In 2025, Newport Folk Festival expects 20% of attendees to arrive by bike. That increase is due in large part to indie-rock duo Illiterate Light and their bike-powered stage—and in 2025, #IlliterateLight's #RoadToNewport ride, starting July 7 in #HarrisonburgVirginia, continuing through #BaltimoreMaryland July 13, #AsburyParkNewJersey July 18, reaching #NewportRhodeIsland July 25. Bike valet by Bike Newport is provided at the festival.

Illiterate Light fans can follow their 600-mile route and attend live shows along the way (as well as at Newport).
