VOLUNTARY, REWARDED, AND VIRTUOUS.
Milan Slick, 1st artist to test trêve
WE ARE CREATING THE STANDARD
TO PUT THE PHONES AWAY:
FOR AUDIENCES: a simple way to disconnect and reconnect to the artist and culture with a special bonus.
FOR EVERYONE: joining a movement.
FOR THE ARTIST, MANAGER AND ORGANIZER: disconnection builds a direct connection to the audience, both during and after the event.
TRÊVE IS THE ONLY NO PHONE SOLUTION TAILORED TO LIVE CULTURE.
And it shows:
trêve guarantees you leave with memories, creating the right conditions for audiences to disconnect, and elevate their experience.
trêve isn’t anti-technology; trêve is pro-culture.
Let's honor the « during »: the one part of an experience that can never be replayed.
Not just the choice of disconnection, but also joining a movement with a strong purpose : keeping culture alive.
BECAUSE DISCONNECTION IS A MATTER OF CHOICE:
Phone pouches respond to that by forcing and punishing.
Digital detox apps respond by treating users like patients.
trêve responds by giving audiences the choice back.
For thirty years, digital usage has grown exponentially, we never really had time to ask ourselves whether we wanted this in the first place.
HYPERCONNEXION AFFECTS CULTURE AT LARGE:
From concerts and DJ sets to museums and cinemas, existing solutions fail because they misunderstand what audiences actually need.
Phone pouches create anxiety, bans create hostility.
They punish the audience instead of addressing a core need:
FANS WANT TO WALK AWAY WITH A PIECE OF THE EXPERIENCE
OUR STORY:
It became clear: there was no effective disconnection standard that actually respects the audience, the artist, and the venue.
trêve was born at a June 2025 Nick Cave concert.
Though the show was "phone-free," it quickly devolved into bodyguards flashing lights at the entire crowd to stop them from filming.
