The groundbreaking projection-mapping performance art festival is in its seventh year.  Artists from all over the world use computer programs, live-capture photography, and animation to project moving figures on Binghamton landmark structures to tell wild and fanciful tales.

LUMA is free, but crowd sizes are being controlled through the issuing of the free tickets online.

In the event of a weather emergency, September 12 has been set as rain date.
