Noise Pop, the West Coast’s premier indie music, film and arts festival, returns February 25–March 2, 2014 for its 22nd year!

Noise Pop sprang to life in 1993: a single night in a small club showcasing the best the burgeoning San Francisco underground music scene had to offer. Over the last twenty one years, Noise Pop has developed into one of the country’s leading independent music festivals featuring many influential artists and musicians. The event has achieved grassroots and critical success as well as international recog-nition.

Noise Pop Festival today has evolved into a dynamic city-wide multi-media experience that now includes concerts, a film se-ries, art shows, culinary events, a pop up store, and a unique interactive workshop event—Culture Club.
