One of New York City’s longest-running, free, outdoor performing arts festivals, Celebrate Brooklyn attracts more than 200,000 attendees to the Prospect Park Bandshell each summer to see a wide array of artists.

Festival relies on longstanding partnerships

WorldStage has a longstanding partnership with BRIC providing a lighting rig and video gear versatile enough to adapt to rock and folk artists, world music stars, dancers and even movie nights. Brendon Boyd of Brooklyn’s Boyd Design handled production management and design for the festival and served as its lighting designer.
