Since it's beginning, MTA has been working towards an international vision of becoming a recognized brand beyond China's music marketplace. Director of Programming Warren Chien brings his experience, along with Festival Founder Hongjie Li (aka CheiZak) to that effort, from their choice in line-ups and content programming, to launching their Sky Desert series. The first-ever MTA LA will take place in Pasadena, CA in the fall of 2019. --- The newly launched Chinese music festival, MTA Festival, is stepping into the league of SXSW and Coachella, making a unique Chinese cultural symbol and emerging global music festival brand under the desert stars 90km from Beijing at Sky Desert. The Festival is a collection of trending music, the experience of emerging technology, multimedia art performances, installation art exhibitions and much more. With their amazing spirit, artists will transform the desert into a new galaxy, creating a dreamy experience of antigravity, surrounded by nine "planets" - The Beijinger Contact: Margo Drgos // Office: (424) 327-4058 // margo@zerbertmusiclifestyle.com ###
