BRISTOL — Downtown development organization Bristol CORE recently announced that the Pocock Rocks Music Festival & Street Fair will return to Bristol on June 16.
In its 9th year, the Pocock Rocks celebrates Bristol as a great place to shop, dine, live, work and visit.
Organizers will close off Main Street from 3-8 p.m. and will present live musical performances from six well-known and loved regional bands. The event will also host over 30 vendors from microbrews, hard ciders and spirits, to specialty foods, gifts and crafts.
There will also be the SunCommon Bouncy House, Vermont National Guard activities, and, of course, Bristol’s own incredible restaurants and shops.
This year’s musical lineup includes the Starline Rhythm Boys, Eames Brothers Band, Steady Betty, The Welterweights, Tim Brick, and Richard Ruane and Beth Duquette. An after party at Hatch 31 at the east end of Main Street will feature an encore performance by The Welterweights.
Pocock Rocks is a signature event from Bristol CORE, and is sponsored by Vermont Federal Credit Union, Heritage Automotive Group, SunCommon, Addison Independent, 99.9 The Buzz, and Neat Repeats.
