Cuneiform Records presents Cuneifest 2011: a celebration of many years of hard work, great music and devoted listeners!

Two days of music, held in two venues in Baltimore, MD. The venues are approximately 5 miles apart.

Please note: These are both small, intimate venues with a maximum amount of only 65 seats available for sale per day. We are starting by selling 2-day passes only. At this time, there are two different options for buying tickets:

Option 1: PATRON FESTIVAL PASS

If you buy the Patron festival pass, you are paying a little extra to help support us in comfortably funding the festival. So, first of all, thank you very much!

What you get in return is:

A pass to both days of the festival.

First pick seating at both venues (note: in order to receive first pick seating, you have to be at the venue by the specified time so we can let you in early and you can pick your seats).
