DESCRIPTION:BIRMINGHAM\, Ala. – Birmingham is getting an elegant evening of live music\, candlelight and Black-tie sophistication as the UNCF Young Professionals Advisory Council (YPAC) presents Jazz After Dark: A Candlelight Concert on Saturday\, August 29\, 2026. \nThe exclusive Black-tie experience will feature Elias Hendricks\, bringing live jazz to an intimate candlelight setting at the Harambe Room\, located at 1815 4th Avenue North\, 3rd Floor\, in downtown Birmingham. \nDoors open at 7 p.m.\, with the show beginning at 8 p.m. \nDesigned as more than just a night out\, Jazz After Dark combines live entertainment\, atmosphere and purpose while supporting the work and mission connected to UNCF (United Negro College Fund) and its Young Professionals Advisory Council. \n \nAn Evening of Jazz With a Purpose\nUNCF has spent decades working to increase educational opportunities for students while supporting historically Black colleges and universities and helping students gain access to higher education. \nThe Young Professionals Advisory Council provides an avenue for emerging professionals and community leaders to become engaged with that mission through fundraising\, advocacy\, networking and community involvement. \nJazz After Dark brings that mission together with an upscale social experience\, giving Birmingham-area professionals and supporters an opportunity to enjoy an evening of entertainment while connecting with an organization focused on expanding educational opportunity. \nGuests can expect a candlelit atmosphere with Elias Hendricks taking center stage for an evening of live jazz. \nThe event is promoted as an “Exclusive Black Tie Experience\,” making it a great opportunity for couples\, groups of friends\, young professionals\, UNCF supporters and jazz lovers looking for something different to experience in Birmingham. \n \nBirmingham Talent With a Global Stage\nFor Birmingham audiences\, the evening also provides an opportunity to experience the extraordinary talent of Birmingham native Elias Hendricks III\, whose career has taken him from his hometown to stages around the world. A classically trained tenor with the ability to move seamlessly between opera\, soul\, gospel\, musical theater and contemporary music\, Hendricks has performed internationally in productions including Disney’s The Lion King in Hong Kong and Motown: The Musical on London’s West End\, in addition to touring Europe with his one-man soul show\, Ain’t Too Proud to Beg. \nHendricks’ international career has also taken him around the world as a featured entertainer aboard major cruise ships.

Most recently\, Hendricks completed an engagement aboard MSC Euribia before traveling to Fiji to join P&O Cruises’ Arcadia during its World Cruise. His years of performing for audiences across different countries and cultures have helped shape the distinctive sound he calls “Classical Soul”—a fusion of his operatic training with the soul\, gospel and R&B influences of his Birmingham roots. \nHendricks is also the founder of the classical crossover group Vox Fortura\, which reached the semifinals of Britain’s Got Talent and has performed internationally.

SUMMARY:Dîner en Blanc Birmingham Returns September 12 with Chrisette Michele and Chef Lamar Lockett for an Elegant Evening Under the Stars
DESCRIPTION:BIRMINGHAM\, Ala. – One of Birmingham’s most anticipated social experiences is making its return this fall as Dîner en Blanc Birmingham celebrates its 7th edition on Saturday\, September 12\, 2026. Once again\, more than 1\,000 guests dressed entirely in white will gather at a secret location for an unforgettable evening inspired by the elegance and traditions of Paris. \n \nThis year’s celebration continues to raise the bar with the announcement that Grammy Award-winning singer Chrisette Michele will perform live while acclaimed Birmingham chef joins the experience as the featured culinary talent.

