Doritos and “Stranger Things” Head Back to 1986 for “Live from the Upside Down” Concert in June
On store shelves now, you can find “Stranger Things” -branded bags of Doritos snacks, and the collaboration is all building to a special “ Live from the Upside Down ” event this summer.
We now have full details for the “Live from the Upside Down” event, which is being presented in the form of a digital concert experience on Thursday, June 23, 2022 .
“The story goes that back in 1986, a tour bus crashed near Hawkins, Ind., headed to Doritos Music Fest ’86 – the greatest concert that never happened. The musicians disappeared into another dimension and the show was canceled… until now.
“Doritos opened a portal and is now inviting fans to virtually step inside to watch these ’80s music icons perform during “Live From The Upside Down.” The can’t-miss lineup features ’80s headliners including The Go-Go ‘s lighting up the stage to fan favorites like “We Got the Beat” and “Our Lips are Sealed,” Corey Hart singing “Sunglasses at Night” and “Never Surrender,” and Soft Cell performing “Tainted Love.” As the fans are pulled deeper into the Upside Down, they will be shocked to see decade-defying pop star Charli XCX take the stage and perform a surprise collaboration with one of the ’80s bands.”
“It’s one thing to be able to share my music with my fans but having the opportunity to perform alongside some of the most iconic bands and singers is truly something out of this world,” said Charli XCX. “Doritos is doing something really cool by giving Stranger Things fans a new way to celebrate their favorite show with ‘Live From The Upside Down.’ I can’t wait for everyone to join us for this concert!”
Doritos will be the only way into the concert, so you can pick up a bag of Doritos or Doritos 3D Crunch featuring the limited-time Stranger Things packaging while they’re on store shelves or visit Doritos.com/StrangerThings to reserve your ticket and pick up exclusive merch!
In addition to the “Live From The Upside Down” concert, Doritos is releasing a new limited-time flavor – Doritos 3D Crunch Three Cheese TM – chips literally featuring another dimension. Doritos 3D Crunch Three Cheese brings together cheddar, Monterey Jack and parmesan cheese with a three-dimensional crunch that’s bursting with flavor. The newest limited-time flavor joins six other flavors – Doritos 3D Crunch Spicy Ranch, Doritos 3D Crunch Chili Cheese Nacho, Doritos Nacho Cheese, Doritos Cool Ranch, Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili, and Doritos Spicy Nacho – that will all feature the limited-edition Stranger Things packaging. To up the ante, fans who find exclusive “golden” tickets hidden across three 3D Crunch flavors – Three Cheese, Spicy Ranch and Chili Cheese Nacho – will win an official replica of the guitar prominently featured in Stranger Things 4.
“Stranger Things 4” comes to Netflix on May 27, 2022 with “Volume One” of the latest season. Volume 2 of “Stranger Things 4” will then arrive on Netflix on July 1, 2022.

“Stranger Things 5” – Here’s Your First Official Look at the Final Season! [Video]
“Batman: The Animated Series” – Revisiting the Horrors of “House & Garden”
When it comes to Batman’s gallery of rogues, Pamela Isley a.k.a. Poison Ivy remains one of the more bizarre and maniacal. This beautiful botanist turned mad eco-terrorist is now best known for being Harley Quinn’s greener half, yet Poison Ivy proved to be a worthy foe all on her own. Batman: The Animated Series alone well illustrated her twisted sense of environmentalism. And in the few instances where Ivy was shown working in a solo capacity, she had a habit of shocking and disgusting the Caped Crusader with her exploits.
Over the course of The Animated Series (later retitled The Adventures of Batman & Robin ) , Poison Ivy had only three individual outings — four if we count her pumpkin plot in “Almost Got ‘Im”. Her debut, “Pretty Poison”, established her cracked moral compass and utter disregard for humans. After the more intimate crime of poisoning Harvey Dent, Ivy went bigger and bolder in “Eternal Youth”; she targeted all those she accused of ecological malfeasance. Once again, Ivy’s plan hit close to home for Bruce Wayne/Batman when her special brand of green derangement nearly turned Alfred Pennyworth into a tree. It was then Batman realized he was not dealing with a common criminal anymore. No, Poison Ivy was, in Batman’s words, someone “with the convictions of a fanatic.”
