Hopscotch Music Fest Day Parties Full Schedule

As mentioned a few times in the past month, not only will there be tons of bands playing multiple venues in Downtown Raleigh at night for Hopscotch, but the days will be filled with music as well at most of those same venues. Below is the full schedule for all of the Hopscotch Day Parties, including the two hosted by New Raleigh. Also, stay tuned next week for New Raleigh’s recommendations for both day and night parties if you are way too confused as to who many of these bands are and want someone (like us!) to guide your way through the weekend. And below the day parties is another rundown of the night schedules.

ABOUT ODDSAC

(Friday, Sept. 10th, 3pm)

Only six hours before Panda Bear takes Hopscotch’s co-headlining spot on Friday, Sept. 10, in Raleigh City Plaza, filmmaker Danny Perez will screen Oddsac, the new experimental film by Panda Bear’s band, Animal Collective. The Los Angeles Times recently called Oddsac “a bleakly funny and seriously accomplished riff on a generational reflex to laugh at anything that scares us.”

Galaxy Cinema (770 Cary Towne Boulevard, Cary) will host the screening at 3 p.m., and Perez and special guests will then lead a question-and-answer session with the audience. Admission is $5, and giveaways include posters and newly released DVD copies of Oddsac. For more, see www.oddsac.com.
