Gem & Jam Festival Cancel 2025 Edition, Claim “Unforeseen Challenges”

Another festival has fallen victim to these grim past months, a time of gathering cancellations by the hour. Gem & Jam Festival organizers have released a statement to communicate they’ve made the difficult decision to postpone the 2025 event. They, however, confirm the festival will return in 2026.

The organizers cited “unforeseen challenges” in curating the 2025 lineup as the reason for the postponement. They expressed their commitment to delivering a top-notch experience and believe that taking a year off will allow them to return stronger than ever. “After tirelessly working on the lineup and things not falling into place like they usually do, it just didn’t feel right“, they said.

That being said, mark your calendars for February 6-8, 2026, because we’ll be back at the Pima County Fairgrounds in Tucson, ready to deliver something truly special“, the statement continues. Ticket holders for the 2025 event have the option to either hold onto their tickets, which will be automatically transferred to the 2026 event with a free VIP upgrade, or request a full refund.
