Twenty thousand people each day, an expected $20 million boost to the local economy, and a worldwide audience of more than 100,000.
Those are the quick-fire stats of this year's One Love Festival.
This year's
event was so good it had organiser Pato Alvarez calling it the "best one yet".
I don't disagree and the Bay of Plenty is certainly thankful for the millions of dollars expected to be pumped into the region because of it.
