Brian Cohen, the coordinator of LouFest, has been very excited about the outcome of this first annual festival.
“The feedback has been overwhelming. People seem genuinely surprised that a first year festival could deliver such a complete event. There are things we could have done better, and we’ll continue to ask for feedback, but year one feels like it was a big success,” Cohen said.
“I think LouFest year one could not have gone better. It was a massive undertaking, with countless moving parts, but we pulled it off. Our goal was to exceed expectations and I think we did that. We’ll definitely be back next year,” Cohen concluded.
And for all of you who missed LouFest, here is some footage that is sure to make you buy a ticket for next year’s festival.
