Botlerock is a relatively young music festival that has been going on since 2014. It brings together a variety of artists working in popular musical forms mostly rock and pop, but also some hip-hop, country, and blues, while also providing an outlet for a number of local wineries to also come in and introduce their products. It is in Napa Valley, after all. There is also a culinary angle to the festival, with a stage reserved for that purpose. The festival has been growing in size in the past few years especially following the pandemic cancellation of 2020. It is a multi-stage, three day festival that starts on a Friday, and takes place outdoors on the Napa Valley Expo grounds, typically towards the end of May, right before June.
