Musically Fed Continues to Make an Impact at Innings Festival and Extra Innings Festival
Partnering with C3 Presents for the Sixth Year, Musically Fed Rescues Surplus Food to Feed Those in Need
(Phoenix, AZ –2/20/2024) Musically Fed will be onsite at Innings Festival at Tempe, AZ on February 23-24 and Extra Innings Festival on March 1-2 to continue its mission of repurposing unused catering and concessions for community organizations in need. For the sixth consecutive year, the Phoenix-based nonprofit will be on-site, partnering with both festivals to rescue surplus backstage catering, as well as artist and VIP snacks, and transform it into nourishing meals for nonprofits in The Valley.
Innings Festival and Extra Innings Festival are Tempe’s annual can’t-miss celebrations for music lovers and passionate baseball fans during Arizona’s Cactus League Spring Training. The back-to-back weekends feature performances from more than 20 artists across three stages, with completely unique lineups for each weekend, along with family-friendly baseball activities, appearances by Major League Baseball legends and much more from Tempe Beach Park & Arts Park.
Says Tim Sweetwood, producer at C3 Presents, “We are grateful for the ongoing partnership with Musically Fed and the incredible work they do for the community. Together, we're able to make a real difference in the lives of individuals facing food insecurity, and we couldn't do it without Musically Fed's collaboration and support.”
Musically Fed has earned acclaim for its role in leveraging the power of the music industry to combat hunger. By collaborating with artists, promoters, management teams, and venues, the organization collects untouched backstage meals, VIP, and artist catering, redirecting these resources to support community organizations dedicated to serving veterans, individuals experiencing homelessness, and those facing food insecurity nationwide.
Since 2018, Musically Fed’s partnership with C3 Presents and Innings Festival has resulted in the successful distribution of over 6,800 meals, nourishing individuals in need and making a tangible impact in the fight against hunger.
Founded in 2016, Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates all aspects of food handling, transport, and distribution, making it easy for promoters and performers to leave each city they visit with a lasting positive impact.
