2025 Gulf Coast Jam Unveils First Headliners

/by

Gulf Coast Jam presented by Jim Beam has unveiled Lainey Wilson and Sam Hunt as its first headliners for the 2025 festival.

The four-day event wrapped up last month with a sold out crowd. Choreographed drones announced that Wilson was the initial headliner for the upcoming year. Following the announcement, organizers revealed Hunt as the second of four headliners.

“Lainey has just exploded the past couple of years, and we were so excited to announce her as the first of four headliners for next year,” says festival Executive Producer Rendy Lovelady. “Sam Hunt has been one of our most requested artists, and we can’t wait to see him open the 2025 festival.”

This year’s festival, headlined by Morgan Wallen, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson and Parker McCollum, sold out before 2023 came to a close. With a fourth night added to the event to commemorate the festival’s 10 year anniversary in 2022, organizers made the decision to make the additional day a permanent part of the schedule moving forward.

“What better way to kick off our 2025 Festival than with the ACM Entertainer of the Year and Sam Hunt,” adds Gulf Coast Jam Presented by Jim Beam COO Mark Sheldon. “Every year just gets better and better, and having Lainey and Sam here is an amazing start.”

The upcoming Gulf Coast Jam presented by Jim Beam is set to take place in Panama City Beach May 30 through June 1, 2025, with additional headliners to be announced in the coming weeks. Tickets are available now at www.gulfcoastjam.com.