Guests may either pack their own gourmet picnic or reserve catered meals and rental equipment through the event’s online store. In keeping with its French heritage\, wine and Champagne are served\, while guests are also welcome to bring non-alcoholic beverages. The event also maintains a strong commitment to sustainability by asking every attendee to leave the venue exactly as they found it. \nDîner en Blanc Birmingham is hosted by Jasmine Allen\, who returns alongside Lynnette Favors to welcome guests for another year of elegance and celebration. Allen describes this year’s experience as “elegance in motion—timeless\, luminous\, and unapologetically French\,” capturing the spirit of the 2026 theme and the atmosphere guests can expect. \nOriginally launched in Paris\, Dîner en Blanc has grown into an international cultural phenomenon spanning more than 120 cities across 40 countries\, bringing communities together through fashion\, food\, entertainment\, and unforgettable shared experiences. \nGuests interested in attending are encouraged to join the Birmingham Fan List to receive updates and notification when Phase 3 registration becomes available.

SUMMARY:Irondale Celebrates 139 Years with FREE Music Fest Featuring The Tony Tatum Experience
DESCRIPTION:IRONDALE\, AL — The City of Irondale is getting ready to celebrate its 139th birthday in a big way with an afternoon of live music\, food and community at Irondale Music Fest 2026\, presented by Mayor James D. Stewart Jr. \nThe FREE celebration takes place Saturday\, September 26\, at Beacon Park\, 5309 Beacon Drive in Irondale. Gates open at 3 p.m.\, with the show beginning at 4 p.m. The event runs until 7 p.m. and admission is free. \nThe Tony Tatum Experience Headlines a Strong Lineup\nHeadlining this year’s celebration is The Tony Tatum Experience\, and this won’t be a scaled-down performance. Tatum is bringing his full 12-piece band to Beacon Park for the celebration. \nThose who attended I Love Irondale Day earlier this summer may remember Tatum bringing plenty of energy to the stage. For Music Fest\, he’s returning with an even bigger show. \nBut the music doesn’t stop there. \n \nThe festival lineup also includes violinist Dominique Hammons\, whose high-energy performances bring the violin into the worlds of R&B\, jazz\, soul and contemporary music. \nAdding some HBCU flavor to the celebration will be the Alabama A&M University Choir\, bringing the rich vocal tradition of one of Alabama’s historic HBCUs to the Irondale stage. \nBirmingham-area flutist Sherry Reeves will also perform\, adding another dimension to an afternoon designed to showcase a variety of musical styles and sounds. \nAnd keeping the music moving throughout the celebration will be DJ Maverick (Willie Hudgins)\, another familiar face at Irondale community events. \nIt’s a lineup that gives you a little bit of everything—live band energy\, strings\, vocals\, jazz influences and a DJ keeping the party going. \nBring Your Lawn Chairs — and Your Appetite\nIrondale Music Fest is designed to be more than just a concert. It’s a community birthday party\, so bring your lawn chairs\, find a comfortable spot and plan to spend the afternoon. \nThere will also be plenty to eat. Food vendors announced for the festival include Eugene’s Hot Chicken\, AJ’s Lemonade\, Dream Flavors\, GeGe’s Tasty Cakes\, Good Ole DAWGS\, My Planet Punches\, Signature Grille and The DIRTY RED. \nParking will be available at “The Hill” at Grants Mill Station\, with shuttle service provided to Beacon Park. Small coolers and clear bags are allowed; however\, outside food is not permitted. \nUrbanham Has Been Watching What’s Happening in Irondale\nIf you’ve been following Urbanham\, you already know that we’ve been keeping an eye on Irondale. \nEarlier this year\, we published “We REALLY Like What’s Going On In Irondale” after spending some time in the city and getting a closer look at its community events and economic-development vision. \nWhat caught our attention wasn’t simply one project or one event. It was the combination of community engagement\, quality-of-life initiatives and major economic development happening at the same time. \nAnd Irondale hasn’t slowed down. \nEarlier this month\, the city hosted Cruise-In Cinema\, combining a car show with an outdoor showing of Furious 7. The September 11 event featured free admission\, free popcorn\, food and drink vendors and a Best in Show competition. \nEvents like Cruise-In Cinema and Music Fest are giving residents something to do while also giving people from throughout the Birmingham metro another reason to come into Irondale. \n“One City. One Billion.”