Fresh off of bringing Jay Z’s Made in America Festival to LA last year (which generated nearly $15 million in economic activity to the city), Mayor Garcetti has teamed with fellow Angelino Steve Aoki to present “LAoki,” a massive free show that will be held in downtown Los Angeles on May 16th.
The concert is set to draw a crowd of 5,000 to 10,000 although all attendees would need to sign up on The Mayor’s Volunteer Corps at http://www.lamayor.org/volunteer_corps
Here’s what Mayor Garcetti had to say on the matter,
“We go to these wonderful places like Coachella, or other festivals but we don’t have as many outdoor concerts as we should right here in the musical capital of the world… we have the best weather, huge streets, great parks and the revitalization of downtown, which is now one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in the world.”
LAoki will coincide with the DJs album release and is set to feature guest artists as well! (Linkin Park will be one of them, I bet you)
Aoki himself seemed pretty psyched about the matter
“I wanted to do something big, not just the shows I always do, but something that gives back to Los Angeles, the city that raised me and built my career.”
