Oktoberi Surbakti, Program Director MCM Production, selaku pihak penyelenggara menjelaskan bahwa Noice Fest 2017 menyajikan musik yang menggambarkan dinamika kaum urban dan mengajak para penikmatnya untuk bebas berekspresi. Puluhan musisi terbaik yang digandeng seperti, Rhye, Alina Baraz, The Paper Kites, Dipha Barus x Kallula, Stars and Rabbit, Float, dan lain-lain, akan menyemarakkan dua panggung dengan instalasi efek digital.

Serangkaian penampilan digelar pada dua panggung terpisah dengan talent yang berbeda. Hari Pertama, panggung pertama A Noice Stage diisi oleh penampil utama yaitu, Yuka Tamada & Kawan Lama, The Trees & The Wild, Rendy Pandugo, Stars & Rabbit, Rhye, Peking Duk, dan Dipha Barus x Kallula. Panggung kedua bertajuk A Sound Stage diisi oleh Mantra Vutura, Abirama, Fisika Matematika & Diale, Kimokal, Elephant Kind, dan Diskoria Selekta.

Kemeriahan panggung A Noice Stage dimulai saat Stars and Rabbit naik panggung. Band yang mengusung genre pop-folk sukses menghipnotis penonton dengan penampilan uniknya yang khas. “Awalnya ngga bisa lihat wajah penonton, tapi begitu kena sorot lampu baru keliatan pada menikmati. Seneng rasanya kalo liat kalian menikmati apa yang kami suguhkan,” ujar Elda sang vokalis.

Lain halnya dengan musisi internasional, Rhye yang tampil setelah Stars and Rabbit merupakan salah satu penampil yang ditunggu-tunggu. Pada dua lagu terakhir, Mike personel dari Rhye meminta seisi ballroom untuk lebih tenang agar semua bisa lebih menikmati lagu yang disajikan.
