A HUGE thank you to all our sponsors who help make Rockin' Robbins possible – we couldn't do it without you!
Since 2016, Rockin' Robbins has grown from a tiny speck of an idea to a wildly successful community event that has raised over $150,000 dollars for the revitalization of our beautiful Robbins Island Regional Park. Even more important, this free summer concert series has brought our community together in ways we could have never imagined. We are so proud. Thank you, Willmar! See you again in 2020!

All previous attendance records are now officially shattered! Willmar PD estimated there were close to 8,000 people at last night's Eagles Tribute with the Fabulous Armadillos and Collective Unconscious. Our Opening Act, Walter's Wheelhouse also pulled in a record-breaking crowd for the 5 PM show.

Yes, band for next year, Hicktown Mafia of Belview, Mn. and Fab Flippers, a 60s band with horns, great guitars, and all 60s and 70s stuff. Both bands "Rock"
Was there from start to finish. Eagles fan since way back. Fun night and I'm 70 years young. Still Rockin.
Suggestion : a band that plays some rock .
White Sidewalls would be a good band to have.
Suggestion: Band that plays 60’s music
Fantastic eve, wonderful band, wonderful weather & wonderful group of people who are responsible for getting this all together- Thank you!
Here's one more for your files.

The weather could not have been more perfect for Week 3 of Rockin' Robbins 2019! Michael Shynes wowed the crowd early... and HEY... how about that national anthem by Hitchville?? Wowzers!
Thanks again to our Opening Act sponsor, Kensington Bank, and our Presenting Sponsor, Schwieters Chevrolet of Willmar. Pictures from last night's concert are now available on our website at www.RockinRobbins.com/photos. Kudos to our talented Rockin' Robbins photographer, Dennis Benson.

So... you say you're not a country fan?? We guarantee you will be after tonight! Hitchville is a BIG DEAL and we're grateful to our Presenting Sponsor, Schwieters Chevrolet of Willmar for helping us bring them to our Rockin' Robbins stage.
Not only that, our opening act, Michael Shynes is a headliner in his own right, so make sure you come early to catch this amazing double-header! Special thanks to tonight's Opening Act sponsor, Kensington Bank.
Now, go dust off your boots and put your cowboy hats on straight! We'll see you tonight at Rockin' Robbins - Hitchville!
Great music tonite! Super talent from all artists!
I Really Enjoyed Hitchville!
It was a nice evening out at the “island” !
Two quick things! First, the ad that ran in Tuesday's West Central Tribune was incorrect. The July 30th concert will feature Rockin' Robbins - Hitchville, and Michael Shynes as the Opening Act. The Eagles Tribute takes place the following week, on Tuesday, August 6th.
Also, we've noticed a few yard signs still lingering around that say "Concert Tonight!" If you have a Rockin' Robbins yard sign in front of your business, please make sure to take it down Tuesday night or first thing Wednesday morning.
Thanks everybody! See you next Tuesday at Robbins Island!
Do not miss Michael Shynes! He is from Little Falls, Mn and has made it big in Poland with a platinum record there. He is on his way to making it big in America also.
Someone must have taken our sign as it’s gone??
