Huntsville Hospital Foundation announces headliner for Huntsville Classic

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WAFF) - The Huntsville Hospital Foundation has announced an international superstar as its headliner for the 37th annual Huntsville Classic.

The Huntsville Classic is recognized as one of North Alabama’s largest fundraising events. It combines live music with community impact.

Proceeds from the 2026 Huntsville Classic concert will benefit the highest priority needs of not-for-profit Huntsville Hospital, Madison Hospital and Huntsville Hospital for Women & Children, including: grief support for children at The Caring House, emergency department expansion at Madison Hospital and a new echocardiogram machine for the Heart Center.

Huntsville Hospital is where our community turns in moments of need. Supporting Classic means supporting the caregivers, technologies and programs that serve our families every single day. It is an honor to help bring our community together for something that makes such a meaningful difference.

—  Huntsville Classic Co-Chair Ginger Harper

On Monday, the Huntsville Hospital Foundation announced singer-songwriter Rob Thomas as the headliner.
