YOU are invited to kick off Lafayette Music Fest’s official 2025 ticket sales with a party! Come on over to Acreage in Lafayette for some live music, tasty cider, beautiful views of the flatirons, and some fun!

There will be chances to win FREE festival passes, opportunities to buy your 2025 festival tickets for October, free drink giveaways, and some great live music by local rock band The Ephinjis! Doors open at 6pm and we encourage you to come hang with some of the 2025 performers, the festival organizers, and our host, local music nonprofit Rock For The People!

Lafayette Music Fest is hosted by Rock for the People, a local nonprofit organization that cultivates a diverse, inclusive and equitable local music community in Boulder County by removing barriers for performers, audio professionals, and music fans who are often underrepresented in our local music industry. Rock For The People offers free and low-cost rehearsal, recording, and marketing services and paid gigs for musicians and performers, plus paid opportunities for aspiring audio professionals. They prioritize serving and working with women, non-binary people, BIPOC, Hispanic, and LGBTQ+-identifying musicians, performers, audio professionals, and fans.

Come meet authors from our community and around Colorado! We’ll have tables and tents set up for a Meet & Greet on these dates. Different authors will attend different dates, so be sure to catch them all!
