Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy Camp returns to the iconic Sunset Strip in Hollywood, California, from November 12-15, 2026. This immersive four-day event features a powerhouse lineup of headliners, including Michael Anthony (Van Halen), Warren DeMartini (RATT), Brad Gillis (Night Ranger), and Kenny Aronoff, offering participants a unique blend of professional mentorship and live performance.
Designed for musicians and vocalists of all ages and skill levels, the camp provides a supportive, judgment-free environment. Participants will attend intimate masterclasses, engage in Q&A sessions, and rehearse in bands mentored by elite touring professionals such as Vinny Appice and Monte Pittman. To ensure a rewarding experience, every camper undergoes a musical evaluation to be placed in a band with peers of similar ability.
The 2026 session specifically celebrates the 40th anniversary of Van Halen's 5150 and RATT's Dancing Undercover. Campers will master 1980s classics like Panama, Round and Round, and Sister Christian, culminating in live performances at two of Hollywood's most legendary venues: the Whisky A Go Go and the Viper Room.
Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy Camp has cultivated a remarkably diverse community. Over 40% of participants are women, and alumni include a wide range of professionals, from tech pioneers and doctors to government leaders. Founder David Fishof emphasizes that the program is about more than just music; it is about building confidence, forging lifelong friendships, and fulfilling lifelong dreams.
Whether you are a hobbyist or a professional musician, this camp offers the rare chance to share the stage with rock royalty. Limited spots are available for this exclusive event. Interested musicians can register at www.rockcamp.com.
