It's impossible to escape the knowledge that yes, the second weekend of a certain festival is coming up, for those of you who aren't about to head south, either for the music or for the parties, DTLA has its own music celebration for considerably less $$$.

Spread across 4 stages, the Brokechella lineup covers a wide variety of genres. (via Brokechella.com)

Enter the amazingly-named Brokechella, which is hosting dozens of acts all Saturday for the low price of $10 per ticket (or $25, if you're feeling VIP).

Created by the arts collective cARTel as a community festival that just happened to fall on Coachella weekends, Brokechella has become a save-the-date event in its own right, and one of the only festivals held in DTLA, though that's soon to change.

With plenty of art installations, food and drink and service and shopping vendors, Saturday's festival should be easy on the wallet but have you going as hard as any Indio-goer.
