On behalf of the PorchFest Committee we are very excited to announce that we are in full planning mode and currently scheduled to host this year’s PorchFest on Sunday, September 17, 2023!
Here’s what you'll want to know:
-
The event will be held between 12:00 pm and 4:30 pm – final sets and times TBD.
-
We are looking to expand to 3-sets this year, with each set being approximately 1-hour in length. Our intermissions will be scheduled to allow for better set-ups/breakdowns for bands.
-
This is primarily an acoustic event. We encourage all bands to perform acoustically when possible. This allows us to maximize the number of groups that can perform within Mapleton Hill, keeping this a walkable and enjoyable event for all. We understand that some performers will require electricity and some amplification (especially with solo-artists, keyboards, etc.) and are happy to accommodate as needed. We ask that you please be considerate of other performers during the event, complying with requests to reduce sound if asked.
-
We are unable to pay bands. This year we will provide tip jars at all porches. You are welcome to offer merchandise for sale at the event.
-
Be sure to bring everything you’ll need to perform, including power cords.
Thank you in advance for your interest and participation - we can't do this without your support!
