Since its foundation in 1993, Noise Pop Festival has impacted the local music community of San Francisco. It all began with just five bands performing at The Kennel Club (now known as The Independent). Yet, today it stands firmly as an influential cultural standard bearer and advocates to musicians and fans alike.
Noise Pop Festival has been dedicated to promoting independent art and culture for the past three decades. Today, it's an incredible one-week festival that showcases over 160 bands at 25 venues with 80+ events. It's no wonder why this beloved San Francisco Bay Area event is a staple in the local community!
As Noise Pop Festival celebrates its 31st anniversary in 2024, the tradition of providing independent live music continues with a spectacular lineup! You'll hear classic indie bands, up-and-coming acts, reunion shows, SF debuts, and local Bay Area favorites. Take this opportunity to witness great musical acts and be part of this remarkable tradition!
