Festival of the Valkyries

Women. Power. Music.

On Friday, May 1st, the Valkyrie Music Collective will present Festival of the Valkyries; a free, all day music festival featuring a lineup of all local women, queer women, and trans women.

The day will begin with a panel discussion hosted on Zoom, focused on the challenges and future solutions of working in the masculine/male dominated music industry. Immediately following the panel discussion, Andrea Swensson, host of The Current’s ‘Local Show’, author of Got to be Something Here: The Rise of the Minneapolis Sound will make a keynote address. After the online conference portion of the festival, ‘Live’ Facebook performances will begin with a scheduled lineup of 20+ incredible Minnesota acts.
