Written by Admin on April 20, 2012. No Comments

We’re excited to announce our 7th year, bigger and better than ever.
RockFire 2018

New this year is our featured stage performer, Bobby Watt who will perform Saturday the 30th at 7pm. He has been called the best male voice in traditional music-anywhere” (Warren Robinson).

This years schedule is a bit new, both Friday & Saturday’s events will be held in the same location of Millstone Hill, 59 Little John Road, Websterville. You can see a more detailed schedule here.

Thanks to Eva Sollberger and Seven Days for their 2014 story!

Important Announcement: We are so sorry to announce that The Iron Guild will not be able to perform at this years RockFire Festival. Though it will be impossible to replicate what they do, we will be filling The Iron Guild time slot with a mix of other “fire performances” that we hope you will enjoy.

For the most up-to-date schedule, please check back often. Become a fan of our Facebook page, or contact Pierre with interest in volunteering.

Thanks to Jeb Wallace-Brodeur and Letter10 Creative for their images used throughout the site.
