BOOK MORE WOMEN ANNOUNCES RELAUNCH AND FISCAL SPONSORSHIP STATUS
New Initiatives Aim to Support Artists and Expose Systemic Industry Barriers.
March 13, 2026 (Boston, MA) // After eight years of serving as the music festival industry’s watchdog for gender parity, Book More Women announced today its official relaunch as a fiscally sponsored project of Fractured Atlas and active pursuit of their own 501(c)(3) status. The move marks a strategic shift from “awareness to action,” triggered by new 2025 data revealing the first decline in festival lineup gender diversity in nearly ten years and is accompanied by the organization’s first crowdfunding campaign.
Since its inception in 2018, Book More Women has analyzed over 500 festival lineups, documenting an increase in female and nonbinary representation from 28% to a peak of 40% in 2024 (acts featuring at least one woman or nonbinary musician). However, 2025 year-end data exposed a reversal, indicating that awareness campaigns alone are no longer sufficient.
