John Anderson, Darryl Worley and Vince Neil will be the featured performers at the 27th Annual Portfest "Rollin' on the River" Festival June 6-7, 2008, at Jacksonport State Park. The park, nestled alongside the beautiful White River, provides the setting for country music entertainment on Friday night and rock music on Saturday night.

The park opens at 4 p.m. Friday and at noon on Saturday. Admission prices for Friday are $15.00 in advance and $20.00 at the gate. Saturday ticket prices are $7.00 in advance or at the gate until 4 p.m. After 4 p.m. ticket prices increase to $20.00. If you are already in the park there is no increase for staying and enjoying the night concert.

Family and children's activities begin at noon Saturday. There is music and entertainment on the Pavilion Stage all afternoon. Children's activities are scattered throughout the park. A large fireworks show closes Portfest after the conclusion of the Vince Neil concert.

Miller Attractions has a carnival set up just outside the gates of Portfest (not included in the admission price).
