Open Mic

We're delighted to be launching the very first Open Mic at The Magpies Festival this summer! Whether you're a seasoned performer, an occasional sing-around participant, or stepping onto a stage for the very first time, we'd love you to share your music with us.

Please note that places were allocated on a first-come, first-served basis and the line-up is now full for 2026.

Date: Friday 14th August
Time: 2:00pm-4:00pm

Performance Slots: Each act will be allocated a maximum of 10 minutes

Eligibility: All performers must hold a valid ticket for The Magpies Festival.

Check-In: All performers must check in at the stage by 1:45pm. The running order will be confirmed at this time. If you have not checked in by 1:45pm, your slot may be offered to another performer.

We will provide up to 2 mics and up to 3 instrument channels. Please bring your own instrument leads.
