Apple Cash took a prominent role at the All Things Go DC music festival, giving users access to dedicated festival entry and merchandise lines alongside an on-site activation offering slushies and exclusive charms.
The festival encouraged attendees to set up Apple Cash in Wallet before arriving at Merriweather Post Pavilion, promoting the service as a way to move through dedicated entry and merch lines more quickly.
All Things Go confirmed the Apple Cash perks on its official festival site, which also listed the Chrysalis Stage as being presented by Apple Cash and Visa.
Apple Cash perks went beyond festival entry
At the Apple Cash activation, festivalgoers were invited to try the service in exchange for slushies and exclusive charms, with promotional signage around the pop-up directing attendees to set up Apple Cash in seconds.
Other signage seen at the festival promoted sending money through group chats in Messages, highlighting how Apple Cash can be used to send and receive money directly between users.

Footage from the event also showed “Apple Cash Only” branding around the activation itself. The signage appears to relate to the Apple Cash pop-up rather than suggesting Apple Cash was the only payment method accepted across the wider festival.
The promotion formed part of a wider partnership between All Things Go, Apple Cash and Visa, bringing the service into the festival experience through faster entry, merchandise access and the branded activation.
Apple Cash is built into Apple Wallet in the United States and allows users to send and receive money through Wallet and Messages. Apple Cash services are provided by Green Dot Bank.
