Rock-n-Romp Halloween Extravaganza

Rock-n-Romp returns with Halloween show Oct. 28 at the Ravine

Family friendly concert to feature costume contest, arts and craft activity for kids

Rock-n-Romp, the popular family friendly concert series, is back with a special Halloween extravaganza from 1 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 28 at the Ravine, 571 Marshall Ave., in the Memphis Medical District.

Bands include KittyPool, Above Jupiter and Tamar Love (from Mama Honey). The show is  sponsored by the Downtown Memphis Commission and Memphis Made Brewing and produced by Live From Memphis. Food trucks will include Fuel, Mempops, and others.

Cost is $5 per adult. Children are admitted free of charge. Adults must have a child with them to attend.

“Rock-n-Romp took a break during the pandemic, but people never stopped asking, ‘What happened to Rock-n-Romp?,’ ” said board member Graham Burks. “A group of us started talking and we thought, ‘We gotta bring this back!’ ” 

The group of planners ultimately decided to pay tribute to Memphis Rock-n-Romp’s past by the bands they asked to play the show. Two of the bands playing the show are made up of people who started playing music as kids at the Rock-n-Romp Rock summer camp 10+ years ago.

“When Mati was a baby, we took her to one of those classic Rock-n-Romps at Mud Island, but she doesn’t remember,” said Live From Memphis co-founder Christopher Reyes. “She and her sister are now at the perfect age to really appreciate it, so for me, it made a lot of sense to bring it back. Once we started planning, we were all like, ‘Hell yeah,’ and everyone we told about it pretty much had the same response.”

The Art Project will lead a Halloween arts and crafts activity for the kids, and there will be a Halloween costume contest with prizes awarded in categories such as best costume and most original.
