TEAM ROCKSTALGIA
ONE FESTIVAL. INFINITE MEMORIES.
Rockstalgia began with a simple belief from founder Angela Baltkois: the music that shaped us should bring us together. In July 2026 that belief became our first festival in Clarington, Ontario, a weekend where parents, kids and grandparents sang the same songs.
Today a small, passionate team keeps the movement going all year, with local showcases, a battle of the bands and support for the causes our community cares about.
