Note that Vintage Computer Festivals refers to a specific festival held by the Vintage Computer Foundation (VCF). Jason isn't saying he will never go to any festival ever again.

Yes, in this case the capitalization is important.

It's unclear even with title case, as the words would be capitalised anyway.

It is so much more confusing than that.

VCF = Vintage Computer Federation, a national non-profit

VCF also = Vintage Computer Festival

VCFestival East and West are run by VCFederation. VCFestival MidWest is not.

Vintage Computer Festival as a name has a complicated history, but the short version is anyone can use the term and does use the term.

VCFederation also manages the warehouse and museum space in Wall, NJ. The blog author has an issue with VCFederation, not all VCFestivals.
