Grand Park Doesn't List Made in America Fest
If you go to the Calendar for LA's Grand Park it doesn't list Budweiser's Made In America Fest, it only directs you to an e-mail for the festival. This might be a clear sign from the Grand Park and parts of LA unhappy with the upcoming festival taking over the park for private use with Live Nation and Budweiser ranking in most of the money.
LA Weekly has featured some articles on members of the LA City Council unhappy with the event happening later this month and where the money will be going from the major amount of attendees swamping downtown.
For the most part the problems are very transparent, a huge influx of people downtown, blocking traffic and causing street closures. 50,000 tickets are to be sold. Add to the mix, alcohol.
