The first-ever Light City Baltimore festival kicks off today. The festival of “light, music and innovation” is being held around the 1.5 mile BGE Light Art Walk in the Inner Harbor with one of the festival’s conferences also taking place at Port Covington’s City Garage. Light City will run until April 3rd.
About the festival from LightCity.org:
Premiering in 2016, Light City Baltimore is the first large-scale, international light festival in the United States, homegrown right here in Baltimore. Light City will provide a backdrop for the celebration of ideas, ingenuity and creativity through art, music and innovation.
Light City will shine a light on Baltimore’s abundance of creative, cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary talent, and we welcome participants from across the globe to join us.
Light City’s innovation programming will generate an ecosystem of ideas and learning during the day – while lights, performances and live music reimagine the Inner Harbor at night. Festival is open from 7pm-11pm March 28- March 31, 7pm-12am April 1-April 2, and 7pm-11pm on April 3. DOWNLOAD THE APP
