Resurgam Music and Arts Festival

The Maine Academy of Modern Music (MAMM) is proud to announce the return of the Resurgam Music and Arts Festival presented by OTTO, on Sunday, June 8, 2025 at Ocean Gateway Park. This free, day-long celebration brings together Maine’s vibrant music scene, local artisans, and community arts organizations for Portland’s premier summer kickoff event.

Now in its 4th year, the Resurgam Festival has established itself as the successor to the beloved Old Port Festival, drawing over 7,500 attendees annually to enjoy multiple performance stages, interactive arts activities, local food vendors, and a curated marketplace showcasing Maine-made goods.

“At Resurgam, our entire community comes together to witness the incredible talent of established Maine musicians and the next generation of rock stars, celebrate the arts, and support local businesses,” says MAMM Executive Director Jeff Shaw.

Headlining this year’s festival are The Fogcutters and Genevieve Stokes.

The Fogcutters—who will be joined by special guests Kenya Hall and Gina Alibrio—are Portland’s own eclectic pop rock big band. Also taking the stage at Resurgam will be one of alternative pop’s brightest stars, Genevieve Stokes. A former MAMM student herself, Genevieve has recently been named among People’s “Emerging Artists” to watch list.

MAMM’s Resurgam Music & Arts Festival presented by OTTO is made possible by support from the National Endowment for the Arts, Maine Office of Tourism, Maine Arts Commission and the generosity of our many sponsors and partner organizations.
