Club Passim Labor Day campfire.festival

Club Passim, 47 Palmer Ave., Cambridge, MA

Imagine getting to see dozens of your favorite acts all in one weekend. Not in a festival field hundreds of yards away, but in an intimate, seated space. Catch a glimpse of what it is like backstage at a big festival – artists hanging out and trading songs – on stage one minute and hanging out in the audience watching the next set right after.

This is the scene at the Campfire Festival at Club Passim. Twenty five years in, it is the best way to catch your current favorites as well as your future favorites. It is a festival of experiments and discoveries. This is where new artists get on stage and shine. Swapping between songwriter rounds and band sets, you’ll get a glimpse of a music scene that is much bigger than one room. There are artists from around the corner and around the world. Some might be familiar, but many you’ll discover for the first time. Settle in for a few sets…or a few days. Genre is not part of the mix. Be open to the voices…the instruments…the sounds. Be ready to be amazed.

Campfire has long been the best way to see new artists at Club Passim. So many of today’s favorites got their start at the Campfire Festival. Many folks you may have already been fans of stopped in to perform a special guest set!

Full 4 day Festival Pass $25 / Day Pass $10