Poison Ivy’s villany peaked in her final “true” appearance in the series (more on that later). In “ House & Garden ”, plant-related burglaries and poisonings have Batman suspecting Ivy is back to her old tricks. However, much to Batman’s surprise, Pamela has turned over a new leaf. Or so she says. Freed from Arkham, and now married to a professor and mother to his two sons from a previous marriage, the former Miss Isley has hung up her nom-de-crime and wristbow. A visit to hers and her family’s Rockwellian home suggests this is the truth. Of course, Batman can’t shake his bad feeling. Not necessarily because he wants Pamela to be guilty, but because he doesn’t want her to squander this second chance at life.
![upside down tour 86 Batman](https://i0.wp.com/bloody-disgusting.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Batman-the-Animated-Series-House-and-Garden-Pamela-Gordon-Chris-Kelly-Steven.jpg?resize=740%2C557&ssl=1)
Pictured: In Pamela’s house, Batman and Commissioner Gordon meet the former Poison Ivy’s husband Steven and kids Chris and Kelly.
It is in this Paul Dini -penned and Boyd Kirkland -directed episode where Poison Ivy’s pathos is made loud and clear. As she explains to Batman and Commissioner Gordon, the tradeoff for her hyper immune system is infertility. A hard truth that came up once Pamela felt her maternal instinct kicking in. This admission of hers is a bracing moment of vulnerability which Batman never thought possible. Especially from a woman whose history is best characterized by her misanthropy.
Just when Batman is ready to leave things as they are, the abduction and ransom of his ward, Dick Grayson/Robin, signals another urgent investigation of Pamela. Her house vines doubling as an organic security system would suggest Ivy is up to no good, but again, she emphasizes to the Dark Knight she is, for the first time in her life, happy. Why would she risk that? Why indeed. Batman seems convinced until Robin later catches both his partner and the audience off guard; in a chilling rug-pull, Robin states the professor has two daughters , not two sons.
The remainder of “House & Garden” contains some of the most disturbing imagery and villain unmasking in Batman: The Animated Series . Poison Ivy’s wicked intent here involves an appalling degree of criminality that makes her previous outings look relatively sane. In her latest misuse of science, Ivy has created a family on her own terms. To be more specific, these plant-based, humanoid lifeforms were enhanced by the unwilling husband’s DNA. As if this revelation couldn’t be any more unsettling with its implications, the episode dishes out a visual sequence that makes even Batman sick to his stomach.
Horror was rare and infrequent but not unheard of in this iteration of Batman . More often than not, though, the horror was psychological. Both Clayface and Two-Face demonstrated the show’s penchant for manifesting emotional breakdowns; these villains’ mental collapses were visceral and heartbreaking. Yet for “House & Garden”, the show approached horror in a different way. This cartoon take on Invasion of the Body Snatchers finds Ivy’s “children” being born from plant pods and then hauntingly crying for their “mommy.” Batman’s reaction to the sight says it all. Fans continue to have a hard time scrubbing that scene from their brains.
![upside down tour 86 Batman](https://i0.wp.com/bloody-disgusting.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Batman-the-Animated-Series-House-and-Garden-plant-babies.jpg?resize=740%2C557&ssl=1)
Pictured: The Caped Crusaders learn the truth about Ivy’s “children.”
Parts of “House & Garden” are indeed ghastly, but the whole story is tragic. Poison Ivy is, with little argument, at her absolute worst here while still remaining rather sympathetic. She commits one violation of the human body after the other, and she possibly never pays for her wrongdoings. At least not in a legal sense. And as the real Poison Ivy makes her escape by plane in the episode’s conclusion, you see how the ordeal has affected her. Perhaps Batman was right in his closing statement: Ivy wasn’t lying about being happy for the first time in her life.
Fans may not realize this, but “House & Garden” was addressed in the tie-in comic series Batman Adventures (2003–2004). In a four-page story (“The Flower Girl”) found in Volume 2, Issue 16, the fate of Ivy was given in a belated epilogue. A scientist named Alec Holland — yes, that Alec Holland — is approached one night by a plant humanoid claiming to be Pamela Isley. Much to Alec’s horror, this creature perishes right before him. That is when the actual Pamela shows up to explain how their unexpected guest was another of her plant clones left behind to keep Batman busy and Harley Quinn company. This afterword is not confirmed as canon, yet the thought of Ivy living a normal, crime-free life should please her fans.
