Rock, Beer, and Vintage Culture by the Seine
The Rock'n Beer Festival was born from the passion of a group of rock and craft beer enthusiasts for vintage culture and the rebellious spirit of early rock'n'roll. Located at L'Escale, a performance venue in the town of Melun facing the Seine, the event transforms this 2,200-seat venue into a true temple of rock and beer every February.
The festival is hosted by Coco Das Vegas, a colorful master of ceremonies who embodies the event's quirky and festive spirit. His infectious energy sets the tone for a weekend where seriousness is banned in favor of shared enjoyment.
A Program of Concerts and Vintage Activities
The Rock'n Beer Festival offers a packed two-day program. Concerts are at the heart of the event, with rock, rockabilly, punk rock, and blues bands performing on the L'Escale stage. The 2025 edition notably featured One Rusty Band and Cora Lynn & the Rhythm Snatchers.
Alongside the music, the festival unfolds a complete universe dedicated to rock and vintage culture:
- Craft Breweries: about ten local and regional brewers offer their creations for tasting
- Vintage Market: vinyl records, CDs, clothing, accessories, collectibles
- Custom Garage: exhibition of customized motorcycles and American cars
- Barber & Tattoo: retro hairstyling sessions and tattoo demonstrations
- Street Food: burgers, hot dogs, and gourmet specialties
