Oxegen remains, to this day, a special time in all of our lives. A dream, almost. Maybe a nightmare for some, but it definitely helped shape the human being you are today. 

And that got us thinking, what if the world had as much of an obsession with Oxegen as it does with Coachella? 

Thankfully, they don’t. But here’s what they’d get a glimpse of if they did.
