About T1 Fest

Our Passion

To Create awareness and support the fight against Type 1 Diabetes through the Power of Music and Community 

Starting With a Beat! T1 Fest was started by friends Jim Costanzo and Joe Inglima, when Joe’s son was diagnosed at age three with Type 1 diabetes, also known as T1D. The inaugural T1 fest was held in November of 2019 with performances by Smoking Popes, The Lillingtons, Brendan Kelly (Lawrence Arms), Flatfoot 56, The Brokedowns, and Dan Vapid & The Cheats. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 in-person show was postponed, so T1 Fest put on a livestream with performances by Dan Vapid, Jen Pop and Poli van Dam of the Bombpops, Zoanoids, Haley and The Crushers, and Capgun Heroes. This made it possible to reach thousands of people from all around the world, who donated and helped continue the goal of raising awareness and supporting leading organizations in their work to find a cure.

Additional Information

What Is Type 1 Diabetes? 

Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas are mistakenly destroyed by the body’s immune system. T1D can be diagnosed early in life, but also in adulthood. Its cause is not fully known, and there is no cure. People with T1D are dependent on injected or pumped insulin to survive. Managing the disease is underinsured and results in thousands of dollars in out of pockets expenses annually. Families are often made to choose between treatment and necessities. Left untreated, it can cause severe symptoms, life-threatening complications and death.
