WHAT TO BRING
The weather forecast for Rock-N-Q on the Planes looks phenomenal, with a high of 80 degrees on Friday and a high of 71 on Saturday. Dress in layers, as the outdoor venue is subject to breezy conditions and will cool off significantly after dark.
Don't forget to bring your lawn chairs or blankets for the concert area, as seating is not provided.
Coolers are permitted in the parking / camping areas but not inside the concert venue. NO GLASS is permitted anywhere on the premises. Because we are holding the event at a historic WWII airfield and the S.R.C.A. historic dragstrip, we want to preserve this gem in our community for years to come. No open flames are permitted anywhere on the premises.
If you do not plan to stay overnight in the RV camping area, please be sure to book lodging at one of the many friendly hotels and motels in the Great Bend area. Learn more on the Lodging page.
