Since 1995, the City of Rochester has produced its legendary “Rochester Music Festival” as a family-friendly experience designed to offer authentic, grassroots community engagement. Building on that legacy, 2022 will be even more momentous. With a focus on community and creating a huge boost for local businesses, this year’s festivities will celebrate 26 historic years.

Re-branded as the “Rochester Summer Soul Music Festival in 2018,” Xperience Live Events has continued to garner regional excitement.
