LIVE MUSIC EXHIBITS BY
Modular Seattle
Location: East Side of Volunteer Park
all night
Modular Seattle will be creating a live ambient quad sound and immersive video art experience using modulars and synthesizers.
Monster Planet
Amphitheater Opening Ceremonies
Monster Planet is an ever-expanding collective of producers, musicians, sound designers, visual artists, and B-movie enthusiasts improvising soundtracks to some of the most bizarre and cheesy B-movies in existence.
All artists work together to create a live surreal mix of cutting-edge ambient/experimental/drone music and obscure, low-budget cinema. The organization and logistics of exploring Monster Planet are overseen by SYNPROV CORP.
Not sure what “modular” music is?
Check out the video’s on their Facebook pages! Modular synths, sometimes likened to the craft beers of electronic music, are bespoke, infinitely recombinant electronic devices whose mysterious workings, DIY ethos, and science fiction style sounds inspire near-obsessive devotion.
21+ LUSIO DANCE PARTY AT THE Volunteer Park Conservatory
This is a ticketed portion of Lusio to help raise fund for the supporting non-profit; The Friends of the Conservatory.
Enjoy beer & wine in the beer garden + dj’s spinning super fun house music inside the Conservatory.
Space will be limited as capacity allows.
Lusio is supported this year by our friends at PNTA 😀

“How to experience Lusio?”
Lusio is meant to be playfully experienced in 2-3 hours and is FREE family-friendly, open to all, and for one night only.
Be prepared to wander and explore the corners of the park to find the art living under trees and in the gardens.
Lusio is fully interactive, family friendly, community driven event so participation is key!
**Playfully**
Show up around 7:30 to grab a spot on the lawn in front of the amphitheater for optimal relaxation. Got a crazy glowing outfit to wear? BRING IT! Dress in your most glowing, LED, light up attire to get into the spirit and contribute to the whole atmosphere! Wrap your dog in L-wire and let your kids wear all the sticks they can handle. Bring your LED hulu hoops to show off those hoopin skills.
**Thoughtfully**
Please help us leave the park as pristine as we found it by picking all all trash, using the proper recycling bins and not smoking on park property. You know what to do Seattle 🙂
WHAT IS NOT ALLOWED
NO renegade art exhibits- if it’s light art attached to your body that’s cool! But any outside art exhibits that did not apply will be asked to be taken down immediately.
NO fires, fire spinning, vending, sound/speakers, or rude behaviors.
Pack it in, pack it out and/or use the trash receptacles provided.
