Live At Present — Arts & Music Fall Festival 2026
Our Supporting Partners
About the Organizer
More Than a Festival. A Movement.
Who is Live At Present?
Live At Present is a global community platform built on one belief — that gathering people together, with intention, can change things. We've produced purposeful events across Nepal and North Carolina, and every dollar we generate flows back into causes that matter: supporting local artists, environmental restoration, the Blue Ocean Project, and emergency relief.
The LAP Arts & Music Festival is our biggest event yet — and a statement. That Knightdale deserves a world-class cultural experience. That local artists deserve a real stage. And that a festival can be something you feel genuinely good about attending.
Giving Back
10% of Proceeds Support Widowed Military Spouses & Their Families
At Live At Present, we believe a great festival is about more than great music — it's about community, purpose, and honoring those who made it possible. That's why we are proud to donate 10% of all LAP Arts & Music Festival proceeds to widowed military spouses and their families. The sacrifice of our service members is immeasurable, and this is our small way of saying thank you. When you buy a ticket, enjoy the music, and share this day with the people you love — you're also standing with the families of those who gave everything. We are grateful, and we are honored to serve alongside you.
A Stage for Local Artists
We exist to elevate emerging voices in the Triangle and beyond. Every performer on our lineup is chosen with intention.
Profit With Purpose
Proceeds support nonprofits focused on environmental restoration, ocean cleanup, community relief, and the arts.
Built for the Triangle
Knightdale and Wake County deserve a boutique cultural festival rooted in their own community. This is it.
