DOTHAN,Ala. (WDNews) — The City of Dothan is bringing live music back to downtown as the Park Concert Series returns for its second year, offering residents a season of free outdoor entertainment.
With warmer weather approaching, the City of Dothan’s Performing Arts Department announced the 2026 Park Concert Series will feature several live performances throughout the spring and summer. Organizers say the series builds on the success of last year’s inaugural events while introducing a refreshed format.
Instead of day-long festivals, the 2026 series will focus on individual evenings of live music in a relaxed downtown setting designed to bring the community together.
The season will open with two performances:
• Saturday, March 28, 2026 – Saxsquatch with DJ Rush Hour
• Saturday, April 18, 2026 – Drivin N Cryin with The Alabama Heathens
All concerts will begin at 7 p.m. Food trucks will be available on site, and downtown restaurants are expected to remain open during the events. Organizers say all concerts are free and open to the public.
“Come for the music, stay for the shared community experience,” organizers said. “The Park Concert Series is about enjoying great nights of live entertainment while bringing people together in the heart of our city.”
Additional concerts are scheduled later in the season, including:
• May 23 – Pynk Beard with Dcovan Mathews
• June 27 – Jazmin Ghent with Jwalkonthetrak
• July 4 – Solon Holt
• August 1 – Wiregrass Fest curated by Ariel Casey
