What’s Happening:

SoundsGood is a one-day, end-of-summer festival that ties together music, art, and nature. We really don’t want this to be just any music festival. SoundsGood showcases local musical talents, visual art via new media (immersive & experiential art), and homegrown initiatives that do good for the environment (with upcycled material and zero waste). It happens in Rayfoun, smack-dab in the middle of its natural heritage.

Why It’s Happening:

We have a dream. It’s a simple dream, really. We seek to unite and empower the Lebanese art scene. We want to pave their way to regional scenes while giving them a platform of support so that they can share their life’s work with the world. We believe in strength through unity, and we believe that art plays a huge role in this unity. It’s about solidarity, partnerships, collective work, and all that good stuff.

Oh, and the environment. We all know that the environmental situation in Lebanon is only getting worse, right? But we believe that all initiatives (organized by people who care) should do maximum good and minimal environmental impact. Will we save Lebanon? Not really. But at least we try.

Where It’s Happening:

It’s happening in Rayfoun, only 20 minutes from our coast, on a pretty big piece of land (15,000m2 of greenery, to be exact). Place Fouad Chehab is a popular landmark in Rayfoun and Keserwan. It’s the starting point of Kleiaat Street, a hotspot for tourists and locals with more than 30 restaurants, 4 hotels, and 10,000 visitors during the summer. So yeah, you could say it’s a happening area.
