Come Together!

Come Together at Dinner on the Dock! The backdrop of the scenic Rock River & downtown Rockford creates a unique and vivacious gathering where Rockford comes together to enjoy the region’s best musical acts. DOD is THE event of the summer for the Rockford metro area and we couldn’t be more excited about the 2024 season. See you there!

The 2024 Dinner on the Dock Music Series is presented by Prairie Street Brewing Co. This event offers guests great food, locally brewed craft beer, and locally and nationally recognized musical acts! Come by car or boat and relax on the dock with us every Thursday night in beautiful downtown Rockford.

Kicking off our 2024 Dinner on the Dock lineup is Three Good Men! Three Good Men specializing in great dance music that is popular with all ages and audiences. At every performance you’re likely to hear classic songs spanning several decades of music.
