Benefest 2018

The 7th Annual Benefest returns to Casa Nueva and The Union on November 29 - December 1.

Benefest is a 3-night musical showcase and fundraiser for Stuart’s Opera House After School Music Program and The Gathering Place. Each year students from Hocking College's Music Management program collaborate with area businesses and non-profits to coordinate over a dozen acts to perform at Athens, OH’s two most beloved music venues, Casa Nueva and The Union. The event is always a great time, and fantastic way for our students to work in music, within our community!

Proceeds raised from the event go to Stuarts Opera House Afterschool Music Program and The Gathering Place!. Please come out and support these great local programs.
Doors open at 9pm each night!
