How can local musicians apply to perform on the Plaza?
Performers are encouraged to apply now to perform on the bandstand. The main consideration in the performer selection process is bands or individual artists who have the ability to really connect with the diverse cross-section of the people of Santa Fe and the audience of locals and tourists. The application deadline for bandstand performers is May 1.

Applicants should email mp3s, EPKs and web site links as well as high resolution photos and a one-line description of the musical genre. Also let us know where and when you are playing so we could have an opportunity to see you perform live.
