Arise Music Festival’s eighth year was nothing short of passionate, creative and completely unified. There was no service on Sunrise Ranch, but a way deeper connection was found throughout attendees.

The fields began filling early Friday morning with a line of anticipated festival goers waiting to Arise to their fullest potential not only as music fans, but to thrive as a collective throughout the grounds.

Riding the high from last weekend's Red Rocks performance, the NorCal Reggae act STICK FIGURE joins the ARISE 2018 Lineup.

The ARISE Music Festival is committed to producing an annual gathering that is a vehicle for building and strengthening community. At the core of the ARISE mission is a firm belief that creating a festival experience which inspires positivity, joy and active engagement in issues of social justice is a call to celebrate the beauty and wonder of this precious life.

Hot off the heels of a sold-out 2017 - the annual ARISE Music Festival will return to beautiful Sunrise Ranch in Loveland, Colorado on August 3-5.

ARISE Music Festival tops 2017's outstanding lineup with the addition of Lettuce and SunSquabi to  join fellow headliners ranging from hip-hop to funk, reggae to rock, folk to electronic for anticipated The 5th Year Celebration at the beautiful Sunrise Ranch. ARISE’s 2017 headliners also include Atmosphere, TIPPER, Beats Antique, Ani DiFranco, Rising Appalachia, The Expendables, and Brother Ali as well as over 200 performances, presentations and more across seven stages this August 4-6.

Summers have become synonymous with outdoor festivals in Colorado over the years. In years past, we have been spoiled with the happenings at Red Rocks Amphitheater and Mishawaka Amphitheater, but within the last 5 years or so, it seems like many of the acts that may sell out these venues can be seen at some of the most fan friendly festivals in the world. Colorado knows how to take care of our guests. When musicians or travellers come to our state, they seem to never be disappointed and always come back for more.

Mark your calendars for ARISE Music Festival's 5th Year Celebration this August 4-6 at Sunrise Ranch in Loveland, Colorado. The 2017 ARISE Festival lineup includes Atmosphere, Tipper, Ani DiFranco, Rising Appalachia, Brother Ali, The Expendables, Dirtwire, Desert Dwellers and Late Night Radio; as well as featured appearances from bluegrass favorites The Travelin’ McCourys, Jeff Austin Band and The Brothers Comatose.

The perennial ARISE Music Festival will return to Loveland, CO for its fifth consecutive year on August 4-6, 2017. Held each year on over 100 acres at the picturesque Sunrise Ranch, the annual leave-no-trace event is offering a limited number of $99 "Loyalty Tickets” that will be on sale through Saturday, September 17, 2016, at 11:59 PM.
