The Jam Room Music Festival returns to downtown Cola on Saturday, Oct. 26. In its 11th year, it will feature live music performances on two stages in the Main Street District from 12 to 10 p.m.

In addition to music you can jam out to, the weekend festival will include activities hosted by other local arts organizations, food vendors, and beverages provided by WeCo Bottle and Beer Garden. Bonus: Leading up to the festival, several partner events will take place around town.

This year’s lineup highlights Southeast + national talent and will be headlined by Real Estate — a Brooklyn-based band that recently returned from a European tour. Fun fact: Their latest album was produced by GRAMMY-winning producer and songwriter Daniel Tashian. Meet the rest of the lineup.
