Recommendation and Review

The 9^th annual Rocktown Beer & Music Festival is planned from 3pm-8:30pm at Turner Pavilion and Park on 4/20/19. The event draws 3,000-3,500 participants. The event requires the closure of Warren St., and the use of the Municipal Building and City Hall parking lots. The small lot between the Community Foundation and old Municipal building is also needed.

The total cost of the event is estimated between $2,760-4,455, to be split between the city and the event organizer.
