Life is Beautiful vehemently condemns racism, racial injustice, and discrimination and we believe there is no greater time than now to understand the true meaning of the words ‘Life is Beautiful.’ We are committed to supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, providing resources to our community, and using our platform to initiate change.
Dear Life is Beautiful Community,
Nothing would make us happier than to gather with you this September, but given these unprecedented times we can no longer move forward with the Life is Beautiful festival in 2020. We will be making a full return in 2021.
We were more excited than ever to share the vision of this year’s festival with you. Instead, this moment has given us the opportunity to pause and assess what is truly important. It has given us the space to reflect and to grow, to refocus on our work, and to find new ways to give back to our community beyond the three days of the festival. Our hearts are heavy, but our resilience is unstoppable.
Transformation is at the core of our mission. The needs of our city have evolved and the ways that we can create positivity and joy have evolved along with it. Our job now is to harness and guide that transformation into new growth for the community around us. We can’t wait to share it with you.
Until then, we hope you’ll join us in showing the world that life is truly beautiful. Spread love, stay kind, and celebrate life.
See you soon,
Life is Beautiful

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL
A BEAUTIFUL THING...
As the sun set on October 27, 2013, Ezra Koenig, the lead singer and guitarist for New York-based alternative band Vampire Weekend, looked out to an audience of about 30,000 fans at Sixth Street and Stewart Avenue in Downtown Las Vegas and made an observation. The stage he was standing on was built just a few days prior. The surrounding asphalt had sat derelict for years. Downtown Las Vegas, said Koenig, located just two miles north of the famously fabulous Las Vegas Strip, was an area that he didn’t know existed.
