ENTERTAINMENT SELECTION PROCESS
We have gotten many questions on how bands are chosen for the People's Fair each year.  Please understand that we have worked very diligently over the last several years to make the process transparent and fair.  Here is a run-down of how it works:

  • We send out applications in late November/early December to all bands in our database (to be added to the database, call Nicole at 303.830.1651); we also make the application available online and our UMX media partners (99.5 The Mountain and The Onion) help promote our search for bands.
  • We collect all apps and CDs, and hold a listening party with our entertainment committee – many of whom are very involved in the local music scene – listen to all bands who have not previously performed at the fair.  The bands are scored, the scores are compiled, and the top-scoring 80-90 new bands are asked to audition at our live auditions – the Ultimate Music Xperience (UMX).  We invite media, those involved in local music, our previous People’s Fair bands and the general public to listen and score those bands (this year the UMX will be at Bender's 13th Ave. Tavern on March 27 and 28, from 10am-6pm both days).
  • When the UMX scores are compiled, we take a look at the bands who have performed at the Fair and the top half (usually) from the live auditions and create the entertainment schedule from that.
  • Other questions?  Call Roger or Andrea at 303.830.1651.
