Your Guide to BottleRock Napa Valley 2027

BottleRock Napa Valley has grown into one of the most sought-after music festivals in the country since its debut in 2013. Held annually over Memorial Day weekend at the Napa Valley Expo in downtown Napa, California, the three-day festival draws around 40,000 fans per day with a lineup that spans rock, pop, hip-hop, EDM, and everything in between.

What sets BottleRock apart from other major festivals is its deep connection to Napa Valley's food and wine culture. The BottleRock culinary stage pairs musicians with celebrity chefs for live cooking collaborations — yes, you might see a Grammy winner flipping burgers alongside a Michelin-starred chef. Local wineries and craft breweries set up throughout the grounds, and the food vendor lineup is curated to reflect the best of Northern California cuisine. It's a feast for every sense.

The festival grounds feature multiple stages, including the main JaM Cellars Stage, the Verizon Stage, and the Lagunitas Stage, plus acoustic sets, comedy acts, and art installations scattered across the Expo grounds. The VIP experience adds premium viewing areas, exclusive lounges, and dedicated food and drink options. The Skydeck and Platinum tiers take it even further with elevated platforms, all-inclusive hospitality, and up-close stage access.

BottleRock has a strict 10 PM curfew — unique among major festivals — which keeps the energy focused and the neighbors happy. That means sets start earlier and the action is packed from gates-open to last note. Past headliners include Metallica, The Killers, Stevie Wonder, P!NK, Bruno Mars, and dozens of other A-listers. The 2027 lineup will be announced closer to the festival, with renewal presales typically opening months in advance through Front Gate Tickets.
