When and where is 82World: LA?
The music festival will take place on October 17 and October 18 at the LA State Historic Park. This park is no stranger to hosting music festivals, as this venue was the home to LA3C, which featured K-Pop group SEVENTEEN.
The location is near Chinatown and close to the Metro Gold Line. Parking can be sparse so rideshare or public transportation is recommended.
