After five years in West Virginia, Healing Appalachia announced its move to Kentucky for 2025. The festival will kick off on Sept. 19 on a mountaintop near the Boyd County Fairgrounds in Ashland.
“We are thrilled that the Healing Appalachia team is taking a chance on Boyd County, Kentucky for 2025,” said Andrew Steele, Executive Director of Boyd County Tourism. “The mission behind the festival is so impactful for our region, and we are excited to show off what Team Kentucky support looks like from local entities all the way up to the state level!”
On Monday, April 21, Healing Appalachia announced that Tyler Childers will return alongside Chris Stapleton to headline. 2025 will mark the first year Stapleton will make an appearance and Childers’ fifth consecutive headline slot.
“Two sons of the Country Music Highway come home to help us heal Appalachia,” organizers wrote. “We can’t wait to show you what else we’ve got in store.”
