Editorial context
Why this festival matters
The New Colossus Festival supports the discovery side of RetroAltFest: smaller venues, emerging artists, and alternative scenes that may overlap with post-punk and dark alternative interests. The caveat is that it remains broad and should not be over-labeled.
Verification notes
Confirmed upcoming; broad emerging alternative discovery event. Avoid core goth/darkwave framing.
Parent/multi-venue record only. Do not create a single venue pin or child venue records in this sprint.
