Modesto Porchfest

May 2nd & 3rd, 2020

The organizers of Modesto Porchfest bring you Couchfest: a shelter-in-place music festival.

We were saddened to have to cancel the 4th Annual Porchfest due to COVID-19. We remain committed to amplifying as much local music in our community as possible. We are delighted to join the many who have been live streaming and promoting our local musicians by planning a full weekend of live streaming music, straight from their living rooms to yours.

On May 2nd and May 3rd, you can click the livestream links below or follow along on our facebook page to be connected to a local musician playing live through their social media pages.

Thank you to our Couchfest sponsors for kicking in funds to tip the musicians!
