Over 3 decades ago, friends got together to play some music in the park across from the beach... you know, 'the meadow' ... with a view of the ocean, some swings and a slide... yeah, that place with the waterfall and the bridges over the streams. Nice.

Since 1979, the festival has brought performers from many genres - acoustic rock, folk, world, blues, jazz, Celtic, bluegrass, world vibe, and more - from across the country to perform during the peak of our summer season in Rockport, Massachusetts.

The Cape Ann region is about an hour north of Boston and is an ideal location for a summer music festival - with its historic sights, shops, galleries, restaurants, and natural beauty.

Each year the line-up of entertainers changes and the festival takes on its own shape, though some things remain constant from year to year: it is free, open to all, and family-friendly.

The festival is a non-profit enterprise. Performers and organizers are contributing their time and talent without compensation. It's all for the music and the fun!
