The 10th annual Life is Beautiful music festival took place last weekend in Las Vegas. Headlined by Kendrick Lamar, The Killers and Odesza, thousands flocked to Sin City to catch a glimpse of their favorite artists.
Founded by Rehan Choudhry in 2013, Life is Beautiful has also been known to feature art installations and comedy acts. The three-day festival has seen performances from Green Day, The Weeknd and Post Malone, while artists like Banksy and Shepard Fairey have contributed exhibitions to the event in years past.
Pop stars including Bebe Rexha, Rina Sawayama and Kim Petras were among the acts featured at Life is Beautiful in 2023. Ahead, WWD breaks down the standout looks from this year’s spectacle.
