Solfest Rollfest, a sustainably-inspired outdoor music festival, will bring the rock and roll to Earlewood Park on Saturday. Featuring 10 acts on two stages, this will be Cola’s first festival with a bike-powered stage and a zero-waste goal.

🥤 What to bring

In addition to the good vibes, come out early and make a day of it. A bicycle valet will be available to keep your bike safe and attendees are encouraged to bring a container for drinks, a blank t-shirt to be printed with festival graphics, and a blanket + sunscreen.

🚴 How can I participate?

If you’d like to ride and help power the stage, sign up to volunteer or assemble a team of up to six riders. If you’d like to sit back and enjoy the music, the festival will host a group ride at 10:30 a.m. to kick off the day. Riders are encouraged to decorate their bikes for a 2.6-mile ride around the Earlewood neighborhood for all ages and skill levels.

Pro tip: If you sign up to ride and power the stage, you’ll get free entry to the festival.

Grab your tickets today for $15 or $20 day of festival. Children 13 and under get in free.
