Over the weekend, the Kygo Palm Festival became the backdrop for a particularly wholesome encounter: one between the globally acclaimed DJ and a terminally ill dog who shares his name.
The Hamptons were packed last weekend as the Kygo Palm Festival provided another unforgettable experience, with performances by Swedish House Mafia, Sofi Tukker and more. But in the middle of the show, another tender moment was unfolding backstage.
The story of a terminally ill dog named Kygo recently touched the hearts of thousands of people online, and the dog's owner, Ashley, had expressed her sincerest wish for the husky mix to meet his namesake. Suddenly the wish came true after DJ Kygo invited dog Kygo to Southampton for the festival.
The reunion was a touching reminder of the bond between humans and their furry companions. The Norwegian dance music superstar welcomed the dog with open arms and gave him a Palm Tree Crew scarf. The dog's owner reciprocated with a “Kygo Krew” hat and a T-shirt with his face on it.

The touching reunion was part of a whirlwind weekend for Kygo, who also celebrated the release of his self-titled album. From the synthwave-inspired “Surrender” to the vulnerable dance anthem “Me Before You,” KYGO showcases the producer's evolution as an artist while staying true to the inspiring sound his fans love.
The moving meeting was facilitated by The dogist, a popular dog-focused Instagram account. Dog Kygo's story first gained attention on the platform, leading to a $10,000 donation from the Brady Hunter Foundation to help his owner with treatment costs.
