The Decibel Festival was an annual music and digital arts festival in Seattle, Washington, which featured live electronic music performance, visual arts, and new media.[1]

History

The festival was launched in 2003 by Sean Horton[2] and a team of volunteer staff. The festival consisted of concerts, performances, film screenings, exhibitions, panels, lectures, workshops, and commissioned works across locations throughout Seattle, including the Capitol Hill neighborhood and Downtown Seattle.[1]

Audiences grew from 2,500 to 25,000 over the festivals 12 years.[3]

Following years of unsuccessful efforts to become a non-profit organization, and Horton's move to LA to work for Red Bull, The Decibel Festival ended in 2015. This was described by the founder as an "extended break."[4]

Since 2015, Decibel has continued to host and promote smaller events, describing itself as "a Los Angeles-based event/production company."[1] These events are chronicled on the organization's social media.

Decibel organized a weekend of events in 2023 to celebrate of 20-years of Decibel. The event title was stylized as DecibelXX.[5]
