4th Annual Great Swamp Great Music Festival

It’s time to reacquaint yourself with fresh air and live music. We’ve brought back fan-favorites and a few new faces for 5 hours of continuous entertainment! Bring your own blankets and chairs and spread out on the sprawling, tree-lined lawn of Giralda Farms in Chatham Twp. You are welcome to bring along your own pop-ups and/or umbrellas, but you MUST secure them in place in case of wind. As always, a great selection of food and adult beverages will be available for purchase and you can browse the unique merchandise from our vendors.
