FAQ
What is Femme Fatale Fest?
Femme Fatale Fest is a celebration of women/femmes in local alternative music. We want to put together a bill of killer bands that feature at least one female member. Women have and always will be such an important part of rock music and we want to celebrate that! This festival is also a means to raise money to be donated to Rose Haven PDX, a local women’s shelter that does amazing work in our community.

What do the bands get paid for performing?
This year (as opposed to last year) the door fee is going directly to Rose Haven, not the bands. The festival is asking each band who participates to donate their time and talent to our charity, and at this time will not be monetarily compensated from the festival.
IF we can raise enough money from sponsorships we will happily offer the bands an upfront flat fee TBD.
