This site takes its name from the song “A Hilly Town” by the band Phantom Buffalo, used with permission, of course.

This site provides music event listings for the Portland, Maine area. The focus is on local and nationally touring indie rock acts, but many other genres and types of events may be included, considering the wide variety of entertainment options here in Portland.

All information provided on this site is subject to change, and we can’t be held responsible for outdated or incorrect listings. We only collect and share information that we find, and are in no way implying that we have set up or had any involvement in the shows listed (unless specifically noted otherwise). Every effort is made to maintain accurate event listings on Hilly Town, but sometimes plans change and we either have no way of knowing or find out too late. Tips are always welcome and encouraged. It is also a good idea to check with a venue about the show before you head out.

Feel free to send your events in for consideration to hello [at] hillytown.com. If it looks good, it’ll get added to the site!
