PorchFest Somerville is on. We are moving back to our traditional approach with bands performing on local porches, while guests move through the city. This event is a decentralized effort among bands, neighborhoods, and community---this is not a festival per se. The intent is to showcase Somerville's musical talent.
See the 2021 PorchFest map/bands performing here:

Bands/individuals will perform on Oct 2nd during the time slot assigned to their zone (just like prior events). Our zones and time periods are: West of Willow Ave is "west" and will occur b/w 12 to 2 p.m.; the area between Willow Ave. and Central St is Central zone and will occur b/w 2 to 4 p.m; and the area east of Central St is the East zone and will occur from 4-6 p.m. Please respect these time zones and duration for the sake of your neighbors and the audience moving across the city to reach you.
If you have registered before, you'll remember there are specific directions in the registration process. Here is a PorchFest "toolkit" per se, which will hopefully answer questions and provide useful tips on how to go about participating:
