Napa, CA (May 16, 2022) – JaM Cellars, makers of easy-to-love wines including Butter Chardonnay—one of the most popular chardonnays in the U.S.—announces its return as Presenting Sponsor of BottleRock Napa Valley for the sixth year. BottleRock has become known for world-class food and wine within the setting of a world-class music festival. This year’s event will once again take place over Memorial Day weekend in downtown Napa, CA, after being rescheduled to Labor Day weekend last year. This year’s headlining artists on the JaM Cellars main stage feature Metallica, P!nk and Twenty One Pilots, with additional performances throughout the weekend from renowned artists including Luke Combs, The Black Crowes, Kygo, and more.
“In our six years as Presenting Sponsor, BottleRock has hosted iconic artists including Foo Fighters, Bruno Mars, The Killers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and many, many other world-class bands on the JaM Cellars stage. Our wines Butter Chardonnay and JaM Cabernet have been poured alongside gourmet foods, celebrity chefs and talented musicians. Plus, we’ve brought festival-goers closer to the music at our acoustic lounge and stage the JaMPad, which is a crowd favorite,” said John Truchard, Founder and CEO of JaM Cellars. “Our commitment to music, hospitality and memorable experiences as a backdrop for our easy-to-love wines works so well at BottleRock, and the festival has become one of the most important weekends in the JaM Cellars calendar. We’re very glad to be back on Memorial Day weekend this year so that BottleRockers can enjoy our wines as their first sip of summer once again.”
As Presenting Sponsor, JaM Cellars offers festival-goers the chance to sip, savor, and enjoy their full line-up of easy-to-love wines. Butter Chardonnay and JaM Cabernet can be found throughout the festival grounds at every bar concession, and Toast Sparkling and Sugar Sweet White are exclusively available at the JaM Cellars’ JaMPad acoustic stage and lounge. For the first time ever, BottleRock attendees will also have the chance to sip on the newest additions to the Butter lineup, Butter Cab and Butter Bubbles, exclusively available in the JaM Cellars Butter Cab-ana —a rock-star photo booth experience also new for this year.
In addition to enjoying headliners at the JaM Cellars main stage, attendees will have the opportunity to sip and JaM at two activations this year hosted by JaM Cellars. The JaMPad, the festival’s fifth stage located to the north of the JaM Cellars main stage green, is the place to be in GA to get up close and personal with your favorite musicians. All weekend long JaM Cellars will host unplugged artist JaMSessions with special guest Jana Sutter, an iHeartRadio host and music director.
