Coastal Country Jam is officially scheduled to return to Huntington Beach for a two-day event taking place on May 22-23, according to a local news report. The upcoming return brings back a prominent country music festival to the coastal city where the popular annual event first established its roots.
According to the details provided regarding the background and history of the festival, the Coastal Country Jam originally started in Huntington Beach back in 2016. After hosting the multi-day event in that local venue for several years, the festival organizers made the decision to move the annual gathering to Long Beach in 2023. Now, after spending time away from the original coastal venue, organizers are actively preparing to bring the popular celebration back to the city where the tradition all began.
Reflecting on this upcoming transition back to the festival's original home, Steve Thacher shared thoughts regarding the lengthy planning process involved. Specifically, Steve Thacher told a local news report, "We’ve been working for the last couple of years to bring Coastal Country Jam back to where it all started, and it feels good to be returning to Huntington Beach with Luke Bryan and Megan Moroney."
Despite the upcoming move back to Orange County and the city of Huntington Beach, organizers also took the opportunity to acknowledge their time spent hosting the event in the neighboring area. Looking back at the previous venue's run, Steve Thacher told a local news report, "We really enjoyed our time in Long Beach, and we’re grateful to everyone who joined us there."
Attendees and country music fans planning to make it out to the event will have several prominent musical acts to look forward to seeing perform live during the two-day gathering. The festival schedule confirms that Luke Bryan and Megan Moroney have been officially named as the primary headliners for the upcoming May dates. In addition to the main headliners, the festival's additional lineup includes popular country music artists Thomas Rhett and Parker McCollum, completely rounding out the musical performances scheduled for the weekend.
For local residents, music enthusiasts, and visitors hoping to secure their attendance early, ticketing timelines have been officially established. A ticket pre-sale for the Coastal Country Jam begins on Nov. 12, giving eager fans their very first opportunity to purchase passes for the festival. Following the conclusion of the pre-sale event, the general public ticket sale officially begins on the following day, Nov. 13, allowing all interested attendees to purchase their tickets for the May 22-23 festival dates in Huntington Beach.
