Rock al Parque is a free outdoor music festival held in Bogotá, Colombia’s capital. It began in 1995 and has grown into one of Latin America’s largest public music events, with performances ranging from rock and metal to punk, ska and alternative music.
The festival is organised with support from Bogotá’s cultural authorities and takes place in Parque Metropolitano Simón Bolívar, a major city park. Its programme typically combines well-known international performers with artists from Colombia and elsewhere in Latin America.
For local musicians, the festival also provides a prominent public platform: some Bogotá acts are selected through a district programme. The event draws large crowds and forms part of the city’s wider effort to make cultural events accessible without an admission charge.
