Epilepsy Services of New Jersey
15th Annual Paint the Pony Purple
A Family Friendly Benefit Concert
Raising Awareness for Epilepsy

Paint the Pony Purple is a Battle of the Bands–style benefit concert dedicated to raising awareness and support for individuals and families living with epilepsy. Hosted at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, this annual event is presented by Epilepsy Services of New Jersey (ESNJ).

Local bands take the stage in a high-energy competition where music, mission, and community collide, and fans decide the winner. Paint the Pony Purple brings artists and supporters together to amplify epilepsy awareness, support advocacy efforts, and raise critical funds for ESNJ’s epilepsy programs in New Jersey. Every dollar raised helps expand education, resources, and services that promote independence and quality of life for people living with epilepsy.

Attendees will experience nonstop live performances and interactive experiences, and have access to free educational resources provided by event sponsors. Paint the Pony Purple is more than a Battle of the Bands. It is a loud, unapologetic show of support for the epilepsy community, powered by music and purpose.
