The Community Benefits Garden of the Upper Perkiomen Valley Garden Club does a lot of good for the community. You can stop by and see for yourself when you go to hear the music. One faithful MMUP volunteers feels this is the very best spot in the Valley!

Bike and Sol has been a venue since the very first MMUP, in 2013. In those days, bikes were not part of the audience, but we love the way they enliven the atmosphere for the musicians! You’ll hear lots of young and local talent there.

NEW VENUE for ’26 is The Carriage House restaurant in Palm. The music will be on their grassy hillside behind the restaurant. You'll see arrows directing you to the path to the music . And of course if you are hungry, there is good food right there. (But you can listen to the music even if you aren’t dining!)
