”This year we will give our fans a new experience that will bring them through a journey on how COLOR was created.”Īlongside its monster lineup, Life in Color will have some brand new adventures for its attendees in the form of “The Paint Factory.” For anyone not looking to camp out on the rail at the front of the crowd, you can still have your chance at getting covered in paint at the factory, where fans can learn about just where it comes from. Joining him will be mix-master Laidback Luke, along with the decidedly trappier Branchez and Bro Safari. This time around, the event promises to be bigger than ever before, headlined by Mad Decent boss Diplo. Last year, Steve Aoki headlined at the Tacoma Dome for a show at the Tacoma Dome that reveled in the craziness of champagne, giant rafts, and of course getting drenched in paint. The Northwest has a long history with Life in Color.
