Rockfest is an outdoor, hard rock music festival held annually at the Liberty Memorial by Kansas City radio station KQRC-FM 98.9 the Rock since 1992 [1][unreliable source?]. As of 2010, it was considered to be North America's largest one-day music festival.[1] Major bands such as Godsmack, Staind, Seether, Stone Temple Pilots, Korn and Alice in Chains have all headlined Rockfest.[2][unreliable source?] The large size and rain or shine ethos of the concert has led to community disputes regarding its continuation.[2]

In 2017, it was announced 2017's Rockfest would be held at The Kansas City Speedway instead of Liberty Memorial. No reason was given for this relocation.
