Reading time: 3 minutes

Today, the organizers of Iron Hills Country Music Festival released the lineup for the new festival, which is set to take place at Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark on October 11th and 12th.
Birmingham’s first-ever country music festival
At the end of 2024, the co-founders of Furnace Fest—local entrepreneur Johnny Grimes and Nashville record executive Chad Johnson—announced their latest project: Birmingham’s first-ever country music festival.
Dubbed Iron Hills Country Music Festival, the new festival promises, “a weekend packed with incredible performances, delicious food, cold drinks, and unbeatable southern hospitality.”
“The current climate of the music festival experience tells us that the fans expectations are at the highest level. Fans want what they pay for. Every principal involved in this event started out as a music fan long before we were the ones producing the events. We trust that we have the collective experience of being fans first to ask ourselves — what kind of event would we want to attend? How do we push Iron Hills to be something that stands on its own among a sea of other epic concert events out there today? You can book great talent. You can hire in great food and great drink vendors. How do we extend beyond what money can buy and produce, not just a concert or a festival, but a world-class experience that will provide memories that last a lifetime? We welcomed the idea of such a challenge.”
