Back Porch Festival

The Back Porch Festival returns March 3-5 2023 in a new expanded format featuring dozens of bands playing in 8 venues in downtown Northampton over 3 days. For the first time, we're offering a festival weekend pass with one admission price to all festival shows throughout the weekend.

The Premium Weekend Pass includes admission to all three of the headline evening shows at the Academy Of Music (John Prine Tribute, Molly Tuttle, and Watchhouse) as well as all other performances throughout the weekend.

The Ramble Pass includes admission to all Back Porch Events except the evening Academy Of Music shows (John Prine Tribute, Molly Tuttle, and Watchhouse). All Back Porch events are subject to venue capacity and first come, first served.

Every year the festival includes a live broadcast of Jim Olsen's Back Porch radio show. This year marks the Back Porch radio show's 30th Anniversary! It will broadcast from Progression Brewing before a live audience on Sunday March 5 from 9am-12noon. The broadcast is free to attend for all button holders and coffee and tea will be served!

More events and artists will be announced in the coming weeks!
