Special Guests

This Year at Howe Island Rockin the Rock, we as part of our dedication to promoting Canadian Music will be seeking, selecting and presenting a "new Band". We are offering an opportunity to an emerging act that can demonstrate their determination to become a Band. The successful candidates will write perform and promote their music with our assistance. That band will be presented as an opening act that we hope will inspire them to pursue their dreams as performing artists.

Urban Art

Much like music, art has an important place in our community. Combining both art and music together, our festival bridges two creative styles as one. Guests will be able to enjoy the incredible aesthetic and inspiring beauty displayed around the venue. To learn more about what artists and installations will be present at the festival, get in touch today.

Local Love

What’s the best part about bringing together a group of like-minded individuals? Their drive to connect with one another and support local causes. At our festival, guests have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those throughout the local community. Bump up your karma and help us spread some love at this year’s festival.

Good Eats

What’s better than live music and delicious food? Our festival features some of the best and most delectable eats around. With help from our restaurant gurus and culinary experts, we select restaurants, food trucks, and tantalizing menus that will satisfy everyone’s tastebuds. Feast for yourself; purchase your tickets today.
