What’s it all about?

For one incredible day, our town transforms into a buzzing, music-filled playground packed with live bands, big energy, family fun, and that unbeatable community spirit that makes Pickering… well, Pickering ❤️

Pickering Rocks isn’t just an event – it’s a full-on celebration of music and community:

🎤 Open mic nights showcasing local talent

🎸 A huge FREE main event in the Market Place

🎡 Kids rides, family fun, and smiles everywhere

🍻 Live music spilling into pubs across town into the night

👉 And the best bit? It’s completely FREE for everyone to enjoy

Why we need your help

Here’s the honest bit…

Putting on Pickering Rocks costs serious money – over £15,000 last year alone. And we do it because we believe our town deserves something special.

This festival only happens because of:

Local businesses

Community fundraising

And legends like YOU

Why it matters

Pickering Rocks brings the whole community together – visitors into the town, opportunities for local musicians and a proper feel-good weekend you’ll talk about all year.

It’s music, laughter, and memories rolled into one. 

Even the price of a pint 🍺 can help keep the music playing. Please consider donating to help make the festival continue for years to come.

Every single contribution, whether it is large or small, directly supports and fuels the realisation of Pickering Rocks, helping to make the event truly successful and memorable.

Let’s make sure Pickering really does rock this year 🎸
