downtown huntsville big spring park music festival

Welcome to Summer

From music and food to children’s activities and festivals, Huntsville has a little bit of everything during the summer months.

SUMMERTIME MUSIC

Huntsville has quite the music scene on its hands with local bands, choral groups, and the oldest, continuously operating professional orchestra in Alabama. From concerts in our downtown park to the gazebo in historic Madison City, or music on the mountain – the air in Huntsville is bursting with the songs of summer.

FOOD, FOOD, AND MORE FOOD

Not only do we have a full month dedicated to celebrating food in Huntsville – Restaurant Week and Culinary Month –Downtown Huntsville also hosts multiple food truck rallies. Whatever your appetite, there’s a table (or truck) waiting for you in the summer months in Huntsville, Alabama.
