Ladies and Gentlemen, BottleRock is upon us! Day one of the three-day festival kicks off TODAY and we've rounded up a few essentials not to be missed as well as a few friendly reminders on HOW TO BOTTLEROCK!

Game of Thrones may be over, but that doesn't mean the excited from the craze hit television series has to stop. Monkey Shoulder whiskey is hosting "Porta-Party," a speakeasy-ish activation at the fest.  The activation is one not to missed, it will even feature sets by six surprise DJs (hint: they’re are on the BottleRock lineup) — including a 45-minute dance session spun by Kristian Nairn, who played Hodor on “Game of Thrones.”

According to Datebook, “We wanted to mix up BottleRock with a party that no one could imagine or see coming,” said Monkey Shoulder ambassador Vance Henderson. “The Porta-Party is our cheeky way of showing that Monkey Shoulder is a whisky that breaks all of the supposed whisky rules and should be played with.”

A Special Performance:

New for 2019! After the final Williams Sonoma Culinary Stage performance on Sunday afternoon, there will be an entertaining evening performance by Alice Cooper and Andrew Zimmern who will be making a special Guinness World Record attempt! This special performance was designed and produced by the BottleRock team through their relationship with Cooper and Zimmern, and will happen at 7:30pm on the fifth stage, located in the culinary garden.

Nightly Silent Disco:

See Paul Oakenfold on Friday, White Panda with Kristian Nairn (Hodor from Game of Thrones) on Saturday and The Crystal Method on Sunday at the nightly Silent Disco, powered by Kaiser Permanente. Arrive at the Lagunitas Stage by 8pm to reserve your spot.
