The Life is Beautiful festival closed down its main entrance to move it one street over Sunday evening after an incident at 6th Street and Carson Avenue.

Steve Flynn, a spokesman for the festival, said it was a minor structural incident. A post set up near the main entrance fell over, and though no one was injured, festival officials decided to move the entrance to 7th Street.
