ROCKSTALGIA
2027
JULY 9–10, 2027
Details coming soon · Location announcement coming soon
TWO DAYS. TWO STAGES. ONE EPIC WEEKEND.
ROCKSTALGIA Music Festival is a two-day rock festival uniting the rock of the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s and today. Our first edition took place in July 2026 in Clarington, Ontario, bringing together fans who grew up on classic rock, the kids who inherited their record collections and a new wave of local bands.
Created by Festival Director Angela Baltkois, Rockstalgia is built on a simple idea: rock belongs to everyone, and it sounds best when generations share it.
