Live Music anywhere you go!

We're revamping our Music stages at #CDAF2025! This year, we'll have one main stage and several music tents sprinkled throughout the festival so there's live music wherever you go.

Live music at CDAF is an integral part of the festival that allows us to highlight local performers and entertainers from all over the Golden triangle. The stages also feature performances by winners of the Songwriter Competition Showcase and musical performances by local students and community groups like orchestras and school bands.

For additional questions on how to be a performer at #CDAF2025, please email [email protected].
