In September 2015, Rock the Block brought together over 4000 members of the Longwood community with the Town of Farmville, local businesses and area residents. Participants enjoyed a night of great music, outstanding food, and exciting novelties while being introduced to the fantastic products and services available to them by our local vendors as well as an Open Mic Night at the Crute Stage. Due to the overwhelming success of this event, Longwood University and the Town of Farmville plan to host this event again on Friday, September 16th at Longwood Landings at Midtown Square. We are also excited to announce that Rock the Block will again be held on the opening night of Longwood's Family Weekend. New this year…. your sponsorship will be expanded to include Family Weekend which attracts 700-1000 people to Longwood’s campus on Saturday and Sunday.
