PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 9, 2026. German folk band Faun will play the Roseland Theater on Friday, April 30, 2027. It is the last show currently on the Portland venue's calendar and a rare West Coast date for a band that tours North America only every few years.
Faun formed in Germany in the late 1990s and have spent more than two decades building what they call pagan folk. The music draws on medieval melodies and Nordic and Celtic traditions, played on hurdy-gurdy, nyckelharpa, bagpipes, harp and frame drums, with modern production and layered vocals on top. Their shows feel part concert, part ritual, and their audience includes folk fans, metal fans and Renaissance fair regulars in equal measure.
Why Portland
Portland has a strong scene for folk and dark-folk music, and the Roseland's size fits a band like Faun well. The room holds 1,410, mostly standing on the main floor, with a balcony for those who want a seat and a full view of the stage. The theater's calendar this winter, from Beast in Black and High On Fire to Frank Turner and the PDX Jazz Festival, shows how wide its crowd already is.
Tickets
Early resale listings start around US$64 for balcony rows, with averages near US$83 to US$87. Main floor tickets have been averaging about US$93. Balcony seating at the Roseland is often 21 and over and is not wheelchair accessible. The main floor has an ADA area on house right.
Getting there
The Roseland is at 8 NW 6th Ave. MAX light rail stops at NW 5th and Couch, a minute's walk, and SW 6th and Pine. Pay lots on Broadway, Burnside and Davis Street are close. Old Town and the Pearl District have plenty of places for dinner, and Screen Door's Pearl location is a short walk.
