Street Performers Application
Application Deadline is May 1, 2025
Do you have an act to delight the masses at SLC's Open Streets?
SLC Open Streets will be held every Friday and Saturday in June from 2pm – 2am on Main Street from South Temple to 400 South.
We are seeking both professional and emerging artists to perform during this event. We mainly have spaces for street acts which will be scheduled in one-hour increments. These are for musicians and other performers that draw from the walk-by traffic. Street acts are most typically improv musical performances and/or acts like street poetry or magic. We also consider street art like caricatures, palm reading, live art demos. Finally, we are also seeking family friendly acts such as face painting, henna tattoo, balloon art, magicians etc.
These are paying gigs and a chance to build our city's busking scene, thanks to the City of Salt Lake for supporting the spontaneous and expressive nature of street performance.
Complete the form below to tell us a bit about your act. We are open to new and established acts. Provide links that show your existing work. If it’s a new act, do your best to describe fully what you propose for the festival. We invite your creativity and oddity, entertain us!
