Downtown Huntsville, Inc. and the Huntsville Music Office are excited to announce the return of 805 After Five, a free outdoor concert series at Campus 805’s Butler Green Park.

Every third Thursday of each month from May through October, 805 After Five offers an eclectic lineup that highlights Huntsville’s creative spirit while showcasing national and regional artists to local audiences.

“We’re so excited about the lineup of talent we’ll have out to Campus 805 each month,” said Matt Mandrella, Huntsville Music Officer. “805 After Five is a perfect example of how Huntsville’s creative community is collaborating together to help grow our music scene and diversify our cultural landscape.”

The 2025 season kicks off on May 15 with Alabama’s own Lamont Landers, known for his soulful, Southern-infused sound.

Subsequent months will feature legendary New Orleans ensemble The Dirty Dozen Brass Band (June 19), rising blues star Eddie 9V (July 17), indie rock powerhouse Bully (August 21), viral saxophone sensation Saxsquatch (September 18) and a finale performance by Grateful Dead tribute band The Stolen Faces (October 16).

Beyond the music, attendees can enjoy local artisan vendors, food trucks, interactive activities and craft beverages from Straight to Ale and Yellowhammer Brewing. Free onsite parking is available, and guests are encouraged to carpool, bike or use rideshare services.
