Lebanon’s Baalbeck International Festival is set to take place this month on July 5 despite the ongoing coronavirus, organizers announced this week.
The renowned arts and culture event, however, will have no audience.
It will broadcast live concerts from the heart of the Bacchus Temple, an ancient site in Lebanon’s Baalbeck at 9 p.m on the festival’s Facebook and YouTube pages, MBC’s streaming service Shahid and a number of Lebanese TV channels like MTV, LBC and more.
The program for the concert has not been revealed yet, but the festival stated that the event will celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday by presenting the German composer’s most famous pieces.
