ALABAMA co-founders Owen and Gentry resurrected June Jam last summer after a 16-year hiatus. The revived festival drew nearly 11,000 fans to Fort Payne.
“We are excited and look forward to playing our songs for y’all at this year’s Jam,” Owen said. “We have a true mutual love for our fans, and they always support the band and the June Jam Foundation.”
“When we started the first June Jam in 1982 as a charity concert event, it was attended by over 30,000 fans,” explains Gentry. “At the time, it was the largest country music festival in the United States. Now we are getting ready for our 18th concert. We want to welcome everyone to Fort Payne, Alabama, our hometown. Come have a great time and help others in need!”

Collectively, the previous 17 editions of June Jam events have raised over $20 million for the state of Alabama. Money raised by the event goes to the June Jam Foundation which donates to organizations and causes across the state including disaster relief.
