Florida's Palm Beach County council has claimed that the line up for its 2008 arts festival is "nothing less than remarkable".
Visitors to the Florida Festival of the Arts Boca in 2008 will be treated to a "remarkable" line-up of artists and events, according to the Palm Beach County council.
Next year's festival, which will be held between February 29th and March 16th at the Count de Hoernle Amphitheatre in Boca Raton, Florida, has been designed to resonate with international literary and musical enthusiasts.
The organisers of the event - Centre for the Arts at Mizner Park - are hoping to position the Festival of the Arts alongside such prestigious events as the Tuscan Sun Festival, the Festival del Sole Napa and the Ravinia Music Festival.
On the line-up for the Florida event next year will be the Russian National Orchestra, Grammy-winning guitarist Chic Corea, Nobel Prize-nominated author Joyce Carol Oates and stateswoman Kathleen Kennedy Townsend.
Palm Beach city councillor Peter Baronoff said: "As a city, we are extremely excited to host and be involved in helping to create this world-class event which, I am sure, will easily come to compare with major festivals of its kind the world over.
"This year's extraordinary paring of exceptional music and literature is certain to further put us on the map."
