Gem & Jam Statement
In a social media statement, organizers shared their disappointment, noting that despite extensive planning, the circumstances just “didn’t feel right” to proceed. “We know you were excited for the 2025 lineup, and we were too,” they stated, adding that while they put their hearts into making it happen, the timing wasn’t aligned.
Options for Ticket Holders
Ticket holders have two choices:
–
Keep your tickets for entry to the 2026 festival.
or
Request a refund by completing the form on the festival’s website by 11:59 PM PT on November 18, 2024.
The Gem and Jam postponement follows similar decisions by other festivals like Backwoods at Mulberry Mountain and Envision Festival, both citing rising costs and shifting ticket demand as challenges.
Gem and Jam Music Festival
Since 2005, the Gem and Jam Festival has grown from a side event to Tucson’s premier celebration of music, art, and gemstones. Held each year alongside the Tucson Gem, Mineral, and Fossil Showcase, the festival features a mix of electronic music, live art, and rare gemstones, making it a unique draw for music lovers and gem enthusiasts alike.
