F.P.E: Twenty One Pilots Fan Premier Exhibit – Full Experience!
By Kayla Harper
As a part of their Clancy World Tour, Twenty One Pilots created the F.P.E., which has stood for many things within the tøp lore over the years, but in this case stands for: Fan Premier Exhibit. Fans were given the opportunity to purchase F.P.E. tickets alongside their concert tickets back in July, with a limited number of tickets being available for each show.
The F.P.E. acted as a commemorative experience, featuring memorabilia from each of the band’s album eras, spanning all the way back to their self-titled debut. Included in the exhibit were various photo ops, a lounge consisting of various activities, early pre-show access to merchandise, and an exclusive F.PE. merchandise bag (which includes a signed item).
Since my sister and I have been longterm fans of tøp, and the concert was a birthday present for my sister, I splurged and bought us each an F.P.E. ticket. Continue reading to get an inside look at the entire F.P.E. experience (including photos and videos).
Getting Ready and Waiting In Line
Fans were to line up for the F.P.E. event by 3:00 pm. When my sister and I arrived there was many fans already there, everyone dressed accordingly with red and yellow tape, Clancy beanies and stoles. We got to know the people around us in line as we taught each other and practised the “Stressed Out” handshake, exchanged tøp inspired friendship bracelets as well as participated in and planned fan projects for during the show.
The F.PE. Exclusive Merch
The F.P.E. exclusive merch consisted of a notebook, pin set, art card signed by Tyler and Josh and laminate all in a clear Ned’s Breads bag, inspired by the “Backslide” music video.

The Lounge and Activities
After the exhibit, fans were welcome to hangout in a lounge area where various activities awaited. The first was the opportunity to take a Polaroid photo which would be added to the bands display case of all their F.P.E. fans photos across the tour.
Other activities included writing letters to Tyler and Josh, a recharging station, which consisted of a phone charging station disguised as the Bandito’s campfire, the Bandito camp from the “Paladin Strait” music video, a tape dispensary and refreshments.
