The Life Is Beautiful 2014 festival recently welcomed 90,000 attendees to Downtown Las Vegas for it's second annual music, food, and art fest on Oct. 24 - 26. The event is part of an annual movement to inspire people to live life to the fullest, to overcome issues and to fight against bullying as well as to learn, love and grow as individuals.

The second annual Life Is Beautiful festival is kicking off this weekend on Friday, Oct. 24. This year’s event is all about inspiring people to recognize the beauty in life – wherever they are in their personal lives – it is about embracing life, finding happiness and seeing the world from a different lens. To achieve this, the creator of Life is Beautiful enlisted local Las Vegas chefs to inspire patron’s palettes, a bounty of musicians to inspire the soul and they’ve grouped together world-renowned artists to invoke the heart and mind with unifying artistic themes.

I’m from a small town in Colorado known as Loveland. I grew up idealizing rock stars and get star struck when I see a celebrity, specifically a rock and roll idol. An embarrassing admonishment, and a slight tangent, as I walked passed Dave Navarro in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in my first year in Vegas, I shouted out, ‘There’s Trent Reznor!’

It’s time to get your Guinness beer drinking on at Rí Rá Irish Pub as they attempt to break a Guinness World Record for hosting 16 days of live music 24 hours each and every day.

At exactly 1 p.m. on October 1, several bands of a variety of musical styles will be playing their hearts out back-to-back, as they only take 25-second breaks between songs and five minutes between sets.

For those of you that come to Las Vegas and avoid the hotels by utilizing the KOA Campground just north of Circus Circus Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, it’s time to move that camper along to make way for the Rock In Rio.

Rock in Rio is going to be a staple in Las Vegas on the Strip hosting a blowout concert every two years. The space is being dubbed the City of Rock and can host 80,000 people a day.

With the Bunkhouse Saloon officially opened, folks visiting and living in Las Vegas are not only thrilled with the cleaned up divey-ish bar, but also with the ongoing lineup of Indy bands, the beverages and, well, the food.

There are a number of things people are raving about with the newly-opened venue and we can see why. A cool lineup of ongoing bands including RJD2 and Blonde Redhead at prices that are shockingly affordable. We’re talking like $5 to $20 depending on the band. Yep, that’s pretty inexpensive in Vegas, especially to see a live band.

As the 2014 Life Is Beautiful (LiB) festival slated for Oct. 24 – 26 gears up, the art portion of the already hefty lineup of entertainment is getting amped up with expanded programming over last year’s artistic concepts.

This year, there will be two reigning initiatives during the event – both with strong themes of interactivity. The first initiative participants will get a chance to enjoy includes a ‘live urban gallery’ with murals and installments throughout the streets of the festival.

Beer lovers headed to Vegas, you are in luck this September with a multitude of beer tasting events on the calendar including the Downtown Brew Festival and BLVD Brew Fest.
