Chris Stapleton and festival co-founder Tyler Childers have been announced as the headliners for the 2025 edition of Healing Appalachia, which bills itself as “the largest recovery-based music festival.” The event is relocating to eastern Kentucky after five years in West Virginia, and is set to take place at “a mountaintop near the Boyd County Fairgrounds” in Ashland on September 19-20. Both Childers and Stapleton are native Kentuckyans, making this somewhat of a hometown show for both country stars. The festival aims to raise addiction and recovery awareness, while highlighting empathy and inspiring life-saving action globally. Attendance at the annual festival has grown significantly since it first started, attracting top artists like Jason Isbell, Margo Price, and last year’s headliner, My Morning Jacket. Funds raised by the festival support various life-saving programs across Appalachia and beyond. Tickets are available for purchase, with general admission at $199 for adults and $25 for children, and VIP passes at an early-bird price of $650. (Variety)
