Who

Napa Porchfest features LOCAL, Napa County Musicians. This is a free event and musicians are not paid. If you would like to be considered for Napa Porchfest, please contact us via the form below (form is disabled when we are not taking applications).

Where

If at all possible, FIND YOUR PORCH. Every band must have a porch to play on. If you do not have a porch, we will do our best to connect you to one, but your chances of being able to play Porchfest go WAY UP if you already have connected with a porch.

If at all possible, FIND YOUR OWN PORCH HOST

Within Napa

PLEASE NOTE: THE NAPA PORCHFEST BOUNDARIES (map below). In an effort to maintain the safety of event attendees, bands and porches will be located only within the street closure area area around Fuller Park. (Note the addition of 4th street between 3rd and Coombs as well as side streets)
