2026 City Lights Stars: Juice- August 14th

The City Lights & Stars concert series returns to Burritt on the Mountain for its 33rd season, bringing JUICE to the stage on August 14th. This high-energy band has shared billing with Kool & the Gang, Boyz II Men, and The Zac Brown Band, delivering performances that blend funk, R&B, and Motown into an electrifying show. At Burritt's mountaintop venue, families can spread out blankets and lawn chairs while taking in panoramic views of Huntsville as the sun sets and the music begins. It's an ideal summer evening activity for all ages, where kids can dance on the grass while parents relax with the city lights twinkling below. Gates open at 6:00 pm with the concert starting at 7:00 pm. Tickets range from $25 to $60 and can be purchased online until 4:00 pm the day of the show (or earlier if sold out). Burritt members get early access to tickets starting March 15th, with general sales opening April 1st. Food trucks will be on-site, and beer and wine are available for purchase, though outside alcohol isn't permitted. Families can also reserve a pre-concert BBQ dinner at The View for $30 per person, which must be booked by the Tuesday before the concert. Plan to bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating, and consider packing layers since evenings on the mountain can cool down after sunset. If afternoon weather looks threatening, the concert moves indoors to the Bendickson Family Pavilion. The outdoor setting and family-friendly music make this particularly enjoyable for elementary-aged children and teens who can move around freely, though the concert atmosphere works for toddlers and infants too if your family enjoys outdoor evening events.
