Boaters, music lovers, and summer seekers are invited to experience Rock the Dock on Saturday, August 16, 2025—and this year’s celebration promises to be bigger, bolder, and smoother than ever. This free summer music concert is set against the backdrop of Bremerton’s inlet and mountain views, with live music, local food trucks, and a beer garden poured by local brewery Dog Days Brewing, making it a can’t-miss highlight of the summer.
The music event will showcase a blend of rock, blues, and folk, echoing the soulful sounds the Bremerton music scene is known for. Featured performers include the beloved Manette local, Alessandra Rose, and Seattle’s Wild Rumours: A Fleetwood Mac Experience.
Guests are invited to arrive by land or water:
By personal boat: Fill the guest moorage boat slips at the Bremerton Marina, attendees can reserve their spot at https://www.portofbremerton.org/request-moorage
By public ferry: Bremerton is easily accessible from Seattle by two ferry options - the 1-hour car and passenger ferry from Colman Dock or the 30-minute walk-on fast ferry at Pier 50. Both options allow attendees to enjoy the beauty of the Puget Sound and Sinclair Inlet.
No matter how you show up, you’re encouraged to bring a lawn chair and settle in at the base of the Harborside Steps for an afternoon on the waterfront.
