What's shaping this score?
Strong reach and reactions, sentiment needs work
What's Working
People stop and react to Main Square's posts at a rate that lands in the top 25% of festivals worldwide. On Instagram, where the festival posts hardest, that engagement rate sits in the top 25% among Instagram accounts specifically, turning a substantial share of its reach into likes, comments and shares.
Its posts caught more reactions across the run than three quarters of festivals worldwide, and more than all but two festivals in France. Only Hellfest and Vieilles Charrues pulled a bigger haul of total engagements in the country.
Its Reels and TikToks reach above the midpoint of festivals worldwide. The video content travels far enough to build the volume of reactions that follows.
Instagram is where Main Square lands hardest. The platform delivers the festival's biggest reaction haul and the engagement rate there sits in the top 25% among Instagram accounts, a clear strength against the field.
