The 2015 Deutschtown Music Festival 

Saturday July 11, 2015

Get ready for another exciting year, our third, with over 100 musical acts of varying styles; playing on multiple outdoor stages and indoor venues during the day then spilling out across 15 music venues throughout the night - all within walking distance. ALL FOR FREE!

All contributions from this campaign will go directly to the performers. 

The Deutschtown Music Festival is unique in that it is a free, non-profit event run by volunteers with the goal of promoting the Northside as well as local musicians and artists. Months of planning go into this event to provide a full day of music and art, for free, all within the confines of the East Ohio Street business district. 

But now is the time to give back to those that make this happen – the musicians.

We need your support to pay back all of the great musicians and bands that make this happen. We need to hit our $10,000 goal – not only because it provides some monetary value back to the performers but also because it sends the message that we value the time and effort of each and every performer that will grace a stage during this year’s festival.

How will our funding be distributed? Evenly. We are going to attempt to pay each band or performer on a per capita basis, meaning that each and every person will get the same amount. This festival was borne out of the idea of community and the greater good and we hope to spread compensation around fairly.

What can you expect this summer?

Family-friendly daytime activities include live music on three outdoor stages, three indoor venues, multiple food vendors stationed around the festival, artist exhibitions, mobile art carts, a pop-up pinball arcade at Artists Image Resource and other activities.

Nighttime activities include music and events spread throughout the neighborhood with over 80 different local acts performing in 9 unique venues, all within walking distance.

The Deutschtown Music Festival has, in only two years, gained a reputation as one of the premiere summer music festivals in Pittsburgh.

Hey, we know this is a lot of money so in order to show our appreciation we will customize a special package especially for YOU. This includes all the other stuff from the other packages, of course, but we also know a lot of bands and people in bands (in case you haven't figured that out yet) so let's see what we can do that will make this special. If you're thinking of doing this, email us and we'll see what we can put together. We're full of cool ideas. Maybe a house show, perhaps.
