Rosecliff will be in full bloom this June, and sta Rosecliff will be in full bloom this June, and starting Friday, April 4, flower lovers can secure their tickets for one of the country’s most celebrated floral showcases. The 29th annual @newport.mansions Newport Flower Show returns June 20-22, transforming the historic Gilded Age mansion into a garden lover’s paradise. Presented by the Preservation Society of Newport County, the three-day event will feature a colorful array of floral designs, botanical arts and horticultural specimens set against the elegant backdrop of the famed Bellevue Avenue estate. This year’s theme, “A Floral Fair,” pays tribute to Rosecliff’s original resident, Theresa Fair Oelrichs. Drawing inspiration from her whimsical 1913 fairy tale-themed dinner, the show will blend Gilded Age glamour with the nostalgic charm of a summer county fair. Expect floral installations that evoke prize-winning blooms, carousel horses, teddy bears and even a floral interpretation of a roller coaster. A highlight of the show will be the oceanside garden display on the mansion’s back lawn. Centered around sculptural works by artist David Harber, the installation will take cues from the White City of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Surrounding the gardens, the Flower Show Marketplace will host over 40 vendors and sponsors, offering everything from plants and garden décor to specialty gifts. Tickets must be purchased in advance and are valid for specific morning or afternoon time slots. A limited number of tickets are also available for the Opening Night Party on Friday, June 20, which includes cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and live music on the lawn.

Country Star Luke Combs Set to Make Newport Folk F Country Star Luke Combs Set to Make Newport Folk Fest Debut This Summer @lukecombs is trading stadiums for seaside this summer, bringing his gravel-worn voice and heartland soul to the 2025 @newportfolkfest on Saturday, July 26th. It’s a rare and intimate booking for the country heavyweight—and a full-circle moment for a fanbase that’s watched his genre-defying star rise like a storm. Combs has been riding a high ever since his tender, stripped-down cover of Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” became a runaway hit. The track surged to over 65 million Spotify streams in under two months, eventually peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100—eclipsing Chapman’s original chart run and earning him Single of the Year at the 2023 CMA Awards. A Grammy duet with Chapman in early 2024 sealed the song’s place in the cultural canon. The North Carolina native has long cited “Fast Car” as his first musical love, a touchstone from his childhood. That reverence, paired with Combs’s raw authenticity, makes his upcoming Newport set one of the most anticipated performances of the festival. Expect an evening of stripped-back storytelling, rootsy nostalgia, and a reverence for the folk tradition—right where it all began. #lukecombs #newportfolkfest #newportri #newportbuzz
Just Announced: @lukasnelsonofficial Is Headed to Just Announced: @lukasnelsonofficial Is Headed to @newportfolkfest 2025 Lukas Nelson is set to hit the stage at the 2025 Newport Folk Festival on Saturday, July 26th — and if history is any indicator, it’s going to be a set you won’t want to miss. The frontman of Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real has carved out a sound that straddles the line between cosmic country and ragged rock ‘n’ roll, drawing on rootsy traditions while never feeling stuck in the past. Whether he’s performing with his band or flying solo, Nelson brings the kind of soul-stirring energy that feels tailor-made for Newport’s storied stages. You may recognize his name from more than just the family tree — yes, he’s the son of country outlaw royalty Willie Nelson — but Lukas has long since stepped out of that shadow. He grabbed a Grammy for his work alongside Lady Gaga on the soundtrack to A Star Is Born, helping craft the songs that gave the film its emotional backbone. With Nelson now joining a growing 2025 lineup, Newport Folk is shaping up to be another unforgettable weekend of storytelling, surprises, and serious talent. Stay tuned. More artists are coming. #lukasnelson #newportfolkfest #newportri #newportbuzz
