Desert Rocks

Thursday, June 7th, 2012 - Sunday, June 10th, 2012

 

The Desert Rocks 2012 new partnership is using the festival platform to showcase and celebrate a higher state of consciousness by booking/hosting socially responsible bands, speakers, DJ’s, performers, venders, artists, workshops, and films that have a positive message related to the cultural transformation ideology surrounding 2012. We are also active in creating positive social change through our promotions and personal actions.

 

Our goal is to promote the global shift towards environmental sustainability, fair trade, human rights, complimentary currency, trade/barter, healthy lifestyle, organic farming, biodiversity, renewable energy, social responsibility, recycle/reduce/reuse ideology, cultural awareness, healthy diet, spread of wealth, sharing, caring, and LOVE!

 

In order to improve the festival experience and increase environmental sustainability, the Desert Rocks Music Festival´s 2012 theme is "Celebrating Consciousness".  This theme will be supported through conscious music, workshops, speakers, artists, performers, and films whereby it allows celebration of the mind, body, & spirit while having a kick-ass time!

 

With the theme of Celebrating Consciousness, the festival becomes the platform for promoting the global shift by focusing on the following sub goals:  encouraging healthy lifestyles, creating social responsibility within our communities, and encouraging cultural awareness.

 

The festival happens June 7 - 10 in Green River, Utah.
