The third annual Orlando Girls Rock Fest is back this week to ensure local rock thrives. The daylong music showcase spotlights the members, volunteers and community who make Orlando Girls Rock Camp what it is: a space for local artists to instruct girls, nonbinary and trans youth about all things music.

It’s a can’t-miss showcase of the long hours and passion that go into uplifting our local youth, Orlando’s arts scene and the next generation of rockers. Live performances come courtesy of bands formed within the camp and other area talents, like Boston Marriage, Cat Nap, The Dropdeads, Holly Pocket, Misspel, The Mystic, M.A.C.E., Real Teen Suicide, Pinko Beats, Please Be Kind, Tiger54, Trashworld and more.

2 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 27, Will’s Pub, 1042 N. Mills Ave., willspub.org, $15-$30.
