The Rochester Mural Festival is an annual week long event that sees the eight (8) mural boards in Mural Park stripped clear so new murals can be painted. Each year a theme is given to the artists and their mural must link to the theme.

2025 theme is 'Life, Love and Music.'

Prizes are awarded at a community event at the end of the week.

An art exhibition in the Old Court House is also a must see while you are in town and be sure to check out the Rochybalds!

Rochester Mural Festival runs from Saturday 29 March to Saturday 5 April 2025
