Free Week
Starts the weekend of the first week of the year
Various venues
Kick the new year and your new budget goals off right with a whole week of free live shows during the aptly named Free Week. Started as a way to get people into venues, it continues to be a means to amass newfound fans for local and regional bands. While there are always several shows during the week, the weekend is even busier with additional parties and promotions to send off the first week of the year.
All these shows are free, but don’t worry, the bands still get paid (of course, you’ll still need to pay for any drinks you order).
