Partnering with HSN for their fourth tour in two years, and surpassing the $1MM mark in school donations together, is Takis: “We support initiatives that promote music and the arts within high schools. By helping foster student passion for music, we are able to introduce the intensity of Takis flavors and at the same time help spark the intensity that students have for the arts.” –Araceli Gomez, Global Marketing Manager

During the 26-city Festival Tour, High School Nation will take over football stadiums on each of the campuses and present a 2-hour concert and festival that will celebrate the arts in public schools. Along with a strong showcase for music appreciation, the festival will highlight journalism, film, fine & performing arts, fashion, photography, and stage production. Students will visit interactive zones including the Full Sail University Media Zone, Guitar Center Music Zone, Crayola Art With Edge Zone, The Style Zone, and the Truth Truck. Each school will receive a donation package from High School Nation, totaling over ten thousand ($10,000) per campus.

HSN Founders Jimmy Cantillon and Kevin Cantillon had this to say about the tour: “For High School Nation to have surpassed one million dollars in donations, with the support of Takis, is a real dream for us. It’s important to us to support creative expression among teens. We’re honored to do our part to keep the arts alive.”
