No matter how you swing it, people are serious about their music festivals.

But, it isn't just about the people who are interested in music festivals but also businesses who are interested in increasing their brand awareness, community outreach, and/or sales. Imagine thousands of potential customers packed in a relatively small area.

Promotions Now built the map above, which shows the "biggest" music festivals per state. It's not only an interesting reference piece for music lovers, but it can also help companies who want to know which festivals to target.

They didn't just look at the amount of people who attended a festival. Promotions Now took into consideration a festival's attendance, the performers, and the general buzz, including how much the media covered it, and how much social media chatter it generated.

In the end, it came up with the festivals in the map above and the list below:
