“We're grooving! Nothing like roots reggae music! Now turn it up, I wanna lose it!” - Rebelution Buy tickets here!

California Roots Music and Arts Festival has always been rooted in a genuine enthusiasm for an experience that stimulates all senses through a release of creativity that can be heard, felt, seen, and embodied.  For over a decade, people have traveled far and wide to engage with the magic that is Cali Roots, with a simple desire to celebrate incredible live music with people we love.

To date we have diverted over 600,000 single use plastic cups and bottles through our Steel Pint & REVERB's Rock n' Refill Programs, sold over 50,000 multi-use steel pint cups and Nalgene bottles, offset over 17 million pounds of carbon with TripZero, and parked almost 5,000 skateboards & bikes at our free, onsite Bike & Skate Valet.  As a result of our dedication to the environment, in 2020, we became the first certified green event in the State of California!
