Plan to make every January special with unforgettable live music experiences that introduce (or remind) you why Portland is consistently ranked in the top five music cities in the country. It is not because of giant touring shows at the Moda Center. Every show you attend enters you into a drawing for a BIG prize.

Nothing is like the thrill of live music on a cold night. If you are unable to get out to see these shows in January, but you want to help save our music culture, make a TAX-FREE donation to MusicOregon’s Echo Fund. PDXMM 2022 helped to raise $50,000 to support local artists. see more about their projects soon. Every donation enters you again in our prize sweepstakes

Portlanders get it.

We support people and companies that support our values. We buy local. Drink local. Listen local. And with pretty much the most engaged fanbase in the whole USA, it’s no surprise our town rocks over 300 live music spots, 5 indie radio stations, and over 20,000 recording and performing artists. Indie, hip hop, rock, classical, folk, EDM, R&B, blues, jazz. Whatever music moves you, “It’s All Hear!” 

 

Music builds more bridges than we’ve got crossing the Willamette.

Portland Music Month is the brainchild of MusicOregon and some of the visionaries that first imagined Music Fest Northwest. Our goal: to light up the dark nights of January with a celebration of our incredible music scene and to encourage our city, its residents, and its businesses to actively support a music culture that makes Portland great.

MusicOregon is committed to raising funds to support creative empowerment for all of our state’s incredible artists. Portland Music Month raises funds from our largest music ecosystem to jumpstart public/private funding strategies and assure that artists in both urban and rural, Oregon communities receive their share of support.
