For years, the Levitt AMP Selma Music Series has brought thousands of people together in downtown Selma through the power of FREE live music, culture, community, and connection.

But these concerts are about more than entertainment…

They create economic opportunity for local vendors, increase foot traffic downtown, support small businesses, give families safe and joyful experiences, and help remind people what’s possible when a community comes together.

Now, we’re inviting businesses, organizations, and community supporters to help us keep the music playing and Selma thriving.

Whether your contribution is large or small, your support helps make this series possible.

🎶 Free concerts
🏙️ Downtown activation
🤝 Community connection
💼 Economic impact
❤️ A stronger Selma!

We believe great cities create spaces where people can gather, celebrate, and belong… and the Levitt AMP Selma Music Series does exactly that.

Join us as a sponsor for the 2026 season! Opportunities can be customized to suit your needs. Packages start at $250 and go up to $10k… for those brands that want massive visibility across all ten concerts.

BIG NEWS, SELMA! 🎶✨

The 2026 Levitt AMP Selma Music Series is officially moving forward with a refreshed and intentional season format... and we are excited about what’s ahead.

This year, the series will run from Saturday, July 25 through Saturday, October 24, continuing on our familiar 2nd and 4th Saturday cadence while featuring seven highly curated concert experiences along Selma’s beautiful riverfront.

Why the shift?

Because Selma deserves excellence.

After thoughtful conversations with partners, sponsors, community members, and our planning committee, we made the decision to focus on producing fewer shows while maintaining the high-quality artists, production, atmosphere, and community experience that have made the Levitt AMP Selma Music Series special.

Rather than stretching resources thin or compromising quality, we chose to create a stronger, more sustainable season that gives us additional time to secure sponsors, strengthen partnerships, and build unforgettable experiences for our community.

And honestly? Many of the neighbors and supporters we spoke with loved the idea of a more concentrated season packed with intentional themes, exciting cultural experiences, and dynamic entertainment.

This season will feature:
🎷 The Bridge City Jazz Festival
🔥 Smoke in the City Blues + Grilling Competition
🚗 Soul + Classic Car Show
🎤 Gospel Choir Fest
💃 Fiesta Night
🎶 Southern Soul Finale
…and much more!

Every concert remains FREE and open to the public because we believe high-quality arts and culture belong to everybody.

Thank you for continuing to believe in this series, support downtown Selma, uplift local vendors, and help us build community through music.

We’re not scaling back.
We’re leveling up with intention.

See you at the riverfront beginning July 25! 🌊🎵

The Levitt AMP Selma Music Series is supported in part by the Mortimer & Mimi Levitt Foundation, which partners with changemakers and nonprofits across the country to activate underused outdoor spaces, creating welcoming and inclusive destinations where the power of free, live music brings people together, fosters belonging, and invigorates community life. www.levitt.org.
