CaveJam will return to Pelham, TN’s subterranean live music venue, The Caverns, for its second year over Memorial Day Weekend 2025.
Once again topping the bill at the two-day 2025 event, set for May 24th and 25th, is a multi-night engagement by The String Cheese Incident, which will perform four sets over the course of the event including three on the venue’s larger, above-ground amphitheater stage and one late-night set underground in the main Caverns venue. Other performers due to appear at CaveJam 2025 include The Infamous Stringdusters, Andy Frasco & The U.N., Armchair Boogie, BERTHA: Grateful Drag, Dizgo, Hayley Jane Band, The Headhunters, Jesse Roper, Pajamas, and Space Bacon.
“Playing at The Caverns was one of the highlights of our summer tour,” said The String Cheese Incident’s Michael Kang of CaveJam 2024, “The amphitheater above ground was one of the coolest outdoor venues I’ve ever been to. When we descended into the cave is when it got truly magical and unique. Totally epic and unforgettable!”
Beyond the music programming, guests can take cave tours (including both guided walking tours and adventure tours with helmets and knee pads), join yoga and sound bath sessions, bring their own instruments to participate in an open cave jam, and attend a couple of special workshops. The event will also feature a number of activities for children.
“Now in its second year, CaveJam has become a signature springtime festival here at The Caverns,” said Joe Lurgio, The Caverns’ General Manager. “Our seasoned, music-loving team is dedicated to creating an unforgettable experience for both fans and artists, building on everything we’ve learned from our past events and festivals while always sprinkling in new festival magic everywhere we can.”
Late-night sets in the underground Caverns venue (BERTHA: Grateful Drag on Saturday, 5/24 and The String Cheese Incident on Sunday, 5/25) will be separately ticketed. Both nights’ late-night sets are included in VIP packages. For general admission guests, limited bundled 2-day tickets include admission to both The String Cheese Incident and BERTHA: Grateful Drag’s late-night sets.
CaveJam 2025 offers a range of VIP glamping options that complement the unique appeal of The Caverns. Attendees can choose from a range of accommodations to suit different preferences and budgets. At the top end is The Caverns’ secluded yurt village, offering climate-controlled yurts with king-size beds, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and private decks. Other glamping options include luxury canvas bell tents, complete with queen beds, bedding, a bistro table, and more. For a cost-effective VIP option, there are Pre-Pitched Tent Packages with amenities like two cots, a canopy, camp chairs, and a tent light. Guests who prefer to bring their own camping gear can still enjoy all VIP perks by selecting a VIP Camping Package. RV camping passes are also available. Free car camping is included with all CaveJam tickets.
All VIP packages include access to both festival days, early campground entry on Friday, May 23rd, guaranteed access to The String Cheese Incident’s late-night cave set, and admission to BERTHA: Grateful Drag’s cave show. VIP guests also enjoy multiple VIP viewing areas, catered brunches and dinners, VIP restroom trailers and showers, an exclusive restroom in the amphitheater, a private cash bar with daily discounted Happy Hours, access to charging stations, free massages, on-site VIP concierges, and shuttle transportation to and from the campground.
