What if you could go to one single place that offered four stages of free music, a fine artist promenade, a kids’ area, a conscious living showcase, a gourmet food, jazz, and wine marketplace, and plenty of delicious food and libation?

We’ve just described the Bank of the Cascades Bend Summer Festival, which makes its 23rd annual appearance beginning Friday, July 12th and running through Sunday, July 14th.

One of the four stages mentioned above is the KPOV Locals-Only Stage (located in the Wells Fargo parking lot), which will host some of the the best regional and local musical talents on Saturday and Sunday. And that’s where Connecting Point comes in.

RelyLocal-Bend will be providing Co-Sponsorship support via its participating members (including, for the very first time, Connecting Point Computer Centers) for the KPOV Locals-Only Stage musicians (through C3 Events), who will play beginning at 11am Saturday morning. See the complete details about the festival, including all the music on all four stages, here.

Enjoying 23 years of success, the Bank of Cascades Bend Summer Festival draws 75,000 visitors for a weekend like no other. Festival features fine artists and craftspeople, artisans and performers, and four stages of some of the best regional and national blues, rock and jazz.
