Media alert regarding the 8th annual San Diego Indie Fest Red Carpet Film Event.
San Diego, CA, August 13, 2013 --(PR.com)-- San Diego IndieFest is back at the NTC Promenade at Liberty Station,
with tons of grass, trees, gorgeous views of the bay and tons of free parking.
After a hiatus due to the birth of their son, San DiegoIndieFest creators/ producers Alicia Champion and Danielle LoPresti have been busy creating a renewed look and format for IndieFest 8, still featuring the kind of roster you've come to expect-filled with formidable Indie revolutionaries to excite and inspire. SDIF is still family friendly, wildly eclectic and offers a wide array of visual art, activities, film and of course, tons of music.
To take advantage of San Diego's awesome summertime weather, IndieFest has moved to August 16th-18th, and has expanded its music program to two days.

This year's event will include headliners Cake, Talib Kweli, Best Coast, Gilbert Castellanos and Bitch just added among many other remarkable and diverse bands. Additional festivities include spoken word, interactive art, dance, comedy, indie designers, delicious food and both beer and spirits offered in the beautiful 21+ area.
Sunday, August 18, the Indie Film Stage continues for the third day and will include short films, features and Q&A with filmmakers and industry pros, concluding with an awards ceremony.
