Northside Rock n' Roll Carnival

By Hannah Cook for CityBeat

Beer connoisseurs and music lovers (though the two usually come hand in hand), may you rejoice under the same sunny sky! The Northside area is proud to present its annual Rock n’ Roll Carnival held at Jacob Hoffner Park, featuring loads of local and regional beer, food and music — all for free. With the support from the lovely Cincinnati community, the carnival has grown into one heck of an event.

This year, Nashville natives Pujol (whose latest release, United States of Being, was produced by Jack White), along with New York City’s The Big Sleep will headline the music festivities with support from some of Cincinnati’s finest, including The Tillers, You, You’re Awesome, Eclipse and way more. Not only will there be superb live music, but you may be lucky enough to catch some fire breathers, sword swallowers and a Burlesque performance. Consider it our city’s own little Bonnaroo.

INFO: Free. Tuesday July 3. Jacob Hoffner Park. 4104 Hamilton Ave., Northside. northsiderocks.com .
