Dawn and On Music Festival

[All communication and inquiries should be directed to: lonesomedrivermusic@hotmail.com]

You are cordially invited to the 7th Annual Dawn And On Music Festival, an annual celebration of music, family and fun. For 2023, we are thrilled to return to beautiful Schwiebert Park in Rock Island, IL.

Founded in 2015, Dawn and On is a family-friendly, homegrown music festival featuring the area’s best local and regional talent. From rock to jam to bluegrass, you’ll find all of our bands highly danceable and indescribably fun. Our goal is to bring all the magic of the multi-day music festival and condense into one highly affordable day right in your own backyard. In addition to the live music, DAO brings in some of the area’s most talented arts and craft vendors, a variety of delicious food and snacks, premium craft beer and a few surprises along the way. So grab your lawn chairs, hula hoops and fanny packs and take in the DAO experience for yourself. Trust us, you’ll be glad you did.
