📢 Important Announcement: Music in the Woods Canceled for 2025

Due to significant damage from Hurricane Helene, we regret to announce that Music in the Woods at Paris Mountain State Park will be canceled for the 2025 season.

The stage and surrounding area were impacted heavily, but we’re already hard at work planning for a strong return in 2026. Our dedicated park staff and the Friends of Paris Mountain State Park are collaborating to rebuild and reimagine the space.

We’d like to extend a HUGE thank you to Indigenous Ingenuities, LLC for their beautiful architectural renderings, and to Abstract Pools for their expert engineering plans and countless volunteer hours.

If you love Music in the Woods and want to help bring it back stronger than ever, please consider donating through the Friends of Paris Mountain State Park. Every contribution helps us keep the music alive. 🎶🌲

We hope you and your loved ones are safe. Unfortunately, due to the recent storm, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of this season’s Music in the Woods. The storm caused extensive damage to the stage, inverter, and batteries.

The park staff has been working hard to clean up not just the amphitheater, but the entire park, and they’ll continue to do everything they can. It’s heartbreaking to see the devastation to such a beautiful area, but we’re hopeful and determined to rebuild. We’re already looking forward to welcoming everyone back next season.

Thank you so much for your understanding and support. We can’t wait to see you all next year and bring the music back to the woods. ❤
