Get ready, Milford! The inaugural Milford Porchfest East Shore is just around the corner on Sunday, September 6, from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Featuring 90 performances across neighborhood porches, front yards, and driveways, Milford is about to come alive with an unforgettable afternoon of community and live music.
To help you navigate the music, manage your schedule, and catch every single act on your must-see list without missing a beat, festival organizers have launched a powerful, mobile-friendly web guide: porchfest.net/milfordeastshore. This website is brought to you in conjunction with our technology partner Park City Presents, whose mission is to democratize access to creative tech careers for Bridgeport students while expanding access to live arts experiences across the community. Best of all? No app download or account creation is required—just tap, plan, and enjoy!
Opening the site drops you straight into an interactive map. You can easily tap Band Pins to see who is rocking which driveway, or tap Time Pins to check out what is performing during each hour. Looking for something specific? Use the genre filter chips—such as Alt Rock, Country, Acoustic, or Classic Rock—to instantly tailor the map to your musical mood. Tapping Now Playing will immediately jump you to the acts performing right at that moment.
Prefer a clean chronological list? Switch instantly over to the Full Schedule tab. You can browse every single act slotted between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM, view precise street addresses, and click Directions to pull up walking or biking routes straight from your current location.
With so many fantastic bands playing simultaneously, scheduling conflicts are inevitable. Solve this by tapping the star icon next to any band you do not want to miss. Starred acts are automatically added to your custom My Schedule view, letting you curate your personal afternoon itinerary with zero stress.
Pro-Tip: Share Your Custom Schedule with Friends!

Milford Porchfest East Shore is a free community event powered by volunteer passion and the generosity of our neighbors. Every performing artist deserves support! The web guide includes direct Venmo links for every band—just look for the green Tip button next to their name. Every single dollar goes straight to the musicians keeping our porches rocking.
