About BeerRock

BeerRock is the craft beer and rock festival that lights up the historic center of Bolsena every summer. Located in an elegant village overlooking the lake of the same name in the province of Viterbo, the event spans two evenings. The squares and alleys of the medieval town are filled with stalls from selected breweries—offering everything from aromatic IPAs to robust Stouts—while live bands entertain the crowd with original rock and independent sounds. A large street food area complements the brews. Free admission, organized by the Associazione Bella Gente.

BeerRock: Where rock meets craft beer in Bolsena

Every summer, the historic center of Bolsena—an elegant village overlooking the lake of the same name in the province of Viterbo, in the heart of the Tuscia region—transforms for two evenings into a grand stage dedicated to craft beer and rock music. Born from the passion of the Associazione Bella Gente, BeerRock has become one of the most anticipated summer events on the lake, successfully blending great music, conviviality, and the discovery of independent breweries in one of the most evocative settings in Lazio.

A journey through hops and sounds

The format is simple and effective: selected stalls distributed along the squares and alleys of the medieval village guide the public on a true journey of fine drinking, from the most aromatic IPAs to the most structured Stouts, passing through light, amber, and bottom-fermented styles. Each evening, various bands take turns on the stages set up in the historic center, ranging across the many shades of rock: emerging voices, established artists, and new sounds from the independent scene meet in an engaging and informal atmosphere.

Street food and conviviality

To accompany the pints, there is a large street food area designed to pair the best street specialties with the rich selection of beers. Between a tasting and a concert, BeerRock becomes an opportunity to experience Bolsena in a different way, among the people, under the stars, with the lake as a backdrop. Over the years, the event has seen the participation of numerous craft breweries from the region and beyond, confirming itself as a showcase for Italian brewing culture.

Bolsena and the Tuscia region

Located on the shores of the largest volcanic lake in Europe, Bolsena is a jewel of the province of Viterbo, famous for the Basilica of Santa Cristina, the Eucharistic miracle, and its medieval historic center dominated by the Rocca Monaldeschi. Participating in BeerRock also means rediscovering this corner of Lazio, amidst history, nature, and good food, in a context where the festival becomes a promotion of a territory rich in charm.
