It takes place in Simón Bolívar Park and draws a massive audience of rock enthusiasts, both national and international, making it the largest free outdoor festival in the continent and the third largest in the world.

First held in 1995, Rock al Parque has become a key platform for promoting both emerging and established bands across various rock genres, including metal, punk, ska, and fusion. The festival is renowned not only for the quality and diversity of its lineup but also for its commitment to inclusion and the promotion of musical culture in all its forms. During the festival days, attendees enjoy multiple stages featuring world-renowned artists alongside local talent. In recent years, artists such as Fito Páez, Babasónicos, Sodom, and Suffocation have performed at the festival.
