Somerville PorchFest is an annual community-driven music festival that transforms the charming city of Somerville, Massachusetts, into a sprawling live music venue for one joyous day. This event sees local musicians and bands of various genres perform on the porches, front yards, and gardens of willing residents throughout Somerville, offering a unique way to experience live music in an intimate, neighborhood setting.

The festival typically takes place in the late spring, allowing attendees to enjoy the pleasant weather as they stroll from porch to porch, discovering new music and reconnecting with the community. From folk, jazz, and blues to rock, pop, and electronic, PorchFest celebrates Somerville's diverse musical talent and fosters a sense of community and local pride.

PorchFest is a free event, open to people of all ages, and encourages the exploration of the city's neighborhoods. It's not just about the music; it's a day for community bonding, supporting local artists, and enjoying the vibrant culture of Somerville. Attendees are advised to bring their own seating, like lawn chairs or blankets, and to respect the private properties hosting the performances.

This event is organized by the Somerville Arts Council and a team of volunteers, who map out the participating porches and schedule performances to ensure a smooth experience for both artists and attendees. The event schedule and map are usually available on the Somerville Arts Council's website prior to the festival, allowing attendees to plan their PorchFest journey.

Somerville PorchFest represents the spirit of community and the arts, making it a must-attend event for music lovers, families, and anyone looking to enjoy a day filled with good vibes, great tunes, and the warm hospitality of Somerville's residents.
