The Rock ‘n Roll Fantasy Camp™ is hitting the road! On Sunday, September 10th, Rock ‘n Roll Fantasy Camp One Day Only pulls into Columbus, Ohio for a once in a lifetime opportunity! You will be the opening act for Def Leppard and Journey in front of your friends, family, and a few thousand screaming fans!
The Rock ‘n Roll Fantasy Camp is the legendary, once-in-a-lifetime experience that David Fishof created in 1997. The camp has seen such rock luminaries as Roger Daltrey, Jon Anderson, Dickey Betts, Mickey Hart, George Thorogood, and Neil Schon make our campers rock dreams come true, as they learn from and jam with the world’s greatest celebrity rock musicians. The camp culminates in a celebrity-judged Battle of the Bands, where each camper band competes for the coveted Gold Record Award.
