By Asma Mohammed

Everyone is excited for the upcoming school year, and Irvine Spectrum Center sent summer out with a bang! The Irvine Spectrum hosted a back to school shopping party, a three day event called Endless Summer Festival which featured an acoustic set from pop-singer Alessia Cara on the evening of August 19.

The popstar released her first studio album, "Know-It-All" on November 2013 and has had her hit singles featured on multiple radio stations. More than 4,000 fans showed up to attend her free concert which was hosted by Irvine Spectrum as well as 102.7 KIIS-FM.

Alessia warmed up the crowd with a few stories about the idea behind each song and performed the major hits off her album, including "Wild Things" and "I'm Yours," including her latest single "Scars to Your Beautiful" and her first major hit, "Here." She is continuing her tour in North America until November 2016.

Irvine Spectrum continues to be the site of many fantastic new happenings and events listed on their website.
