The Second Year Of Light City In Baltimore Started Today

RadioOnFire.com - Light City Baltimore starts on Friday.

For those who didn't get to see Light City Baltimore last year, you have more opportunities this time around. The festival is longer this year -- one of many changes spectators can expect to find.

This year, the festival will run nightly from  7:00 P.M. to 11:00 P.M. through April 8th and it will remain open until midnight on Friday and Saturday. 

“We've upped our technical game and scaled up our installations here at the harbor,” Kathleen Hornig, festivals director for the Baltimore Office of Promotions and the Arts, said. “Most of them are completely new to the festival. We only have two repeats.”

Even though artists from the around world participate, organizers wanted to keep the Charm City in Light City.

For its second year, organizers wanted bigger, bolder and brighter exhibits. Organizers said that is the event’s unofficial motto.

Last year, Light City welcomed more than 400,000 people over seven nights.
