Local Musicians

Are you a talented artist with a Fayetteville address? Then this is the opportunity for you! ANY and ALL genres welcome! We will be approving on a rolling basis!

We’re looking for local musicians to share their incredible sound and energy at our Fall Festival on Sunday, April 26th, 2026, from 12 PM to 7 PM. Each music act will be responsible for a 45 minute set. 

This is your chance to shine in front of your community and be part of a weekend full of music, fun, and Fayetteville pride! While this is a volunteer performance, we’re working to connect participating artists with paid opportunities at other Downtown events throughout the year.

To qualify, at least one band member must have a Fayetteville, NC address. It doesn’t have to be the person filling out the form, but you’ll need to include the Fayetteville address for verification.

We can’t wait to showcase the amazing talent that makes our city sing!

• At least one member of your band or act must provide a valid Fayetteville, NC address for verification.

• By submitting an application, you agree to allow the event to use photos, videos, or recordings of your performance for promotional purposes.
