Life is Beautiful Festival Announces Inaugural Dates

The Life is Beautiful (L.I.B.) festival has announced Saturday, October 26th and Sunday, October 27th, 2013 as the dates of its first event. L.I.B hopes to attract thousands of people to enjoy live music performances, culinary demonstrations, art exhibitions and speaker forums in existing and temporary venues erected across more than 10 city blocks in and around the Fremont East District of Downtown Las Vegas.

We are assembling an unprecedented lineup of musicians, chefs, artists and speakers to entertain, engage and encourage festival goers all within a historic urban environment, says Rehan Choudhry, CEO of Aurelian Marketing Group. We want the convergence of entertainment and ideas that weekend to inspire people to find the beauty in life.

Music is Beautiful
Over the course of the two days, the festival will feature an eclectic lineup of internationally established and emerging bands on four outdoor stages and several indoor venues. The full music lineup will be announced in the coming weeks.

Food is Beautiful
The heart of the festival will be a full scale food festival featuring demonstrations, culinary affairs, intimate meals and a large-scale Moroccan-style village featuring more than 60 chefs, restaurants, mixologists and winemakers. The design of the food and wine program will allow attendees the opportunity to engage these talented chefs up close and gain insight into their creative process in the kitchen and beyond.

Art is Beautiful
With a focus on supporting the thriving and growing Las Vegas art scene, the art element of L.I.B. will offer local artists a global platform to showcase their works alongside internationally acclaimed talent from around the globe. The program will feature a collection of artists including performance, street, graffiti, and gallery-inspired art.

Learning is Beautiful
At Learning is Beautiful, speakers from a variety of backgrounds including: music, culinary, art, technology, social entrepreneurship, and more will share their life stories with festival goers including their triumphs, obstacles and lessons learned on the road to success.

L.I.B. is being developed by Aurelian Marketing Group in partnership with Another Planet Entertainment, MAKTUB Marketing and Downtown Project.
