Scheduled for May 15 and 16, this vibrant music event will feature over three dozen acts representing both national and local talents.\n<\/p>\n<h2>Overview of the All Roads Music Festival<\/h2>\n<p>Previously held in Belfast for ten years, the festival is expanding to Portland, showcasing a diverse array of indie bands. Some of the prominent names scheduled to perform include:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Beaches<\/li>\n<li>Monrovia<\/li>\n<li>Momma<\/li>\n<li>Bahamas<\/li>\n<li>Touching Ice<\/li>\n<li>Lily Fitts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additionally, Maine\u2019s own artists will grace the stage, including:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Genevieve Stokes<\/li>\n<li>Louisa Stancioff<\/li>\n<li>Angelikah Fahray<\/li>\n<li>Ada Bonnevie<\/li>\n<li>Becca Biggs<\/li>\n<li>Oshima Brothers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Venues and Schedule<\/h3>\n<p>The festival will take place across various iconic venues in Portland, including:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>State Theatre (1,900 seats)<\/li>\n<li>One Longfellow Square<\/li>\n<li>Oxbow Blending &amp; Bottling<\/li>\n<li>Space Gallery<\/li>\n<li>Geno\u2019s Rock Club<\/li>\n<li>Blue Portland Maine<\/li>\n<li>Portland House of Music<\/li>\n<li>Mechanics\u2019 Hall<\/li>\n<li>Flask Lounge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Festival co-founder Meg Shorette emphasizes that the Belfast festival will also continue in a new time slot, moving to October 16 and 17. This timing aims to invigorate the entertainment scene during a slower season.\n<\/p>\n<h3>The Creative Pulse of Portland<\/h3>\n<p>Shorette noted that the expansion was inspired by a renewed energy in Maine\u2019s music community. Many Portland venues expressed enthusiasm for a spring festival that could drive foot traffic during a historically quieter period.\n<\/p>\n<p>Bonnevie, a local artist, remarked on the necessity of such a festival in Portland. She highlighted that there hasn\u2019t been a major music festival focused on local talent since the Waking Windows festival over a decade ago. The Back Cove Music and Arts Festival, which debuted last August, prioritized national artists rather than local performers.\n<\/p>\n<h2>Festival Experience and Ticketing<\/h2>\n<p>Attendees can expect a robust lineup featuring established and emerging artists sharing the stage. This blend of talent promises to create a unique atmosphere in Portland.\n<\/p>\n<p>Tickets providing access to all performances across participating venues are currently available for approximately $150. The complete schedule, including performance times and details, is anticipated to be released by the end of January.\n<\/p>\n<p>The All Roads Music Festival aspires to fill a critical gap in Portland\u2019s music scene, offering both artists and fans an exciting venue for connection and celebration this spring.\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn3.filmogaz.com\/295\">Portland Welcomes New Spring Music Festival<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn3.filmogaz.com\/\">CDN3 &#8211; Filmogaz<\/a>.                        <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.filmogaz.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Portland is set to host a fresh addition to its cultural landscape with the introduction of the All Roads Music Festival this spring.
