Monster Energy’s Fort Rock–Southwest Florida’s biggest rock festival–took Fort Myers by storm last weekend, selling out its second year with 12,500 fans attending the Saturday, April 26 rock festival at JetBlue Park in Fort Myers, Florida.
The festival’s stellar rock lineup featured co-headlining superstars Korn, Rob Zombie, and Five Finger Death Punch, as well as Seether, Black Stone Cherry, Trivium and many others.
In a review of Monster Energy’s Fort Rock titled “Hard Rock Show A Sellout Success At JetBlue,” Dave Osborn of the Naples Daily News said, “The show was golden because it sold out…a 53% increase from last year’s crowd…(April 28, 2014).
“With such a demand for rock music in Southwest Florida, you never know what could happen next year…We might even expand to two days!” says producer Danny Wimmer of Danny Wimmer Presents.
Monster Energy’s Fort Rock is part of the World’s Loudest Month festival series. The World’s Loudest Month was created in partnership by Danny Wimmer Presents and AEG Live and features the biggest names in rock music performing in six distinct concert atmospheres across the country on five consecutive weekends.
JetBlue Park is the spring training home of the 2013 World Champion Boston Red Sox, located at 11500 Fenway South Drive in Fort Myers, Florida.
Monster Energy’s Fort Rock is proud to be sponsored by Monster Energy, Jack Daniel’s, Jägermeister, and f.y.e.
