Click Event Website link at the bottom of the page] \nRose Arts Festival of Norwich returns June 25 through 27\, bringing three days of live music\, art\, food trucks\, local vendors\, and downtown energy to Norwich. What began as a community arts celebration has grown into one of the region’s signature summer festivals\, filling city streets\, bars\, breweries\, and outdoor spaces with performances and crowds all weekend long. From daytime concerts on Chelsea Parade to late-night sets echoing through downtown venues\, the festival creates the kind of atmosphere that turns Norwich into a full-on summer destination. \nRose Arts Festival of Norwich mixes big-stage performances with a strong local and regional creative spirit.

Saturday’s main stage lineup on Chelsea Parade features nationally touring jam\, indie\, and alternative acts including Mihali\, Neighbor\, Melt\, Oh He Dead\, The Wolff Sisters\, and Lazy Trail. After dark\, the city keeps going with performances spread across downtown venues including Strange Brew\, Harp & Dragon\, Billy Wilson’s\, These Guys Brewing\, and Reliance Health Gallery.
