Lonely Planet's Passport to the World

Lonely Planet has launched a movement to inspire more Americans to get their passport and travel abroad. Fewer than 23% of all Americans currently have a passport. Designating September as National Passport Month, the company will kick off the campaign with a series of concert headlined by Michael Franti and Karsh Kale and feature locally-based, international musicians from each city. Attendees will be able to have their passport photos taken and receive passport applications, meet and talk to Lonely Planet authors & experts, tape video testimonials about their greatest travel story (or greatest travel dream), and experience the sights and sounds of world travel in the Lonely Planet Lounge. The tour kicks off tonight at Mezzanine in San Francisco.
