According to The Hollywood Reporter, the story will resume years after the events of 'Camp Rock 2', when the Grey Brothers' band, Connect 3, returns to the beloved literal Camp Rock.

The official logline reads: 'The story picks up when Connect 3 lose their opening act for a major reunion tour, returning to their beloved Camp Rock to discover the next big thing. As campers vie for the chance to open for their favourite band, tensions rise and friendships are tested, leading to unexpected alliances, revelations and romances. Camp Rock's all-new campers include bold and determined Sage (Segura) and her easygoing brother Desi (Stone), cello prodigy Rosie (Pollack), drummer with his own beat Cliff (Trotter), choreo queen Callie (Pitts), intimidating influencer Madison (Jean) and camp bad boy Fletch (Barton),' as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter.

The original Camp Rock, a Disney Channel Original Movie, came out in 2008, spotlighting Lovato's Mitchie, a singer who attends Camp Rock when her mother (Canals-Barrera) is hired to work as the caterer.

While there, Mitchie meets Shane Gray (Joe), a member of Connect 3, who has to record a song with the winner of the Final Jam, a singing competition at the camp.

Shane grows enamoured by Mitchie's voice after overhearing her sing one day, and spends the majority of the film trying to uncover who was behind 'the voice,' as he calls it, reported The Hollywood Reporter.

The 2010 follow-up, 'Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam', tackled the near-closure of Camp Rock with the newfound success of rival Camp Star. The two opposing teams battled against one another in a competition that ultimately went to the latter camp, nearly ensuring the conclusion of Camp Rock.

However, at the end of the movie, a slew of campers opted to return to Camp Rock, allowing it to stay open.

The Jonas Brothers and Lovato recently reunited on stage during the opening night of the band's Jonas20: Greetings from Your Hometown Tour. They performed two songs, 'This Is Me' and 'Wouldn't Change a Thing,' from Camp Rock during the show, igniting speculation online about a potential third film in the franchise, reported The Hollywood Reporter.
