Rooster Walk Music & Arts Festival

It's for the bands, and the fans, the staff and the vols. For the vendors and menders and you'uns and y'all. It's Rooster Walk Reunion, an amazing, intimate, limited-capacity festival Oct. 8-10, 2021 at Pop's Farm that will feature a full lineup of Rooster Walk festival alumni bands, plus all your friends and family.

We are thrilled to announce that Pop's Farm will host two nights of the legendary jamband moe. on Friday and Saturday (May 28-29) of Memorial Day weekend. This is NOT a pod show, but it is a socially distanced show.

After a lot of careful thought, research and discussion, Johnny, William and the Rooster Walk board of directors have made the very difficult decision to postpone RW12 until Memorial Day weekend of next year (May 27-30, 2021). We are heartbroken that we won’t get to see you at Pop’s Farm this spring, but ultimately the health and safety of all involved with the festival is our top priority.

Fourteen more bands have been added to the Rooster Walk Music & Arts Festival, led by Greensky Bluegrass rock’n’roll project, phAb.
