The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport will join 22 airports for the JetStream Music Festival on Wednesday, May 6.
(Erlanger, Ky.) - For one night and one night only, airports across the country will be celebrating local music by hosting a free online music festival.
On Wednesday, May 6, the JetStream Music Festival will be held through a multi-hour livestream starting at 6:00 p.m. EST.
The Festival's lineup will feature a diverse range of acts, tailoring each performance to the city’s unique music culture. The full lineup will be released later in the week.
The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) is participating through its partnership with ArtsWave, the engine behind Greater Cincinnati’s arts." Local musicians will represent each of the 22 participating airport’s community.
“For so many airports across North America, live music entertainment in the terminal has become a fun way to delight and engage passengers,” said ACI-NA President and CEO Kevin M. Burke. “Despite the sudden and significant drop in passenger traffic at North America’s airports because of the coronavirus health pandemic, this effort by Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and many other North American airports provides a unique opportunity to connect with their passengers. We look forward to hearing these musicians again in airport terminals soon.”
“CVG is proud to support local arts,” said Candace McGraw, CEO of CVG. “Through our partnership with ArtsWave, we regularly bring local musicians to the airport to showcase our region’s talent. At a time when few are traveling, the airport will once again connect our region to the world through this unique, virtual music festival.”
Festival goers will be able to tip participating musicians throughout the performance and learn about the organizations assisting the communities in each city.
Viewers can also join in the celebration by using the hashtag #JetStreamFest on all social media.
