Attention all wanna-be designers and graphic artists: design a T-shirt for "Festival 8", the band’s upcoming three-day Halloween festival in southern California and you could be the lucky winner of two tickets to the event. You’ll also receive five of the winning shirts and the pleasure of your design commemorating Phish’s spectacular Halloween weekend.

Submissions must be sent digitally (JPEGs only, under 2 megabytes please, but the art can be compressed for submission purposes) to festival8contest@phish.com . All submissions must be received by Friday, September 11 at NOON EST. Be sure to include your full name and a way to reach you by phone day and evening. While it’s not necessary, we suggest that you put the words "Phish" and "Festival 8" somewhere on your design. However, you may not use any pre-existing Phish or "Festival 8" logos in your design. Both front and back designs are welcome, but not necessary — just a front will suffice as an entry. The use of Comic Sans or Curlz will automatically disqualify you. By entering the contest, you acknowledge full and unconditional acceptance and agreement of the Contest Rules: https://phish.com/festival8/contestrules.html.

Festival 8, a three-day Phish festival will take place on October 30th, 31st and November 1st at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. With lush green fields and palm trees, and surrounded by vistas of California’s majestic Santa Rosa mountains, the festival site is simply breathtaking. And for the first time ever, Phish will combine two of its most cherished traditions – a multi-day camping festival and performing on Halloween – in a glorious three-day celebration.
