The Time of Rivers Festival, set in the beautiful city of Portland, Maine, focuses on exploratory stringed instrumental soloists with an emphasis on the guitar. There are however a few ensembles who round things out a bit and hopefully complement the other musicians. Last year’s inaugural festival was a huge success with locals and visitors from all over due to the the diversity of the players and the various approaches to their instruments.
Tickets for the evening shows are $15 advance, $18 at the festival. Passes for all three evening shows are $35 in advance and $45 at the festival. Buy them here.
Tickets for the afternoon shows are $5 and available first-come, first-serve at the door only.
