Kohoutek Music & Arts Festival

Kohoutek Music & Arts Festival Kohoutek is an annual two day music and arts festival at Pitzer College, in Claremont, California that is free and open to the public. Team, Mr.

Kohoutek started in 1974, when a group of creative Pitzer students decided to bring together the local community through a two-day celebration of music and art. Kohoutek was originally named after Russian astronomer Lubos Kohoutek, who, in 1973, predicted that a comet of his namesake would end the world as we know it. Pitzer students decided that, if the world was going to end, they might as well go out with a bang! And thus, Kohoutek was born. Since its formation in 1974, Kohoutek has become a staple of spring life in Claremont and has grown to be the BIGGEST annual on campus event at the Claremont colleges. Kohoutek has a history of getting some of the biggest names In the music industry (before their prime) to headline the event including: GZA of Wu-Tang Clan, The Soft Pack, Javelin, Matt and Kim, Blackalicious, Akron/Family, The Roots, Tea Leaf Green, O.A.R., Zion I, The Go! Lif, Lyrics Born, HEALTH, The Growlers, Phantogram, Octopus Project, Hot Sugar, King Kahn & BBQ Show and more!
