The Covered Bridge Jams summer concert series is set to return for its 11th year, bringing live music to Covered Bridge Park nearly every Saturday night from June through August. Presented by the Elizabethton Parks and Recreation Department, this free concert series showcases a diverse lineup of southern rock, country, and bluegrass artists, featuring local, regional, and national performers.

This year’s lineup includes a mix of fan favorites and new acts, with food trucks on-site all season offering a variety of dining and snack options. Concertgoers are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs for an evening of free live music. Performances begin at 7 p.m. unless otherwise noted.

“We are so excited to bring another summer of live music to Covered Bridge Park,” said David Nanney, director of Elizabethton Parks and Recreation. “Covered Bridge Jams has become a great tradition in our community, providing quality entertainment in a family-friendly environment. This year’s lineup has something for everyone, and we look forward to seeing folks come out and enjoy the shows.”
