LA County Fair

KaraokeFest™ 2017 was a Spectacular one-day event at the LA County Fair that featured Karaoke and on the main stage a production where finalists from “Creme” singing competitions competed. The event culminated with the “Creme de la Creme,” where the very best of the best singers that Southern California had to offer competed for thousands in cash and prizes and the honor of being crowned Male and Female Vocalist of the Year.
