Special Events (do not use... use HLC and NOOM instead)

This year’s Northeast Regional Folk Alliance (NERFA) conference is taking place online only, Nov. 11-14, and its music showcases (through which we have discovered and booked many talented artists to perform for our audiences) are being opened to folk music fans.

You can purchase a "Music Only" virtual ticket for $20 (plus a $2.97 processing fee) and enjoy hours of music by artists from across the U.S. and Canada from the comfort of your own homes over this Veterans Day weekend and for 30 days afterwards (since all of the showcases are being recorded for later viewing). Although the conference also includes panel discussions and workshops, keynote speakers, peer group sessions, and awards presentations, the $20 "Music Only" ticket enables music lovers to enjoy curated online showcases only. These include all juried Formal Showcases, the Suzie Wollenberg Folk DJ Showcase, a BIPOC Showcase, open mics, and late-night guerrilla showcases.
