Eastport a Rockin' 2024

1 Day, 4 Stages, 40 Bands

Created in 1997 as a way to expose local music to a larger audience, Eastport a Rockin’ draws attendees from throughout the Eastport neighborhood and across the Annapolis area and is known as the local music festival of the summer.

We’ll have 40 bands on four stages, with some newer bands playing for the first time, including Honest Lee Soul, Madisun Bailey and Julian Ewald, joining perennial favorites like the Kelly Bell Band, Area 301, Michael McHenry Tribe, Grilled Lincolns and Dean Rosenthal. We’re excited to welcome back Sweet Leda, along with up-and-coming acts All You Need, Honey Sol, Luke Borchelt, and L. Rodgers (featured on the popular TV show The Voice). This year we’re featuring the extremely talented local women musicians who make up the Songbird Collective, including Danah Denice, Jeanette Lynn, Laura Brino & Meg Murray. The Eastport Oyster Boys remain the only band to have played Eastport a Rockin’ all 27 times.

With an unbeatable location surrounding the Annapolis Maritime Museum and Horn Point Harbor Marina on Back Creek in Annapolis’ historic maritime district of Eastport, this daylong festival offers everything an attendee could want. Mouth-watering food, including local seafood, BBQ, shave ice and more, will be available as will thirst quenching beverages, including an array of domestic and craft beers and a full range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

Tickets at the Gate will be $40 General Admission, $150 VIP, free for kids 12 and under, with discounts available online for advanced purchases.
