The layout usually involved the Main Stage and the Stillwell Stage , placed two blocks apart , upon which performances could go on simultaneously . Performance times were often staggered to allow the audience to move from one set to the next . The event could be considered a showcase for up-and-coming artists , but there were usually at least a handful of " big names " and seasoned musicians that performed as well . Sirenfest had traditionally always been on a Saturday and usually began in the early afternoon or late morning and continued well into the evening . The event was sponsored by many large corporations and publications who in return sought exposure with giveaways , handouts and literature at the festival . After a 10-year run , the event was discontinued and replaced by the 4knots Music Festival at South Street Seaport
