Garwood Rocks Set for June 5

Garwood Rocks!

Garwood is revving up to rock out and enjoy a full day of family fun, with this year’s event being held in its normal schedule, Sunday, June 5, 2022, from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. (rain or shine) in downtown Garwood. 

Garwood Rocks! features a classic car show hosted by “Hot Rod Mike” which is expected to draw over 100 cars this year, in addition to an all-day live stage, entertainment, vendors, and festival food including many local area favorite food trucks. Artisans and craftspeople will display paintings, pottery, photography, handmade jewelry, furniture, and many other unique gifts. The Crossroads will once again sponsor the Beer & Wine Garden and provide the main entertainment at the Garwood Rocks main stage. This year we have three featured bands, Algonzo Inc. at 2 p.m.; The Funktion Band at 3:30 p.m. and headliner, 4 Flight Rock at 5 p.m. A fun day for the whole family and admission is free!

“The family-friendly Garwood Rocks! festival is a great example of Garwood’s close-knit community,” said Adam Pasternack, President of Russo Property Management. “This is one of the best events Union County has to offer and we were delighted to support last year’s much anticipated return, which drew thousands of excited music, classic car and food enthusiasts to downtown Garwood. We’re excited to be on board once again at a time when our Vermella community in town is welcoming new residents every day who are enjoying all that Garwood has to offer.”
