Celebrate Westwood will provide artists with access to electrical power, via portable "Jackery" battery packs that will be required to be picked up from and returned to a location nearby downtown Westwood before and after each performance HOWEVER these cannot support high-powered mix boards. Most musicians opt to use a mic and small amp/speaker and many musicians have opted to bring their own portable power devices. Wall outlets are not accessible.