The Batman showrunners have since said the network was quite permissive and supportive during production; there was little to no resistance to the staff’s ideas most of the time. Even in an envelope-pushing, twist-after-twist story like “House & Garden”, Fox went with the flow. The results speak for themselves because fans still cite this as one of the most memorable episodes of the entire series.
Revisit “House & Garden” on Amazon Prime Video , and then after, watch the new animated series Batman: Caped Crusader .

Pictured: In Batman Adventures , it’s revealed all future appearances of Poison Ivy in the DCAU are owed to a plant clone.

Doritos and Stranger Things are Throwing an '80s Music Festival—in the Upside Down
A virtual concert celebrates the hit netflix thriller's long-awaited fourth season.
![doritos-stranger-things-2022 Doritos and Stranger Things are Throwing an 80s Music Festival—in the Upside Down](https://static-prod.adweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/doritos-stranger-things-2022-652x342.jpg)
With C-suite leaders from iconic brands keynoting sessions, leading workshops and attending networking events, Brandweek is the place to be for marketing innovation and problem-solving. Register to attend September 23–26 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Have you heard about the biggest ’80s music festival that never was? Storytellers say that Doritos Music Fest ’86 was poised to be the biggest event of the year … until the tour bus crashed near Hawkins, Indiana and the musicians disappeared into another dimension. It was the strangest thing.
Fear not, pop rock enthusiasts. 36 years later, the brand is making up for lost time by teaming up with Netflix ‘s Stranger Things for “Live From the Upside Down,” a virtual concert celebrating the arrival of the hit thriller’s long-awaited fourth season. For this, the fans are invited to step inside a portal located in the fictional town of Hawkins and witness an ’80s era lineup that includes The Go-Go’s, Soft Cell, Corey Hart and special modern-day guest Charli XCX.
The brand worked with Observatory and Slap Global on the campaign, which kicked off with a retro 30-second video sharing the show’s “history” and ’80s lineup.
The concert experience—at home
Although the show won’t be happening in a crowded arena or in the middle of a sweltering Californian desert, the brand is still aiming to recreate a familiar concert ethos by supplying the event with exclusive merch. “Live From the Upside Down” t-shirts, bags and posters will be available for purchase on the event’s webpage .
Fans will also have a chance to win an official replica of the special-edition guitar, featured in Stranger Things 4, by finding one of three “golden ticket” hidden in bags of Doritos 3D. Participating flavors include Spicy Ranch, Chili Cheese Nacho and the new, limited-edition Three Cheese.
Concertgoers can access the show via information found on specially marked, Stranger Things-themed Doritos and Doritos 3D bags, or they can visit the event’s webpage to register for a free ticket. “Live From the Upside Down” will stream on June 23, nearly a month after the May 27 release of Stranger Things 4.

Doritos is drawing tortilla chips into the scary Upside Down by taking the brand in a new direction in partnership with Netflix ahead of the Stranger Things season 4 premiere.
The snack brand is offering up a multidimensional fan experience centered on a virtual concert that will draw together some of the biggest names from the eighties – including Soft Cell and The Go-Go’s – as well as Charli XCX.
Playing to nostalgia, ‘Live From The Upside Down’ is billed as a lost concert after a tour bus headed for Doritos Music Fest 86 crashed, throwing all the musicians onboard into a topsy-turvy alternate dimension.
The wacky premise pertains to the limited-run release of Doritos 3D Crunch Three Cheese, a chip that reaches out into all the spatial dimensions available to cram as much cheese on to a tortilla chip (and into a concert) as possible.
The catch is that the only way to get a ticket is to grab a bag of Doritos or Doritos 3D Crunch to open the necessary trans-dimensional portal that will transport fans to a concert experience that has been 36 years in the making.
To complete the spacetime-bending experience, fans will be able to commemorate the event in our own universe by purchasing exclusive concert merchandise.
Stranger Things has previously worked its magic to turn the Burger King brand upside down.

DORITOS® PARTNERS WITH NETFLIX’S STRANGER THINGS TO BRING FANS THE FIRST-EVER “LIVE FROM THE UPSIDE DOWN” CONCERT FEATURING CHARLI XCX AND ‘80s MUSIC LEGENDS
May 10, 2022
Limited-edition Doritos bags open the portal for access to the virtual concert on June 23.
