MUTH’S TRUTHS

Keep the America 2050 Celebration of Freedom Going in Vegas This Week!

FreedomFest kicks off tomorrow, July 8, at Caesars Forum Conference Center in Las Vegas, and it's the biggest one yet.

This year's theme, “Think Independent,” marks America's 250th anniversary with over 2,500 free minds gathering for four days of bold ideas, sharp debate, and unapologetic liberty talk.

Six pavilions. Dozens of speakers. Founder Mark Skousen and the Anthem Film Festival crew bring their signature mix of economics, culture, entrepreneurship, and free speech to the stage, plus the Exhibit Hall Marketplace, Anthem Movies, and nightly Vegas parties.

Can't commit to all four days? No problem. Single-day passes are available, so you can pick the day that fits your schedule and still get the full FreedomFest experience: general sessions, breakout tracks, the Exhibit Hall, and film screenings.

Whether you're in it for the economics, the culture, the entrepreneurship, or just want to be around people who still believe in liberty, this is your week.

P.S. I will be speaking on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. Check the Agenda online for exact times and topics.
