The sixth-annual fest spent five years at JetBlue Park in south Fort Myers, but organizers announced last month that it's moving to Markham Park in Sunrise for 2018. The move prompted an outcry on social media, but organizers said the fest’s new home will make the event bigger and better.

Clay Busch, Vice President of Marketing and Sponsorship for festival co-producers Danny Wimmer Presents said: “Monster Energy Fort Rock is moving to its new home at Markham Park in Sunrise / Fort Lauderdale for its sixth year, as the site provides a larger space and room to grow, which will allow us to provide attendees with a bigger Fort Rock experience. We truly appreciate the support shown by Fort Rockers over the past five years, and encourage fans in the Fort Myers / Naples area to join us again in 2018 just across ‘Alligator Alley’”.

“Heavy metal music is loved the world over”, says John Valentino, Senior Vice President, AEG Presents Southeast. “Its appeal is global and it has no boundaries. We welcome fans of all cultures to come rock with us in Fort Rock’s new home at Markham Park”.

Noelle Stevenson, Vice President, Film, Music, Entertainment & Creative Industries for the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention and Visitors Bureau said: “We are thrilled to welcome Fort Rock to Broward County, FL. We look forward to our long term partnership with the festival as part of our Hello Sunny’s Underground Music program”. Click here for more information on Hello Sunny.

The fest takes place on Saturday and Sunday, April 28-29. Single day tickets are $75 ($175 for VIP). Weekend tickets are $99.50 ($299 for VIP). All ticket prices exclude applicable taxes and fees, and are subject to change.
