Update 10 January: still have not seen any info about an upcoming Rock It, and end of summer is nearing quickly…!
There will not be a Rock-iT Music Festival held at the end of this year (2006), and it is not clear when the next one will be.
Heatseeker have provided the following information today:
Heatseeker talked to the promoters for the show and they tell us that unfortunately there won’t be a Rock-it happening before Christmas. They explained that they want to keep things fresh and make sure that Rock-It just keeps on getting better for you guys, the artists and the staff. The guys and gals in their office have also been working on overdrive for the past year and they’re looking forward to being able to get some sleep and remind their friends and families that they still exist. We’re look forward to finally seeing them at a Christmas BBQ or two and hearing all about the line-up for next year’s Rock-It.
Arena Joondalup provided the following information in September:
The next edition of Rock iT will be taking place during the summer of 2007. With a feast of events occurring later this year, we are sure you’ll be happy to finish off the summer with WA’s largest locally grown music festival.
So I guess it’s just a case of wait and see, but it sounds like it might be in February or March 2007… :D

Ive heard rumours that red hot chili peppers might b a surprise act it would be awesome but i doubt it will actually happen.
Well, that would be a surprise… I doubt it, to be honest, but you really never know….
I’ve just updated the post above, haven’t seen any info anywhere yet…

Hey peoples….
Did you see my edit or new post? No rockit again, but Blackjack instead, with Pixies, Gnarls Barkley, Eskimo Joe and The Living End, Thursday 5 April (day before Easter friday)
By the way, Pete, Gyroscope are playing a free gig at McCallum Park on 25 feb (it’s part of the WAMI festival)
and Wolfmother will be at the West Coast Blues n Roots (a bit out of place, but I don’t mind!), and the Foo Fighers should be coming back to Australia sometime this year I reckon…
wolf mother r no longer together and havnt been for a while… this is a joke having the living end even in the line up, they were already at roller coaster and and BDO, we dont need them there, get some acts no 1 has sen for a while, sick of this australia crap
ehhh, this is an old article. New rock it info is here:

I was at Rockit yesterday 2009 . As much as I enjoyed the bands ,THE MUSIC the most… But what ruined the day was NO SHADE AVAILABLE !!!!!!!!
We pay top dollar for tickets . We queue in mile length lines to enter , to buy a drink and even to get a small strip of shade from a fence ,depending on the sun.
We have to obey all their rules and regulations and treated like sheep .
We cant take any shade of our own in like umbrellas as they may be used as weapons . Fair enough…I understand that .
BUT BUT BUT…What about the DUTY OF CARE responsibility of the organizers .
Alcohol gets o a lot of duty of care , under a huge tent that us as sheep must quickly enter and exit .
Thousands are packed into the venue and thousands is profited from the venue .
If you agree with me stand up for our rights .Ive called local council ..and writing letters. The more who do the same the more they might listen. We need CHANGE !
This complaint includes other outdoor music festivals but Rockit is the worst perpitrator that Ive endured.
Is there going to be a Rock It in 2010?
might be, nothing announced yet.
Does anyone know when it will be announced?
