Pandora and YouTube Will Live Stream Made In America


Don’t have a ticket to this weekend’s Made In America Festival, featuring headliners Jay-Z and Pearl Jam and 25 or so other bands, performers and DJs? Have no fear, because MIA will be live streamed. Just received the following communique from City Hall:

Today, Budweiser in partnership with YouTube and Pandora announced its plan to deliver live webcasts and music streams of the Budweiser Made in America Festival.  The live streams on You Tube and Pandora can be accessed via www.youtube.com/BudMadeInAmerica or www.pandora.com/BudMadeInAmerica, on Saturday, Sept. 1 and Sunday, Sept. 2, from 2 to 11 p.m. ET.  Fans also can watch the live event from Philadelphia on YouTube’s mobile website.  This marks the first time Pandora has live streamed a music festival. Mayor Nutter emphasized that the live streams will further highlight the City of Philadelphia to a global audience.  “The City of Philadelphia is investing in itself by welcoming the Budweiser Made in America Festival.  Philadelphia will be featured as a fun, vibrant city with a thriving arts and music scene to audiences watching around the world.”
