Performer/Visualist applications are LIVE!

We're getting things rolling already, can you believe it?!

MAGWest 2020 is a thing*, we're inviting all musical guests and visualists interested in performing on our stages to apply now using our form!

(Technically this application has been live since last year's event, but we think it's much more relevant now that we’re in the same calendar year as the event.)

MAGWest looks for bands and performers spanning VGM, chiptune, nerdcore, and more. We value diversity not only in genre, but also in underrepresented races, colors, genders, and creeds. We strive to collectively celebrate the community by bringing everyone together for an inclusive experience.

If you're a sound-making performer (probably no mimes on the main stage, sorry) and want to share your tunes and grooves with the masses, or if you're a visualist with the talent for making pretty things come alive, we highly encourage you to take the time to apply to perform at MAGWest. Alternatively, if you can’t make music yourself, but you know someone who would be perfect for the stage, please encourage them to apply!

While this form isn't a prerequisite for playing at our other stages like Jamspace, Chipspace, or the Pool Party (and Variety Stage?!), all acts that apply to this form are eligible for these other stages as well!

The application period for performers and visualists will close on April 30, 2020. Not all applicants will be informed that they were not selected, but we will announce when all selections have been made. Please see the application form for more details.

*Note regarding COVID-19: MAGWest is scheduled for September 2020. We are closely monitoring the situation and updates from the CDC, and will continue to adapt accordingly.
