For the first time ever, some of the biggest names in music will descend upon the city of Bridgeport, CT for the inaugural Soundside Music Festival. Among the sites, festival goers will get to take in the sounds of the two day, single stage festival.
NPR’s Tiny Desk Top Shelf featured artist Rijah will kick off the festival on Saturday, September 28. Her noon performance will be followed by Goo Goo Dolls, Fleet Foxes, Boys II Men and more. Noah Kahan will close out day one with a “mean” performance of “Stick Season.”
Day two will pick up again at noon with a performance from Darren Kiely. The Irish artist will be in good company with performances from Bleachers, Norah Jones, and Teddy Swims among others. Foo Fighters will celebrate “Times Like These” as they conclude the Festival.
Evening performances on both day one and two will have a live American Sign Language interpreter. See the full schedule below for times and performances with an interpreter.
Between the 20 world-class performances, audiences can also grab a bite from Connecticut favorites like Gotham Burger Social Club, PopUp Bagels, 29 Markle Ct, Walter’s Hot Dogs, Zuppardi’s Apizza, Van Leeuwen Ice Cream and more.
