We said we would periodically post some memories from 2026 thanks to content submitted by you guys. So here’s the first post.

Chad G***e from Steel City Guitar Works spent the weekend re stringing and checking over everyone’s instruments. FOR FREE!! We think Chad was an excellent addition to the event this past year and sincerely thank him for his donated time and materials. We also hope that if you need any luthier work done you’ll consider Chad and Steel City Guitar Works.

Stay tuned for more content from 2026 to help keep those winter blues at bay!

📣📣Attention Ice Jammers! WE NEED YOUR HELP!📣📣

The Bluegrass Relief Fund committee is looking for content! If you have short (3 ish minute) videos of jams, stage performances, or just great photos of your crew having a great time at the 2026 January Ice Jam that you would like to see us feature on this page, we would love to have them! The committee would like to try and feature some of that content every other week between now and the 2027 festival.

So if you have it, send it over to this page via messenger and in the coming weeks we will try to share it here. Maybe it will help us pass the time between now and January 2027
