Spotlight, an Asian arts festival that includes performances from a wide array of artists, will wind up eight days of performances in Cambodia Friday, organizers said.

The Spotlight festival includes performances, exhibitions, film, music and visual arts, including work from disabled artists.

Kong Nay, a blind chapei player often compared to US musician Ray Charles, played the opening event, which seeks to showcase the talent and diversity of many Asian artists.

The festival included a parade, with floats, motorcycle taxis and carriages, wheelchairs, cyclos and others.
