Hopscotch Music Festival is an annual three-day music festival in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, United States. With more than 120 bands, Hopscotch is known for adventurous lineups, memorable performances, and a fan-friendly atmosphere. From large outdoor main stages in Raleigh City Plaza and Red Hat Amphitheater to intimate club shows, the festival features music of many genres—rock, hip-hop, metal, folk, electronic, experimental, and more—and its schedule highlights this diversity each year.[1]
Overview
Hopscotch Music Festival is an annual three-day music festival in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, United States.
Other festival features include:
- The Hopscotch Design Festival, launched in 2014, is a two-day gathering of designers, thinkers, and makers who work across graphic design, architecture, user-experience design, technology, food, film, music, and more.
- Day parties — Record labels, local promoters, bands, and arts organizations book their own shows that happen throughout the city each afternoon of Hopscotch.
- Organized by local poster artists, POSTERscotch is a festival-long poster exhibition and market. The artists sell their work onsite and keep all of the proceeds.
- SiteWork is an emerging artist-led cooperative providing exhibition opportunities and facilitating new projects in Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill. SiteWork connects disparate ideas and constituencies, forging new physical and conceptual sites for contemporary art in a rapidly changing Southern cultural landscape. SiteWork exhibitions take place throughout Raleigh during the festival.
History
Hopscotch was founded by Greg Lowenhagen and Grayson Currin while they worked for Steve Schewel, now the City of Durham's Mayor, at the Independent Weekly, a local alternative weekly newspaper and media company. In 2015, Lowenhagen and Schewel sold the festival to Hopscotch Presents, LLC, a partnership between Travis Janovich, the founder of Etix, and co-owners Paul Laughter and Ben Wingrove.
2010
The first Hopscotch Music Festival took place September 9–11, 2010. It featured 130 bands in 10 venues.
The headliners were hip-hop group, Public Enemy, with Los Angeles trio No Age and Raleigh's The Love Language (Saturday) and indie rock giants Panda Bear and Broken Social Scene with Raleigh's The Rosebuds (Friday). A surprise performance by Raleigh's Helping Hand Mission Marching Band electrified the audience prior to Public Enemy's performance.
Coverage of the 2010 festival included:
- Rolling Stone, "Public Enemy, Broken Social Scene Lead Hopscotch Fest" [2]
- "This is something that's in front of your face," said Chuck D of the Hopscotch concept. "And when it's done well, it makes people say, 'Shit, maybe this is what it's about anyway."[2]
- "We've had a scene in North Carolina for a very long time," said 9th Wonder, taking a breather between events in his hotel room on Saturday. He's referring not just to NC's hip-hop scene, but also its indie-rock bands, centered around Chapel Hill's Merge label for the past two decades. "There's been ups and there's been downs, from the hip-hop side to the rock side, but Hopscotch brings it all together and brings validity to it."[2]
- Paste Magazine, "Hopscotch Festival 2010 Greatest Hits" [3]
- My favorite part was the energy of a crowd out to see some music. Nothing was going to stop them from seeing music. They were going to see all the music. That sheer determination converted me: I slipped into the crowd and immediately abandoned all pretense of maintaining an academic disinterest in the bands I'd only heard of peripherally. It swept away my staunch decision to maintain no bias when seeing a band I kind of love right now.[3]

- New Raleigh, "New Raleigh Does Hopscotch: Day One" [6]
- Based on our New Raleigh staff's experience, the first night of Hopscotch was a crazy mess of success! [6]
- One of the really nice things about the fest so far is that the bands all seem to be playing right on schedule. So, none of the normal guessing games of what the "real" set time will be: Hopscotch set a time frame and they're sticking to it.[6]
- New Raleigh, "Hopscotch Highlights" [7]
- In a weekend in which I heard "best weekend ever" uttered a record number of times, how do you pinpoint the most epic of moments? Everything about that weekend was beautiful.[7]
- A huge cultural event for the downtown, commercially driven, and beautifully organized for attendees.[7]
- Raleigh will never be the same after last weekend.[7]

2011
The second Hopscotch Music Festival took place September 8–10, 2011. It featured 150 bands in 13 venues.
The headliners were The Flaming Lips with Superchunk and Dreamers of the Ghetto (Saturday) and Guided By Voices with Drive-By Truckers and The Dodos (Friday).
Coverage of the 2011 festival included:
- USA Today, "Looking for a hip, new music fest? Try Hopscotch" [15]
- "It turns out the Hopscotch Music Festival is a huge reason to head down to Raleigh, N.C., in a few weeks. [... It] sounds like a not-to-miss weekend."[15]
- Spin, "8 Best Moments of Hopscotch Festival" [16]
- "'How much control do we have over the disco ball?' singer-songwriter John Vanderslice asked onstage at the Berkeley Cafe on Friday night. Someone flicked a switch and the room filled with color, to the delighted oohs and aahs of the crowd."[16]
- News & Observer, "Hopscotch: perfection, indeed" [17]
- "It is the nature of events like the Hopscotch Music Festival to either grow to oversized proportions, or wither and die. If Hopscotch's organizers could somehow bottle it and keep the festival right at this year's size indefinitely, that would be a very fine thing because it's really been perfect so far. The clubs have been crowded, but mostly not too crowded, with a great energy at shows around town and out on the street. Hopscotch has brought together a wonderful sense of critical mass -- the feeling that there's not only a lot of people on the town to hear music, but the right people."[17]
- Mountain Xpress, "Hopscotchin' in Raleigh" [18]
- "The festival is like a younger cousin to SXSW or CMJ. It's loaded with afternoon label showcases and corporate parties, then the official performances at a dozen venues across town. However, where the enormity of cities like Austin or New York make it all but impossible to jump between bars without spending your entire festival en route, Hopscotch is small enough that skipping between shows actually makes sense. Plus, roaming the streets between can't-miss acts leaves lots of time to run into new friends, get sidetracked into unexpected shows or end up on a random adventure. And there was plenty of that."[18]
