The inaugural Ohio Valley Jamboree event kicks off on Saturday August 23rd in Moundsville, West Virginia. These regularly scheduled concerts will feature traditional country music, bluegrass, and rockabilly.

West Virginia Penitentiary is the temporary home of the Ohio Valley Jamboree. The Industries Building is the hall where the event will be held. Historically, this large building was a recent addition to the historic prison complex, being constructed in the 1970s for the inmates to work in assorted vocations and lastly, used to make license plates.

Our first day long event will feature multiple bands from near and far as well as food, drink, and merchandise vendors from the Ohio Valley and beyond.
