Hey Huntsville! Get ready to mark your calendars because there’s some incredible news about an upcoming event that you won’t want to miss. The Huntsville Hospital Foundation has just announced that the nationally-loved Avett Brothers will be the headlining act for their 36th Annual Huntsville Classic Fundraiser. This exciting concert will take place on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at none other than Huntsville’s very own Orion Amphitheater!
About the Avett Brothers
For those who might not know, the Avett Brothers are a powerhouse in the Americana music scene, having captivated audiences for over two decades. Known for their catchy melodies, thoughtful songwriting, and unique blend of bluegrass and folk rock, they have built a loyal fan base. With three prestigious GRAMMY nominations under their belts—including one for the hit song “Ain’t No Man” in 2017—there’s no doubt that this band knows how to put on an unforgettable show. Their latest self-titled album, released to much anticipation, has been in the works since 2019, and is another testament to their musical evolution and dedication.
A Great Cause
This year’s concert isn’t just about fantastic music; it’s all for an incredibly noble cause. Proceeds from the Huntsville Classic will support the top-priority needs of the not-for-profit Huntsville Hospital for Women & Children, which is the only facility in the region dedicated to women’s health and advanced pediatric care. With every ticket purchase, you’re directly contributing to improving the lives of thousands of local women and children by helping to fund vital programs, technology upgrades, and necessary equipment.
Words from the Foundation
“As our region grows, we are committed to providing world-class care locally, enabling patients and families access to high-quality care close to home,” shares Sarah Savage-Jones, the President of Huntsville Hospital Foundation. “By purchasing a concert ticket, you are doing much more than attending a great show. You’re investing in equipment, programs, technology, facility upgrades and more that elevate what’s possible for patients at our public hospital.”
