We get to do this again! This is the 7th annual Laveen Folk Festival, but it's much more than folk music - we welcome any acoustic performers. No entry fee, food will be available for purchase. Here are the details:
1. Date: Saturday 11/23/24
2. Times: Start at 9am, end by 5pm
3. Stages: We’ll have 6 stages this year!
4. Address is the same as last year, 2800 W. Dobbins Road, Laveen AZ
5. Each performer will get one 30-minute time slot
6. There is no entry fee to perform, and no entry fee to get into the festival, but musicians may have merch to sell
7. We will have food for sale, but feel free to bring your own picnic
8. We’ll have some seating but you’re always welcome to bring your own chair(s)
9. Leashed pets are welcome, but remember that this is a working farm with cows, horses, chickens, goats, and who knows what other animals. Be aware of potential adverse interactions and be ready to restrain your pet if needed
Again this year we’ll have a Band Scramble event, it was such a success last year! Here’s how it works:
• We put all interested musician’s names in buckets by instruments (a bucket for guitars, separate bucket for basses, another for mandolins, etc.)
• Then we pick one name from each bucket to create a band, and announce the groups before noon.
• The performers have the day to pick 2 songs that they can learn as a group and run thru them a few times.
• At the end of the day, each new band will perform. A group of judges will select the top 3 groups, and we’ll have a few prizes for those bands.
To submit your performer(s), or if have any questions, please send an email to [email protected]
