Whether you're a seasoned musician or just a music lover, there's something for everyone to enjoy during the festival. Enjoy live performances by regional bands, and local singers, and instrumentalists, plugged in and unplugged. Learn an instrument at a workshop or sing along at an open mic session. Visit The Music Project and learn why Aberdeen is the cradle of grunge music. Take a guided tour and walk in the footsteps of Kurt Cobain. And be sure to join in with other festival goers in a sing-along of Nirvana's "Come as You Are," at 7:30pm at the Music Project Main Stage, backed by a marching band.

Musicians are invited to come as you are and play on sidewalks throughout downtown Aberdeen. All ages, all skill levels are welcome to participate. No pre-registration necessary. Many musicians play unplugged or through a small battery powered amplifier. Bands should plan to bring their own PA systems, unless pre-arranged. Some businesses have stages; others may only provide power to the sidewalk.
