Noise Pop Festival
Independent music — multi-room festival · San Francisco, California, USA
Small
The festival
The pioneer of multi-room festivals: Born in 1993 in San Francisco on a single evening of five bands, Noise Pop makes the whole city vibrate for eleven days, from one concert to another, in more than 25 venues — from the Great American Music Hall to Grace Cathedral, Gray Area, SFJAZZ and Castro Theatre.
A celebration of independent music in all its forms — indie rock, electronic, jazz, hip-hop: more than 160 artists and 80 events, with a badge that opens all doors or single tickets, concert by concert. That's where The White Stripes, Modest Mouse, The Flaming Lips, Death Cab for Cutie or Grimes played at their debut.
Good to know
The 2027 line-up is revealed in waves: the first 24 names were announced on October 20, 2026 (Lambchop, Caroline Rose, Deerhoof, Modeselektor, Gibby Haynes' Butthole Surfers Mania…). Full badges already on sale; single-show tickets from Friday, October 23, 2026 at 12 p.m. local time, via the official Tixr box office. Local artist submissions are open to Bay Area artists for the 2027 edition. Produced by Noise Pop Industries, the Bay Area's longest-running independent promoter (since 1993).
