Join us at the 4th Annual Madness on Main Festival, presented by 8th Wonder Brewery. Houston’s favorite Independent Music fest! This year moving to the near northside, White Oak Music Hall and Raven Tower off N. Main, Sunday May 28th (Memorial Day Weekend). 1 Wristband, 3 stages, 20+ bands and much more!
What makes Madness on Main different than other fests? Everyone in the local music community plays an integral part to bring the festival together in true DIY form. Our audience comes with an open mind ready to discover new emerging artists. Madness on Main Fest would not be possible without the hard work of each performer, and the local music/art community (music writers/bloggers, photographers, promoters, record labels & management, print vendors, venues and visual artists. Madness on Main serves as a liaison between artists and media to gain interviews and develop artist portfolios.
