Save the date! Soundcheck is returning to Port Townsend February 27-March 1, 2026. More details coming soon!
In 2019, the first Soundcheck was launched in the months leading up to the inaugural THING festival in Port Townsend. The first Soundcheck focused on local music in local venues, with a songwriter showcase and an awesome bus that shuttled between venues. Venues were packed and brimming with energy, in a joyous and uplifting celebration of our town’s up-and-coming musicians. Since then, the Soundcheck festival has grown to include a multitude of new events, created vital partnerships with local organizations like KPTZ and Key City Public Theatre, and has been taken under the wing of the Port Townsend Creative District.
Soundcheck will be back in 2026! Lookout for more information about an even more multidisciplinary showcase for the incredible artists in in East Jefferson County coming soon.
