Music festivals and concerts across the country have been impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. Amid the cancellations and rescheduled dates some major players are looking for creative ways to stay connected to fans.

According to Billboard.com, Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman and Talinda Bennington announced 320 Festival. This is a one-of-a-kind festival aimed at changing the conversation about mental health.

Originally the festival was set to take place across the entire L.A. LIVE complex in May. Of course that has been canceled in the physical form. Instead, the festival will be going online. On May 8- 10, fans can tune in for free on Facebook Live, YouTube Live, and the KNEKT.TV Network on Roku and Apple TV to join the conversation through educational sessions, musical performances, workshops and more.
