Livestream Tickets Are Now Available

Livestream Tickets are now on sale at StageIt.com/ProgStock

You can now purchase tickets for each mainstage show on StageIt.com

The individual performances on StageIt are separate shows. Audience members will purchase a ticket to each performance individually, not the whole day as a block.

StageIt is all about experiencing music in the moment, duplicating the live music experience as closely as possible. You have to be there to see it, just like you would in a venue, so shows are only available during the performance window. No replays.

Details for StageIt:

Shows will be presented on StageIt. To participate, you must have a StageIt account. If you don’t yet have an account, here’s what to do:

  • Go to Stageit.com
  • Click Sign Up (upper right corner)
  • Create a username and password
  • Click “Buy Notes” (10 notes = $1) – The StageIt system sells Notes in minimum intervals of $5 (50 Notes).
  • After choosing how many Notes you want to purchase, choose your payment type – it’ll be credit card or PayPal (with PayPal, you do not need to have an account, you can use a credit/debit card as a guest).

  • You will also be able to tip the artists before, during and after the shows with your Notes. Tipping is the way to applaud the artists during the show.

Annie Haslam of Renaissance Joins Our Art Gallery

The woman whose crystal clear, high-flying soprano vocals earned her worldwide attention as the lead singer of the English classical rock band Renaissance has achieved an entirely new level of appreciation as an Intuitive Abstract Expressionist.

On canvas, Annie Haslam’s unmistakable world of sound is taken into unique vistas of color and vibration, not unlike the flow of her five-octave voice. Transporting the viewer to other worlds and through inner boundaries. It is her goal, to bring healing, serenity and peace through her work.

As well as painting on canvas she paints musical instruments and has a form of synesthesia where she can paint songs by tuning into the person who is commissioning, where she gathers what they feel about the song and what it does to them…

Become a 5-Year Patron to Snag a Great Seat!

We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the seating at the Williams Center, so here’s the best way to answer those – the seat map! Those seats you see grayed out – those are our 5-year Patrons! Notice, not everyone chooses the front row.

There are still some really excellent seats available, and you have a week to snag one as a new 5-year Patron, which will reserve your seat for ProgStock 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027!

Why become a 5-year Patron?

  • You get to lock in that favorite seat, but now I’m repeating myself
  • You get to sneak into the lobby and check out the merch at least 30 minutes before everyone else
  • You get front-of-line access to the meet-and-greets
  • You get a really cool merch pack with items donated by our artists along with ProgStock merch (some exclusive to our Patrons, including a special lanyard just like the one worn by our artists and staff)
  • You get free passes to any livestream we offer in between festivals
  • Occasionally, ProgStock alumni offer incentives to our Patrons for shows at other venues or on new music releases
  • You get to help us keep this incredible festival alive – Trust us, it’s an act of love, and every bit of help counts!
  • And because of that, you get our undying gratitude!

More to come!

A New Home!

After 6 years, ProgStock has a new home in 2023!

The Williams Center in Rutherford, NJ, a 101-year-old performing arts center in the heart of Rutherford, located at 15 Sylvan Street (aka 1 Williams Plaza), Rutherford, NJ 07070, will be the home of the ProgStock Festival in 2023 and (we hope) for many years to come!

We bid a fond farewell to our former home, the Union County Performing Arts Center in Rahway, NJ. We will especially miss her crew, but the time has come to make a fresh start!
