Kingfield PorchFest 2018
Take a walk from the blues to some bluegrass, from indie-folk to Irish-folk to ukulele lady jams, all on a single summer evening in Kingfield. That’s PorchFest! Local musicians (many who live in the homes where they are performing) will play acoustic music outdoors while neighbors stroll through the neighborhood enjoying the sounds and our community. This year we welcome 50+ performing groups to over 30 stages throughout the neighborhood, mapped to keep you moving from site to site, as well as moving and grooving AT each site.
Give a listen and get a look at all the musical groups performing at Kingfield PorchFest 2018: either on our website or on Facebook at Kingfield PorchFest 2018! We are also linked on Make Music Day Twin Cities in partnership with VEGA Productions! Â
