Rock Fest is an annual four-day rock festival held near the town of Cadott, Wisconsin. Rock Fest is usually held on the third weekend (Wednesday–Saturday) of July.

The venue hosts more than 7,000 campsites for campers with RVs or tents, as well as the amphitheater concert grounds for the four days of shows that feature national rock music acts each year. On site there are convenience stores, a merch store, concessions, and side stages that feature regional acts between main stage performances.

Due to COVID-19 and restrictions in place for festivals and concerts in 2020, there was no Rock Fest that year. Rock Fest returned in 2021.

Attendance

The annual attendance of Rock Fest is between 25,000 and 35,000 people daily.[2] Daily crowds can be as large as 50,000 people if the band headlining is popular

Attendance is made up mostly from the Midwest (Wausau, Wisconsin, Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Chippewa Falls, Stevens Point, Wisconsin, Marshfield, Wisconsin area) and the Minneapolis, Minnesota area.
