  • One Day, One Spring Break Never Say Never Festival Reaches Sixth Consecutive Year by Elisa Garcia the Sun Was Shining March 12 A
    One day, one spring break Never Say Never Festival reaches sixth consecutive year By Elisa Garcia The sun was shining March 12 as nearly 5,000 people gathered to enjoy a day of non-stop music. DontGetEmo concerts hosted its sixth annual Never Say Never Festival (NSN) and welcomed a lineup of more than 35 bands to perform on four stages, such as Bring Me the Horizon, Asking ​ ​ ​ Alexandria and Of Mice & Men. ​ ​ NSN is a multi-stage festival held in Mission, Texas every March during spring break. The music festival brings together performances in rock and roll, hip-hop, indie, pop punk, electronica and other genres. Zar Castillo, co-creator of NSN along with George Culberson, explained that starting this one-day festival was not an easy process. Both put their own money together and began to build their vision piece by piece. “I remember having the first festival in 2009 and having $30 in my bank account,” the Mission native said. “Yet in the middle of the fest, doing this $100,000 project, I was like ‘I don’t know how we’re doing this, it’s going, it’s happening.’” While coming up with the idea of a one-day concert, Castillo said his vision received negativity from local businesses, people and friends. Castillo said he and Culberson had backlash such as, ‘It sounds like it’s not worth it,’ and ‘The market down here is never going to accept it.’ “After hearing all this negativity, that’s how the name Never Say Never came about,” the 29-year-old said.
