MidPoint continues its standing tradition of making Cincinnati the destination for catching exceptional live music experiences amongst a diverse lineup of pioneering performers and new music explorers.

Since 2001, MidPoint’s goal has been to help you discover your new favorite band. Our embrace of today’s emerging artists is born of the same spirit employed by Cincinnati’s celebrated musical pioneers, who always reached for something new.

Artists and fans alike flourish when music is enjoyed live. Each September, fans across the entire region trek to Cincinnati to get up close and personal in some of the most intimate festival settings available.

For three days each fall, fans can walk or bike easily between venues dotted throughout beautiful, resurgent Over-the-Rhine. This collection of young creative talent amongst an architecturally rich urban setting makes MidPoint a one-of-a-kind experience.

Over-the-Rhine is on the National Register of Historic Places and was voted “Best Cincinnati Neighborhood” in CityBeat’s Best of Cincinnati in 2014.

Advance tickets now on sale at MPMF.com:
All-Access Pass — $69 ($79 after 9/1/14); VIP Pass — $179

People who prefer to purchase tickets in person can find a box office available on Fountain Square during the free MidPoint Indie Summer concerts, happening each Friday evening, May 30–August 29.
