SPRING REVERB is a four-day festival that promotes, develops and showcases the Kingston music scene! This season marks the third edition and runs May 30-June 2. With live music and concerts, panels and special guest talks, SPRING REVERB will highlight local emerging acts, welcome cool out-of-town headliners, build connections between visiting industry guests and artists, provide opportunities for learning, and of course, be an awesome party downtown Kingston.
Check out the lineup and ticket info below! Have a question, shoot us an email at hello@kppconcerts.com

SPRING REVERB has something for all budgets! Here's info on admission, tickets, and passes:
FREE CONCERTS: many concerts are free of charge and admission is first-come first-served. Arrive early to ensure entry!
FREE PANELS: our panel events are free, but space is limited! Panels will be announced May 1 and preregistration will open on that day, as well.
TICKETS: ticketed events can be purchased on our website, in-person at Brian's Record Option, or in-person day-of-show (if not sold out).
PASSES: passes get you into everything at SPRING REVERB, perfect for venue-hopping and deciding on-the-go. You'll also get exclusive SPRING REVERB merch and an invite to parties, perfect for networking or just chilling out between shows. While we hold back lots of spots for pass-holders, some venues are small, so admission is not guaranteed. If there's a show you absolutely need to see, we recommend arriving early with your pass, or buying a ticket to ensure your spot.
