About Wrockstock

 

Wrockstock is a fan-run Wizard Rock event that showcases the best bands in Wizard Rock as well as bringing Harry Potter fans together to enjoy each other’s company in a relaxed, private setting.

The first time we did it, we called it Wrockstock Spooktacular as it occurred the weekend before Halloween 2007.
We did it again 7 months later over Memorial Day weekend and called it Wrockstock 2008. This time around, we're going back to the autumn season and calling it Wrockstock the Third.

Our goal is raise funds for the needy as we also raise awareness thru music, our love of Harry Potter, the friendships we form, the amazing power of nature and lots of fun. Most attendees and bands say that Wrockstock is the best time they ever had, and we hope you'll feel that way too!
Everyone agrees that there is real magic created and felt during Wrockstock.

Draco and the Malfoys


We feel that if people’s hearts and minds are open, their capacity for happiness and desire to do good in the world increases exponentially. At Wrockstock we like to take that a step further and help show everyone who attends the value of friendship and the need to do what’s right, as shown by Harry and his friends throughout the series. Just about everyone who has attended Wrockstock said they felt that their hearts and minds had been renewed, awakened and were ready to fight evil wherever they found it when they returned home.

Our location will again be YMCA Trout Lodge in Potosi, MO. No one can deny that a huge part of the success of Wrockstock is the amazing location and service that Trout Lodge provides. A magical place unto itself, Trout Lodge has a long history of providing the opportunity for growth and fellowship for the young people of Missouri and it’s surrounding states. No place else on earth is like it. All the natural beauty that the state of Missouri has to offer can be found and enjoyed here… just a 90 minute drive from St Louis.

Trout Lodge


Trout Lodge has a lot of things in common with Hogwarts; the lake and surrounding mountains come to mind, as well as having a great big dining hall where everyone eats together since all your meals are included in your room cost.

There are dozens of activities included in your room and ticket price. There’s miles of hiking trails, the stables, the boathouse, bicycles you can borrow for the day. Or if you prefer, you can sit by any number of fireplaces in the Lodge's many lounge areas all day with a good book, check your email on your laptop with free wi-fi or challenge your roommates to a round of miniature golf.

As always, you never know when your favorite wizard rocker or even a friendly stranger will sit down at your table to share a meal with you. We all spend the entire weekend hanging out and having fun together as a family... it's impossible to be lonely at Wrockstock!

The Great Hall


We feel that the weapon we have is love and we are not scared to wield it. The money we raise goes directly into funding programs to help better the lives of the less fortunate around the world. Wrockstock is also a great way to make new friends or reconnect with old ones.

We have attendees from all across the United States and even the world. We've had people from out of the country at every Wrockstock and we welcome our friends from beyond our shores and from our own backyard. Our staff will do everything we can to make everyone's trip easy and safe.

We're also really into group hugs. We close the event every year will everyone in attendance joining in a massive group hug. It's unlike anything you've ever experienced.
