Thank You for your interest in the All Roads Music Festival. Each year we get hundreds of inquiries to perform at the festival, and we do our best to respond and look at each performer who writes to us.
Each year the festival programmers select approximately 30 artists to participate in the Fest, with the goal of creating a diverse lineup of different styles, from communities across Maine. The programmers primarily look for artists who are actively performing, who have released new music, or are otherwise visible each year. The best advice we can give artists who are potentially interested in performing is to be active, as our team is doing our best to keep an eye on noteworthy independent artists defining the regional music scene! If you are not offered an opportunity to perform in a specific year, keep performing and creating. It is absolutely the best way to get on our radar!
In 2025 we have also added our new All Roads Presents series which will provide opportunities for both festival almuni and other emerging artists an opportunity to perform in venues across the region outside of the annual festival in Belfast.
We thank you again for your inquiry and we will pass on your message to our programming team.
