Moonstock Concerts

About Moonstock 2021

Congratulations on weathering the COVID storm. We know it hasn't been easy and we also know that it isn't really "over" yet. But based on current local conditions and the latest science on how to live safely with COVID in the neighborhood, we have concluded that we can safely reinstate the concert series with a few important changes.

We want to do this safely, and we want to give the artists adequate time to prepare after many have had to suspend practices for many months.

So...

Our series will begin in late May or early June, and will run through August. We have been in touch with the band leaders from past seasons, and a few new ones, and are currently working to establish a schedule. Expect a few changes in the way things happen (more distance, people who are not fully vaccinated wearing masks, BYO refreshments, rescheduling rainy day performances instead of moving indoors, etc.) but expect a super, outdoor set of concerts.

(People are saying that Moonstock is the best venue for live local music in the greater Waddle metropolitan area.)

After all, music has healing, soothing properties, our venue is among the safest of places to offer live music, and many of the local artists and many of our audience members are longing for a chance to feel right again. It's on.

Looking forward to seeing you again

About Our Summer Concerts

Phot of people sitting on a fied watching a concert on the outdoor stage.

Come Join Us!

Our home at 211 Moondance Lane is only about 15 minutes from downtown State College. Don't be misled by the Port Matilda address.

For guests with mobility issues, we can reserve parking. We have modified the road down to the stage, so on nights with outdoor concerts we can allow a few cars to drive down, drop passengers, and park on the edge of the woods. Call Kyle at 814-404-1313 to make arrangements for people with mobility issues.

The Basic Info

Outdoor House Concerts - (We will no longer move inside if weather looks bad. We'll reschedule instead.)
Fun people and their friends and families (who are almost always fun people, too), and well behaved dogs (on a leash).
Consider bringing a folding chair or blanket (optional), wear comfortable shoes, and be prepared to walk a bit, as the driveway gets crowded and the concerts are held in a field behind the house which is on a hilltop.

If it's raining or threatening to rain...

We will need to reschedule, as it's no longer safe to move the concerts indoors.

TURN RIGHT ON STEVENSON ROAD, which is almost at the bottom of the hill.
Take Stevenson Road, through the tiny community of "Waddle," until it ends in a "T" intersection with "Buffalo Run Road" (also known as route 550).

The road branches twice.
