This weekend, the 15th annual Busker Fest is filling the streets of downtown Lawrence with breakdancers, firebreathers, hula hoop contortionists and more.
Presented by Free State Brewery, the street performer festival runs from May 25-29 and is free for the public to attend. The schedule includes more than 25 acts spread across five stages, located between the 800 and 900 blocks of Massachusetts and New Hampshire streets.
In this episode of Lawrence Times TV, you’ll see highlights from the first day of the event. You’ll get a sneak peek of performances from Jamey Mossengren, the Unicycling Unicorn; Derek Derek, The Fuzzy Juggler; and Sara Twister, the Acrobatic Archer.
