Want to play Porchfest?
Thanks for your interest in playing Norcross Porchfest 2027.
Last year, Norcross Porchfest drew 1,500 attendees to hear more than 35 bands and performers across 12 porch stages, and we're excited for you to be part of 2027.
Norcross Porchfest 2027 will be on Saturday, May 1
Performer Applications close January 15, 2027 at 11:59PM EST
Lineup will be announced in February 2027
Performer applications
Bands and solo artists of all styles are welcome to apply.
Performers are selected by a volunteer jury of neighborhood residents, and each porch is scheduled around genre, backline, and staggered set times so neighboring stages don't bleed into each other. Sets typically run 30 to 45 minutes, and confirmed performers will receive their porch assignment and set time directly from us.
Day-of logistics
If you're selected, plan to arrive between 11 AM and 12 PM. Roads inside the festival area close to vehicles at noon, so unload everything before then. Roads reopen at 6:30 PM, and police will not allow vehicles through the closed streets before that time. If you need to leave earlier, you can carry your gear to a vehicle parked outside the closure zone.
Each porch host will provide an extension cord and a power strip. If you need to rent additional equipment, we've partnered with Radiant Live Events and are happy to make an introduction. Selected artists will receive more logistics information via email leading into the festival.
