Madness by the numbers: The surprising statistics of TomorrowWorld
TomorrowWorld has completed its first year in Chattahoochee Hills and the general discussion surrounding the event has been without a doubt positive. Most events promoted months in advance fail to meet expectations – TomorrowWorld answered the call with off the charts production, a boisterous international crowd, and artists that delivered.
