The Festival of Arts is a seasonal art festival in Laguna Beach, California, United States. The festival, which occurs annually in the summer, is home to a collection of booths operated by local painters, sculptors, photographers, and other artists. The festival grounds are also home to the Irvine Bowl, where the Pageant of the Masters is performed. On most evenings, the festival will offer live music, typically before a showing of the Pageant of the Masters. The festival currently holds a 40-year lease with the city of Laguna Beach and is scheduled to remain in the city through at least 2041.[1]
