The festival was livestreamed on YouTube during both weekends for the first time.[6]

On April 6, 2019, Christopher Griffin, 49, the festival lead rigger of twenty years, died on the festival campgrounds after sustaining fatal injuries.[36] Griffin fell from the stage scaffolding while working on the festival setup.[37]
On April 22, 2019, The Daily Beast published a report of the alleged "inhumane treatment" of the festival security guards, citing poor tent conditions, insufficient food and water, long hours in the harsh sun, minimum wages and poor coordination between the organizers and the subcontracting security firms.[38]
