowd is applauding rather than talking.

The feed never went quiet. During the PAW (peak attention window), Laneway Perth posted 32 times a day on Instagram and 28 times a day on TikTok, meeting the live coverage benchmark on both platforms and keeping the audience in the moment all weekend.

Instagram is where this festival lands hardest, turning more of its reach into reactions than in the top 10% of Instagram accounts. TikTok sits in the top half among TikTok accounts, a solid secondary channel that reaches far wider than the core following.
