Loblolly Fest 2026
October 17, 2026 | The Bluff Amphitheater | Gadsden, Alabama

We’re kicking off something special right here in Gadsden.

Loblolly Fest is coming to The Bluff Amphitheater on October 17th for its very first year, bringing a full day of live music, good food, cold drinks, and a whole lot of fun to our hometown.

Born and raised right here in Hokes Bluff, Drake White is bringing this festival home. We wanted to create a day that feels like Gadsden and Hokes Bluff. Good people, good music, and everybody coming together for a great cause.

And that’s what makes Loblolly Fest even more special. A portion of proceeds from the festival will benefit Drake White’s Benefit for the Brain, supporting a cause that means a whole lot to Drake and his family.

So grab your friends, and come spend the day with us at The Bluff. We’re starting something new, and we’d love for y’all to be there from the very beginning.

One day. One hometown. One hell of a good time.
