IT'S RAFFLE TIME

HELP KEEP MUSIC IN THE CITY FESTIVAL FREE - PLEASE BUY A £5 RAFFLE TICKET

Music in the City multi venue music festival is powered by our team and volunteers, the passion of our performers and music lovers, our local host venues and Southampton's community spirit. Delivering this event at the scale it has now reached comes with significant costs to do safely and as professionally as we possibly can. We need you help please to keep our festival free and accessible to us all.

If everyone who attended last year’s festival purchased just one £5 raffle ticket, the entire cost of running Music in the City would be covered for this year.

Please support us through the purchase of a ticket.
