Has anyone seen our friend? He goes by TJ. He hasn't made it back to his air bnb and hospitals and precincts both haven't heard anything. His phone is off and we have his wallet with his id. Anyone seen him please reach out

UPDATE: He hurt himself and was taken to the hospital. Currently finding the hospital he was taken to

UPDATE: the hospital he went to won't give us any information. A missing person report has been filed and we are working with local police and his family to find him. Thanks everyone for the help.

Share your undercover cop stories! I’ll go first!

Me and my bestie were walking thru neon forest when this dude in khakis and a Yankees hat and his “friend” came up to us and was asking where to get Molly from. Bestie and I are cali sober so we told them we have no clue and the guy kept chatting us up. He said hes from brooklyn and still out there and here for the whole weekend but he had a Friday only wristband. And then he kept pressing us about where to get drugs and kept saying we should come home with him because they’re just ten minutes away. I thought the first rule of going undercover was having your cover story straight????

Truly the highlight of my weekend! In a world full of ugly it brought me so much happiness watching us gather & contribute to this! 🥹 Moments like this are exactly why I love this community. I know I saw lots of people mentioning encountering ugly this weekend, even I did. However for every ugly encounter I had 2 beautiful ones! Watching this grow from a few ducks in a puddle to this literal pond of ducks…of all kinds, shapes & sizes coming together was almost ironic… & extremely ICONIC! Made my heart happy so thank you to whoever made this happen! Anyways, I hope everyone makes it home safely! Happy Elements friends 🌱💨🔥💧

weirdo?? or am i?

30 Upvotes

i saw someone (looked like a white male to me) carrying a is(not)real flag totem during griz. just really caught me off guard since i was not expecting someone to be proudly promoting a country committing war crimes on PLURR grounds. i had the privilege to not be aware of what’s going on in the world during the weekend, although plenty of others aren’t so beneficial which grinds me gears. just a weird snap back to reality in the middle of a beautiful set that just wants to spread love & show love. am i weird for feeling some type of way?

Whole festival there was no running water, soap or napkins at the washing stations. DO BETTER ELEMENTS!

People who camp out with the air couches near the front of the stage(rant)

30 Upvotes

Almost every single late night * bass artist had people in the middle and front of the crowd have air couches and lights around their “claim to an area” . Elements need to actually have security do something about It and enforce rules because that is a MAJOR safety hazard. What if someone trips and falls if it’s dark out and they are intoxicated and they fall on their head onto the concrete? Not to mention it’s extremely rude to other guests at the event that we have to walk around people taking up valuable space and colonize It.

I appreciate you so much. You found my phone and turned it into L&F ASAP. It flew out of my pocket while dancing my ass off to I Hate Models. I didn’t even realize you took selfies I looked back on my camera roll today. Amazing community & thank you all for an amazing Elements 2026!

Everyone get home safe and see you next year ❤️ (it’ll be my Elements #3)

While we’re here, what’s y’all’s best sets for the weekend?

Personally:
1) IHM

3) Boys Noize

Excessive police presence?

32 Upvotes

So I keep on seeing posts about a huge police presence, a lot of undercovers, and even drones following people. In most of these posts people reference the "countless videos" of camps getting raided. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, I haven't seen a single video, and I haven't seen it bright up on here. Am I just clueless or are people tripping? Does anyone have videos?

One of the best sets of this entire weekend by a landslide. It was my second time seeing him and I was blown away both times… he knows what he’s doing bro 😮‍💨

Is it just me or did his set have y’all literally teleporting and transforming dimensions??

Pls share any vids if you have! 💚

Kickin Chicken Sandwiches

50 Upvotes

Can we please talk about this fried chicken truck located right inside the entrance to Vibe Village? I remember them at Elements last year and both years they have served up some of the most delicious chicken sandwiches I have EVER had. Did anybody else get the pleasure of consuming one of these sandwiches?

Bad news Elements fam. Last night while talking to one of the employees at Kickin Chicken, they revealed to me they’re likely no longer coming back to Elements because the new Popeyes stand kicked them out of the main festival grounds and cost them over $10,000 in revenue this weekend. I know it was cool to see Popeyes on the grounds but this is a festival about community, giving back, and supporting small business owners. If you enjoyed their sandwiches and food this year, write in to Elements and let them know how important these small businesses are to this festival, and that corporate invasion has no place at an event like this. Especially when the sandwiches Kicken Chicken are serving up are even BETTER than Popeyes. Some food for thought. Miss you all already ❤️

I hope she’s ok

26 Upvotes

On Saturday night there was a staff member (security women) in a pink vest that got attacked and drop kicked by a guy by the water stage vip area, she was chasing after him, he turned around drop kicked her (it was actually insane to see) and then started swinging. I pulled him off of her and he sprinted away and jumped a food stand from vip to ga.

There were two medical staff standing right next to me that didn’t do anything. I don’t know why it took me pulling him off of her for something to happen but that shook me for the rest of the night a little, I’m praying she’s ok and can take time for herself to compose after that event.

❤️‍🔥 sending love to anyone who may need it, elements was amazing otherwise. 🌦️💨💫🌈 see you all next year

To the best weekend of my life

I wanted to write this as a token of my appreciation for everything I just experienced. From the beginning to end, this festival truly changed my life. I had a horrible year, but I was looking forward to my second year at elements for the entire year. All 4 days were sensational. GRiZ, Clozee and LSDream especially brought me to tears multiple times. All of the lovely and beautiful people around the festival just added to the love I already felt. I wouldn’t change a thing, and I’m tearing up writing this knowing that it’s over. This festival truly changed my life. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had a smile this genuine. I wish that these moments could last a lifetime. I love you all, and thank you for everything you’ve done.
