About Noise Pop
Noise Pop started over 30 years ago at the Independent as a 1-night show, and now it’s a massive weeklong festival that celebrates independent arts and culture. The festival is unique in that it takes advantage of all of SF and its venues to host the shows. Noise Pop regularly partners with various organizations like SF Parks Alliance, and Fort Mason to host events in San Francisco.
