About
Traditional Band Music from historical eras and ethnic traditions, performed outdoors on Northfield's Bridge Square.
The festivals have included more than 30 European and American bands performing more than 100 concerts in four days each festival. Each day began with noon concerts in several city parks, with continuous music into the night.
Admission to almost all Vintage Band Festival events is free, but attendees are encouraged to make donations to pay festival expenses.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
Eternal thanks to our foremost sponsor, the Wenger Foundation, which has supported Vintage Band Festival since its inception in 2006. More information and schedules can be found at https://vintagebandfestival.org/.
