A lost Canon Powershot camera found at Perry’s stage during Lollapalooza sparked a wave of community-driven detective work on Reddit’s r/lollapalooza. The aim? To reconnect the camera — and its precious photos — with its rightful owners, two women seen in the images.
The Reddit thread quickly filled with practical tips and platform-specific advice. Top recommendations focused on leveraging local EDM-focused Facebook groups like “EDM Chicago,” TikTok’s viral potential, and the rave-centric Radiate app community. One user even claimed to recognize one of the women, offering an Instagram handle (@cocobianca23), although further checks showed this handle inactive. Other possible leads include an active Instagram account (@cocolee) and a Pinterest profile that might be related, but no definitive ties to the camera owners were confirmed.
A lighthearted comment joked that the camera’s photos look like they’re straight out of the early 2000s, adding nostalgic flair to the hunt. While social media profiles linked to “Bianca” remain inconclusive, the community’s collaborative approach shows the power of niche festival and EDM networks in solving small mysteries.
