The 14th Montauk Music Festival

This year’s festival was a bit different. However, it was extremely well attended and the music- as always- was Outstanding. We had to postpone the MAIN STAGES during the May 4-day Festival- and as promised, those performances will be held in June.

The Montauk Music Festival (MMF) is a volunteer-run, grassroots live music event designed to celebrate, support, and promote the thriving Montauk music scene while showcasing and stimulating the burgeoning artistic, commercial and pedestrian activity in Montauk.  The festival would not be possible without the generous support by businesses and individuals, who, like the festival organizers, are dedicated to nurturing this vital component of the area’s culture.  MMF is a Montauk Sun Production.
