The 5th Annual Seattle Acoustic Festival is returning to Capitol Hill on August 24th and 25th for an incredible, two-day event provided to the public free of charge.

Sponsored by grants from Verity Credit Union, the Neighborhood Matching Fund of the City of Seattle Government. And also sponsored by Rain City Collective, London Tone Music, and CascadiaNow Seattle.

In its fifth year, the Seattle Acoustic Festival (SAF) has become the largest, independent, musician-powered festival on the West Coast. And this year, SAF will be provided with no admission charge, giving audiences of all ages up-close access to some of the most acclaimed musicians in the region.

“We’ve always felt it was very important to be very inclusive to a broad audience,” according to Paul Mauer, one of the festival’s co-founders. “It’s so rewarding to provide a free festival as part of our fifth year.”
