Entertainers

Applications for 2025 performances

Applications for Musicians and Entertainers are due by July 15th. Accepted entertainers will be notified for scheduling by July 30th.

The Same Old People invite you to observe the change of the seasons with the North Country Fair. We celebrate and advocate for a healthy environment, cooperation and community, a vibrant alternative economy, and justice for every person and all forms of life. The fair is a gathering of craftspeople, artisans, musicians and community groups. Please join us to help bring the seasons around again.

Performers are volunteers. Each group will be paid a $100 stipend as a gesture of gratitude.

Each group will be paid the same amount regardless of set time or number of group members.

Length of set times are typically between 30-55 minutes (solo performers will receive a shorter set time).

Bands are invited to bring merch for sale around their set time, and may put out a tip jar – Bring a friend to help run your merch table!

FAIR DATES AND HOURS:

September 20th & 21nd, 2025 (10 am-6 pm)

Link to online music/performance required.

Priority is given to local performers, dancers, storytellers, and bands. We look for and select a diverse lineup of styles. We prioritize local performing groups over solo performers. We take the number of years a group has performed into consideration and will often skip a year after a group has performed 3+ years.
