Kelly Nobles of RAIL Performs at the 2023 Rock The Locks Music Festival
Music fans mark your calendars. The second annual Rock the Locks Music Festival is approaching fast. In three weeks, the festival, which is being held at the Big River Golf Course October 4-6, will turn Umatilla, OR into a music lovers paradise.
​
The festival will feature headliners Halestorm (Friday), Stone Temple Pilots (Saturday) and Barenaked Ladies (Sunday). Other bands making the trip to Rock the Locks will include Hoobastank, Phillip Phillips, Cory Marks, and Swedish rock band Eclipse among others. In all, over 20 acts featuring international, national and regional bands will perform on two different stages over the course of the weekend.
​
Last year’s inaugural event drew nearly 8000 people over the course of the 3-day weekend to see headliners Collective Soul, ZZ Top and Night Ranger and other featured acts. This year, with word of mouth spreading how exciting the festival was and more insight into planning, event organizers are hoping to draw crowds of 5000 per day.
