The Americana Music Association have announced the first 115 of close to 300 acts slated to perform at their annual AMERICANAFEST, which runs from September 10-15 in Nashville.
For the 20th consecutive year, the six-day festival and conference event will once again fill Music City with award-winning legends, trailblazing mainstays and buzz-worthy newcomers, showcasing the breadth of Americana's influence on a global scale. With almost 300 artists and bands participating, the discovery music festival promises to be, as described by MOJO Magazine, the "roots alternative to the GRAMMYs® and South by Southwest."
2019 AMERICANAFEST® Festival Wristbands are now on sale to the public at the wallet-friendly price of $90. Available online here, Festival Wristbands allow admission into all evening showcase venues and select sanctioned special events.
2019 Conference Registrations (currently on-sale at the standard rate of $399/$299 for Americana Music Association® members) can be purchased here and provide access to the daytime educational conference plus all sanctioned special events while also offering priority admission into all showcase venues.
