The local music history in Maine is a mixture of folk, jazz, classical, and klezmer. But whether you enjoy country or metal, you’ll find some concerts in Maine that will knock you off your feet, especially in Portland or Bangor. Many describe the music scene as extremely good for the size of the state since it’s the 12th smallest in the USA by area.
Stephen Sanchez is a multiple Grammy winner, and his music inspired by the 1920s touches the souls of fans worldwide. He’s on the list of concerts coming to Maine, with a visit to Portland scheduled for October. Gracie Abrams, an indie-pop star, is also on Portland’s music calendar that month.
Creed often holds global tours, and one of the stations where they’ll perform ”Away from the Sun” and other hits will be Bangor in November. If you enjoy listening to metal bands, A Day to Remember will make a stop in Portland the same month, and that shapes up to be a concert to remember. Those who prefer rap can look forward to the LOX concert in Portland in December.
Cross Insurance Center in Bangor, opened in 2013, can hold up to 8,500 people for music events. However, Portland venues are more popular for Maine concerts. It has a 6,200 seating capacity, which can increase up to 9,500 for music shows.
State Theatre in Portland can accommodate up to 1,870 people in its beautiful historic venue. Merrill Auditorium, which was first opened in 1912, is another fantastic location with a 1,908-seat auditorium. Waterville Opera House in the city of the same name also has a rich history since it was built in 1897.
Find the perfect event: The first approach is to look for bands and concerts near you that align with your musical preference. We also suggest exploring other genres occasionally since trying something new could be refreshing. You can start looking as early as tonight to make sure there are tickets remaining for the desired event.
Consider the venue, date, and time: The location should be near enough, and your schedule shouldn’t be full on the day of the concert. Also, make sure your budget is sufficient for the desired event.
Best time to visit: Summers are busiest in Maine, while Fall is great for those preferring smaller crowds.
Age and other limitations: These largely vary on the venue, so it’s best to check event details and the place’s website.
Make a list of must-have items for the concert, including tickets, ID, and money, according to the planned budget. If you plan to drive, check for potential parking spots and make sure the driver doesn’t consume alcohol. Also, plan the trip well – it’s always better to arrive at least a few hours before the concert than to be late. Pick the proper outfit and always have a water bottle to avoid dehydration.
