Life is Beautiful Festival officially ended on Sunday evening as attendees celebrated love, life and beauty on the third and final day of the festival. Following three days of nonstop entertainment, the last day of the sold-out festival concluded with unforgettable performances and one-of-a-kind experiences.
Early in the evening, Jamila Woods, Alaina Castillo and Death From Above 197 were all greeted by an enthusiastic crowd at the Huntridge Stage, and festival goers danced the night away at the Fremont Stage, which featured performances from Keys N Krates, Ekali and Gorgon City.
On the Downtown Stage, the crowd roared as Billie Eilish returned to Life is Beautiful for another high-energy set. Before Eilish took the stage, fans were treated to electric performances from SHAED, St. Vincent and Young Thug. Crowds gathered at the BACARDÍ® Stage to witness legendary performances from 6lack, Fisher and A$AP Rocky. In a sweet moment, the rapper was seen blowing kisses onstage to girlfriend Rihanna. The superstar turned business mogul was seen showing her support during his set, singing and dancing to every song.
The Kicker Comedy Club featured two live podcast tapings as Jackie Schimmel’s The Bitch Bible and Stiff Socks with Trevor Wallace and Michael Blaustein went live from Venue Vegas. As the sun went down, the music was cranked as the Emo Night Tour took over Venue Vegas, and “the saddest dance party around” commenced to close out the evening.
Each year, the festival leaves the city more beautiful than they found it, with the stunning and colorful street art remaining even as attendees bid farewell to the beloved celebration. Fans can look forward to its return in 2022.
