๐ŸŽถMontrose Live Music Company Ltd presents...Montrose Music Fest 2024!๐ŸŽถ

With up to 100 acts in over 20 venues, we bring you the number one FREE music festival in the area. The music festival has been a well anticipated event for the past 15 years in the town, bringing an influx of people from near and far together with the power of music. Had it not been for Covid we would be celebrating its 17th

annual event. Although the event has changed names and companies over the years, the end goal has always been to provide a fantastic, free event for the local community. We hope you are all looking forward to Montrose Music Fest 2024 as much as we are!!!

On Saturday Lochside Bar will have Coo's in the Roond from 7-10pm, and The Neptune Bar will be bringing on Junkyard Dogs from 8-11pm - so both ends of town are sorted for good time ๐Ÿป The Neppie will also host Maree Adams this weekend on Sunday from 3-6pm ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Northern vaults will be getting rid of those Sunday blues for us with the The Burnt Oot Blues Band from 5-8pm ๐ŸชŠ

And if you end up missing Junkyard Dogs on Saturday, don't worry!! They're back from 6-9pm on Sunday at The Market Arms ๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŽธ
