BottleRock Napa is the ultimate 5-day celebration of music, wine, food, comedy and beer. A combination that could only reach its peak in The Napa Valley. Buy your 3-Day, 4-Day, 4-Day VIP, or Single Day Passes today – before they are gone!
Starting May 8th and running through May 12th, 2013, BottleRock will bring today’s hottest artists in music, food and wine to tens of thousands of fans right in the heart of Downtown Napa.
In just two easily walkable square miles along the picturesque Napa River, fans will be able to choose between multiple stages that offer the perfect venue for everything from 20,000 fist-pumping fans to an intimate acoustic set.
BottleRock caters to a discerning music fan that appreciates a wide variety of musical genres and settings. Incredible sightlines, the finest technical experience in sound, lighting and visual, and even additional indoor facilities, await every attendee. BottleRock delivers world class music with a level of civility, accessibility, artist access and intimacy, and creature comforts that enhance every verse. Unlike the notorious briskiness or extreme heat of other world class music festival locations, mid-May in Napa typically offers gorgeous 75-degree days and comfortable nights.
Music has always been part of the heart of Napa Valley and BottleRock aims to raise already high profile even higher. We will feature legendary artists, established favorites and up and comers for a wide spectrum of musical genres.
Ultimately, BottleRock will deliver an experience only the Napa Valley could provide. From the proximity to Downtown Napa’s famous restaurants and shops to unique events like “Live Lunches.” Live Lunches will feature BottleRock artists playing acoustic sets at select Premiere Partner Wineries. Wine club members and lucky fans will sip wines paired with food in intimate cellars, caves, and barrel rooms while enjoying the music.
The festival isn’t just about music. Wine lovers will have countless choices and unique opportunities to engage directly with winemakers and vintners in their natural habitat. And what is wine without food? Dozens of Napa Valley restaurants and chefs will provide the ultimate variety of offerings for food lovers.
WINE + FOOD + BEER
An abundance of choices in wine, food, beer and spirits await BottleRockers both inside the festival venues and throughout Downtown Napa. Some of the premiere wineries in America are active partners and will be featured at beverage retail locations throughout the festival. At the Napa Valley Expo, the epicenter of BottleRock, gourmet food trucks from throughout the Napa Valley will complement the numerous Napa Valley restaurants. In addition, more than a dozen California craft beers will be on hand. Check out the amazing line up of wineries and food offerings.
VENUES
Three main stages at Napa Valley Expo and more than 30 VIP “after-party” locations will be home to the heart of the Bottle Rock experience.
Schedule
With over 60 bands on 3 Napa Expo Stages, and more than a dozen of today’s funniest comedians, there will be plenty of shows to see. The best part is you don’t have to pick and choose between days. With a multi-day pass you will have plenty of opportunity to see and hear all of your favortes while discovering the artists that will fill your playlist well into the future!

Causes
When you buy your pass to BottleRock Napa, you are doing more than just attending an incredible, new, unique music festival with over 60 bands. And you are doing more than eating the best food and enjoying the best wine. You’re having the time of your life for 4 amazing days in Napa, and you are doing it all for a good cause – many good causes in fact.
BottleRock Napa Valley was created by WillPower Events, which has produced other concerts for causes, primarily around autism. Philanthropy is at the heart of this festival, as evidenced by the WillPower Pavilion, where concert goers can learn more about BACCHUS (Bands, Artists, Comedians, and Communities Helping Us Serve) Benefits and causes we support, bid on auction items donated for the causes, drink, eat, and even hear some of the artists play an acoustic set in an intimate setting.
BottleRock Napa Valley is partnering with several highly worthy non-profits, providing exposure for their messages in addition to direct revenue for these cause-based organizations that are doing great work in and around the Napa Valley. $4 from every festival ticket sold will go to our community partners.
The BottleRock 2013 Community Partners include: Autism CHORDS (Cure, Housing, Ocean Resources, Development, and Socialization), Land Trust of Napa County, Foundation for Recreation (Napa Parks and Recreation), Downtown Merchants’ Association, and Napa Valley Unified School District “Music Connection”.
Autism CHORDS
An estimated 1 out of 54 boys and 1 in 252 girls are diagnosed with autism in the United States. By way of comparison, more children are diagnosed with autism each year than juvenile diabetes, AIDS, or cancer combined. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) affects more than two million individuals in the U.S. and tens of millions worldwide. Moreover, government autism statistics suggest that prevalence rates have increased 10 to 17 percent annually in recent years. And there is no established explanation for this continuing increase. Autism CHORDS was created to help families cope with the challenges facing people suffering from ASD.
BACCHUS Benefits Group
and Bottoms Up for Bacchus
Formed to help smaller non-profits and charities raise visibility and funding, BACCHUS Benefits Group puts selected non-profit partners in front of large, generous audiences, where fundraising can reach new levels.
In addition to donations from each ticket, for every beverage (water, soft drinks, coffee, beer, wine) sold, $1 will go to the BACCHUS Benefits Group, a non-profit that provides local charities with funding and donations made through events like BottleRock.
