Olivia Rodrigo tells festival critics they don't have to buy a ticket

Olivia Rodrigo hosted her inaugural women-focused music festival, Daisy Chain Fields, in Irvine, California. The event, featuring an all-female lineup including Sarah McLachlan and Stevie Nicks, raised $20 million for various women's advocacy organizations such as Planned Parenthood. Rodrigo explicitly characterized the festival as political, stating that critics of its message are not obligated to attend. The festival was inspired by the 1990s Lilith Fair and coincided with the release of her song 'Serena Joy,' which addresses themes of complacency and human rights.
