About Rock the Bells
Rock the Bells is an anual hip-hop festival that originally began in South California but has become more of a touring summer festival series. Headlined by Wu-Tang Clan, the first Rock the Bells took place in 2004 in San Bernardino, CA. The festival features a combination of mainstream artists, up-n-comers and legends of the hip-hop genre.
