Pocock Rocks Music Festival & Street Fair

Pocock Rocks Music Festival & Street Fair is Bristol's annual celebration of local musicians, artisans, crafters, food producers, and beverage makers. This awesome event is set in the Gateway to the Green Mountains, is FREE for all, and family-focused! Come dance, eat, shop, and play in Bristol for the day. Line up: The Barncasters, BodenBender, Organized Dead, Tom Bisson & The Rustics, Soulstice, and Jeremy Mendicino.

Why “Pocock”? Bristol was originally founded as Pocock on June 26th, 1762, in honor of a distinguished English admiral. The town’s name was changed, for unknown reasons, to Bristol about 25 years later in 1789.

Money raised from the Pocock Rocks Music Festival & Street Fair supports the community-building efforts of Bristol CORE.
