It’s SUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMEEEEERRRRRR! In New Jersey.
Terrie Carr here and I am proud to be a Jersey girl through and through.
Not only do we have awesome beaches and lakes to enjoy during the summer months, but we also rock the festivals and whatever you like to do (rock out, family time, beach rocking, rural rocking, comic rocking) New Jersey has something for you. I cover the state from north to south.
Love southern rock? We have you covered. Into farming? You’re included. Want a great place to take the kids where you can rock out too? Done. And of course we include the beach. Oh and if you aren’t an “outdoors” festival type, I didn’t forget you.
Here are 6 awesome festivals to check out this summer with something for everyone. And I even included one indoor “Fest” as well. Heck, not everyone loves the great outdoors!
You can purchase tickets for the festivals by clicking on the link provided too.

• Sea, Hear Now Festival

  Set in beautiful Asbury Park the weekend of September 16 -17, The Sea, Hear Now Festival is an awesome time providing killer music, the backdrop of the incredible Jersey shore (surfing encouraged) and an arts festival that is second to none.
  Well known bands like Foo Fighters, Beach Boys and The Killer share the stage with newcomers to the music world and the sense of community is unparalleled.
  The festival sells out quickly, but the wait list periodically releases tickets so good luck!
