From its humble beginnings in 1993 as a single night, 5 band bill at The Kennel Club (now The Independent), Noise Pop Festival has remained a cultural arbiter and community advocate within the local SF music scene.
After 30 years of championing independent arts and culture, Noise Pop Festival have since blossomed into a one week, 160+ band, 80+ event, 25+ venue music and arts festival that remains a staple in the San Francisco bay area.
In 2023 for our 30th anniversary, we are continuing the tradition of celebrating independent live music by bringing you a special curated lineup of classic indie bands, up-and-coming acts, reunion shows, SF debuts and local Bay Area bands!