Hold onto your cassette tapes because the highly anticipated Stranger Things 4 premiere is this month and Doritos, in partnership with Netflix, is bringing fans a musical experience unlike any other with the first-ever “Live From The Upside Down” virtual concert on June 23.
The story goes that back in 1986, a tour bus crashed near Hawkins, Ind., headed to Doritos Music Fest ‘86 – the greatest concert that never happened. The musicians disappeared into another dimension and the show was canceled… until now. Doritos opened a portal and is now inviting fans to virtually step inside to watch these ‘80s music icons perform during “Live From The Upside Down.” The can’t-miss lineup features ‘80s headliners including The Go-Go’s lighting up the stage to fan favorites like “We Got the Beat” and “Our Lips are Sealed,” Corey Hart singing “Sunglasses at Night” and “Never Surrender,” and Soft Cell performing “Tainted Love.” As the fans are pulled deeper into the Upside Down, they will be shocked to see decade-defying pop star Charli XCX take the stage and perform a surprise collaboration with one of the ‘80s bands.
“It’s one thing to be able to share my music with my fans but having the opportunity to perform alongside some of the most iconic bands and singers is truly something out of this world,” said Charli XCX. “Doritos is doing something really cool by giving Stranger Things fans a new way to celebrate their favorite show with ‘Live From The Upside Down.’ I can’t wait for everyone to join us for this concert!”
Doritos will be the only way into the concert, so fans can pick up a bag of Doritos or Doritos 3D Crunch featuring the limited-time Stranger Things packaging while they’re on store shelves or visit Doritos.com/StrangerThings to reserve their ticket.
“Doritos and Netflix Stranger Things are the perfect combination because we are truly taking it back to 1986 where it all started,” said Caio Correa, senior marketing director, Frito-Lay North America. “This is the year the original Doritos Cool Ranch flavor was brought to market and the year this season of Stranger Things takes place. Talk about a strange coincidence! We can’t wait for our fans to join us and Netflix for this first-of-its-kind ‘Live From The Upside Down’ concert.”
“Partnering with Doritos on Stranger Things was a no-brainer for us,” said Magno Herran, director of marketing partnerships, Netflix. “We’re always looking for ways to give back to our fans and drive conversation in the real world, and Doritos is a bold brand partner who was willing to head into the Upside Down, face a demogorgon or two, and bring some of the best music of the ’80s to fans in a truly unexpected way.”
Stranger Things Partnership Unlocks New Doritos Limited-Edition Flavor In addition to the “Live From The Upside Down” concert, Doritos is releasing a new limited-time flavor – Doritos 3D Crunch Three CheeseTM – chips literally featuring another dimension. Doritos 3D Crunch Three Cheese brings together cheddar, Monterey jack and parmesan cheese with a three-dimensional crunch that’s bursting with flavor. The newest limited-time flavor joins six other flavors – Doritos 3D Crunch Spicy Ranch, Doritos 3D Crunch Chili Cheese Nacho, Doritos Nacho Cheese, Doritos Cool Ranch, Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili, and Doritos Spicy Nacho – that will all feature the limited-edition Stranger Things packaging. To up the ante, fans who find exclusive “golden” tickets hidden across three 3D Crunch flavors – Three Cheese, Spicy Ranch and Chili Cheese Nacho – will win an official replica of the guitar prominently featured in Stranger Things 4.
Custom Concert Merchandise Gets Fans Ready for the Concert
No concert is complete without the perfect swag to commemorate the experience. Skip the line and purchase your own one-of-a-kind “Live From The Upside Down” merchandise at Doritos.com/StrangerThings. As part of a bundle with chips, consumers can get their hands on:
- T-shirts: The ultimate concert staple. Enough said.
- Bags: As you make your way into the Upside Down, you of course need a place to store the essentials like a flashlight to see in front of you, a camera to document your experience and your Doritos 3D Crunch Three Cheese in case you run into a demogorgon (or realistically if you need something to snack on).
- Poster: Spice it up with a concert poster, but brace yourself in the middle of the night, because something may pop out and snatch you back into the Upside Down.

“It’s an infectious excitement coming from him directly manifesting through the band and into the audience leaving everyone in a euphoric state.”
