Fête de la Musique 2020
This is a shortened version of the event. Scroll down to see the entire 5-hour event video.
Because of COVID-19 restrictions, the only onsite audience at the LBCAC will be people involved with the performances; it is not open to the general public.
“The Laguna Beach Cultural Arts Center (LBCAC) is honored to play an important local role in maintaining this meaningful worldwide tradition,” said Rick Conkey, founder and director of LBCAC. “During these challenging times, the Fête de la Musique provides vital nourishment for our souls, through an inspiring display of Art, Music and Culture. At this period in history, I can’t think of a more worthy event to support.”
