2009 North Coast Music Festival

North Coast Music Festival will take place in Mall B and C in Cleveland, Ohio, Aug 7-9, 2009. Mall B and C are located next to City Hall, and across from Browns Stadium, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum. The 3-day multi-stage event will feature 50+ country, rock, and urban bands. With the support of local and national sponsors, the festival is expected to attract over 45,000 fans.



During the festival, music industry executives and national media will be onsite for interviews and NCMF will make attempt to get the NCMF Performers the maximum exposure. Also, several artists who are not selected to perform at the festival will still qualify for promotion at the festival via video screens in the VIP tents and distributing press kits. Also, we will make VIP passes available to these bands to network with the Music Industry Executives, Venue owners, booking agents, and national media.



The North Coast Music Festival is designed to showcase up and coming bands. Artists that submit should have past performance experience and a sizable fanbase with an online presence via social networking sites like Myspace. Flat fees may be paid but all bands may earn fees for tickets they sell to their fans with a promo code issued by the festival.



In addition to performances at the festival, North Coast Music Festival will give interested bands the opportunity to perform at NCMF promotion events leading up to the festival and events after the festival.



The North Coast Music Festival will also recognize the Military Heroes at a special two-hour Welcome Home Party on August 9th in which the festival will distribute 2,000 tickets free-of-charge to veterans. Nashville Recording Artist Daniel Smith will perform his hit, "Thank You" (Tribute to the American Soldier) and there will be a motorcycle rally with multiple starting locations to show the support to the Veterans at the event.
