We hung out in Vegas this weekend at the Life is Beautiful festival, and here's a handful of cool people we met...

This past weekend, festival goers braced the dry heat of the desert in Las Vegas for the third annual Life is Beautiful Festival. This festival has always set itself apart from the rest by bringing an impressive lineup of celebrity chefs, speakers and artists to accompany the music lineup, just in case you'd like to take a break from rocking out from your favorite band. The setting itself in the streets of downtown Vegas is already in the midst of mural covered buildings, and more unique art installations are brought in for display just for the festival.

A few of this years headliners included Stevie Wonder, Duran Duran, and hometown heroes Imagine Dragons. A new partnership with Insomniac Events procured an electronic music stage, so all the EDM heads were able to get their fix. Before heading out for the weekend, we surveyed some attendees on their experience at this year's event.
