The Concert for Cumberland Heights began in 1996 to benefit the John Hiatt Fund for Adolescent and Young Adult Treatment. It is the longest running benefit concert at the Ryman Auditorium. Thanks to the generosity of donors, this event has raised more than $3.8 million over the years to help teenagers and young adults struggling with addiction receive the specialized care and support they need. Approximately 2,400 people attend the concert each year, making it a powerful tradition that unites music and mission.Tickets are available now through the Ryman Auditorium box office and online at www.ryman.com.
