GET LOUD! FEST
Get Loud! Fest is the new name of our annual fundraising show formerly known as LV L*dyfest.
Why the name change?
This concert features and celebrates performers from the same groups of people that we serve: girls, women, and nonbinary & trans folks. The term “lady” just wasn’t expansive enough. 🙂 We chose Get Loud! because making noise and being loud, both literally and figuratively, is one of the pillars of rock camp. ✨✨✨
Some history:
Ladyfest is a community-based art & music festival that has been happening worldwide since 2000. LV L*dyfest, a tiny but mighty version here in the Lehigh Valley, was first organized by Hannae and friends at the Secret Art Space. <3 Since the venue’s closure, the torch has been passed to us and the event has become one of our biggest fundraisers!
