Want to Play the Hamtramck Music Fest?

At the end of every winter, there is an event that brings the city's best bands and fans together for four awesome days. The Hamtramck Music Fest will take place March 1st thru 4th of next year. Now in its fifth year, the music festival will bring together nearly 200 bands to play at 20 venues throughout Hamtramck. A weekend pass for the event is only $10, which means for just a couple of dollars a night, you will get to bounce from venue to venue and see a ton of great bands. This is by far one of my favorite events of the year, and although it's a few months away, there is a good reason that we're telling you about it today.

If you are interested in being a part of the HMF in 2018 the time is now to apply to play! Bands can apply by filling out the online application here. Not everyone that applies will get to play, but you definitely won't get to play unless you apply. The application process runs now through January 7th, so don't put this off! Fill out your application now so you're not a Sad Sally the weekend of HMF, pouting about how you don't get to play one of the coolest events of the year.

So for now, save the dates, March 1-4. And if you're in a band head over and apply to play. Make sure you also head over and like the Hamtramck Music Fest on Facebook here so you can stay in the loop on the upcoming fest.
