This year also has Super Art Fight where artist will battle to be the best artist with live music
"For those unfamiliar with Super Art Fight – an “art fight” consists of two (or more) artists battling against each other with drawn art on a large six foot tall by twelve foot wide canvas. Each artist is given a starting topic, and a twenty five minute time limit to run wild. Artists are allowed and encouraged to have their art “attacking” their opponents art, and if an artist leaves their art open, their opponent is allowed to add to, or otherwise complete, what the artist has left unfinished. Additionally, every five minutes, artists receive new, randomized topics from the crowd-sourced topic generator called The Wheel of Death - the artists must add these topics to the art created thus far. At the end of the bout, the live audience picks the winners, battle of the bands style, based on cheers and applause."
