Our Annual 'Call to Performers'
The CTP Application will be posted here in early June.
IMPORTANT: Requests to perform consisting of an email with links to a website or Facebook page do not provide us with the information (in particular, fee structure) we need to make our selections.
Please keep in mind that as a part of our Mission: We focus on local and musicians and performers; we do not negotiate with third parties or management companies.
Due to the volume of CTP applications, we contact only those performers
that we are interested in contracting for our events.
- All sidewalks must remain open as pedestrian walkways.
MSD - Booths are set up at the curb; center of all streets open as pedestrian walkways.
Children's Day - Block Party on Pleasant Street, same rules as MSD.
Summer in the Street - Stage is set up on Pleasant St. with a PPI booth, same rules as MSD.
First Night - On Pleasant Street for Outdoor Street Dance with DJ booth, same rules as MSD.
- Due the size, scope of the crowds at MSD, we do not include roving/roaming musicians/performers at the event. The same applies on Children's Day.
With one stage at Summer in the Street, we do not include roving, roaming performers in the event footprint.
For First Night, no outdoor live performances take place within our event footprint.
As the event producer, we are responsible for setting up sound systems in compliance with all City Ordinances. In some cases, we provide the sound (MSD, Children's Day); there are instances where we allow performers to use their own sound systems (First Night, Summer in the Street).
Should you have any questions, contact bmassar@proportsmouth.org or (603) 433-4398 Ext. 3.