\nAll of this is happening alongside Mayor Stewart’s ambitious vision for Irondale’s future. \nThe city’s “One City. One Billion.” initiative is centered around attracting $1 billion in investment by 2033\, with economic development\, residential growth and quality-of-life improvements helping drive that strategy. \nThat’s a big number—but some equally big projects are beginning to make that vision feel much more tangible. \nOne of the most talked-about developments is the arrival of Costco\, a project expected to significantly expand Irondale’s retail footprint while attracting shoppers from throughout the Birmingham metro and beyond. \nAnd now there’s another major development to watch. \n$30 Million Golf House Alabama Coming to Irondale\nThe Alabama Golf Foundation recently purchased approximately 80 acres next to Pine Tree Golf & Country Club for the development of Golf House Alabama\, a statewide golf destination that will bring several of Alabama’s golf organizations together in one location and become home to the new Alabama Golf Hall of Fame. \nThe foundation is raising funds toward a $30 million goal for the first phase\, with construction expected to begin in November 2026 and the facility targeted to open in 2028. Combined with the neighboring Pine Tree Golf & Country Club property\, the investment encompasses approximately 363 acres. \nAnd this isn’t simply office space. \nPlans include a 30-bay hitting area with TrackMan technology\, championship-caliber par-3 course\, short-game practice area\, outdoor event lawn\, instructional areas and an Agronomy and Careers Center affiliated with Auburn University. \nMayor Stewart has connected the Golf House project directly to Irondale’s larger vision of becoming a destination city rather than simply a community people pass through. \nThat’s an important distinction. \nRetail brings people into a city. Recreation brings people into a city. Entertainment brings people into a city. Community events bring people into a city. \nPut them together\, and you begin creating a destination. \n \nCome for the Music — Keep Watching Irondale\nThat’s what makes Irondale Music Fest 2026 interesting beyond what happens on the stage. \nIrondale is celebrating 139 years of history while simultaneously making some pretty ambitious plans for its future. \nFrom community events like Cruise-In Cinema and Music Fest to major projects involving Costco and Golf House Alabama\, Irondale is giving residents—and the rest of the Birmingham metro—more reasons to pay attention. \nBut on Saturday\, September 26\, economic development can take a back seat for a few hours. \nBring your lawn chair\, grab something good to eat and enjoy The Tony Tatum Experience\, Dominique Hammons\, the Alabama A&M University Choir\, Sherry Reeves and DJ Maverick as Irondale celebrates its 139th birthday. \nIRONDALE MUSIC FEST 2026Saturday\, September 26\, 20263 p.m.–7 p.m. | Gates Open at 3 p.m. | Show Starts at 4 p.m.Beacon Park | 5309 Beacon Drive | Irondale\, AL 35210Admission: FREE \nUrbanham.com will continue watching what’s happening in Irondale as the city works toward its vision for 2033.

SUMMARY:8Ball & MJG and Bun B Join The Renaissance Orchestra for Black-Tie Birmingham Concert
DESCRIPTION:BIRMINGHAM\, AL — Southern hip-hop is getting the orchestral treatment when legendary rap duo 8Ball & MJG and UGK’s Bun B join The Renaissance Orchestra for a special black-tie concert at the BJCC Concert Hall on Friday\, November 6\, 2026. \nShowtime is 8 p.m.\, and the BJCC officially describes the evening as a Black-Tie Event. \nSouthern Hip-Hop Meets the Orchestra\nFor longtime Southern hip-hop fans\, this is definitely not your typical concert. \nMemphis legends 8Ball & MJG helped establish the sound of Southern rap long before the South became the dominant force it is today. Their catalog includes fan favorites such as “Space Age Pimpin’” and “You Don’t Want Drama\,” while their 2004 album Living Legends further cemented their place in Southern hip-hop history. \nJoining them will be Houston legend Bun B\, one-half of the influential duo UGK (Underground Kingz). \nWhat makes this show particularly interesting is The Renaissance Orchestra\, which brings live orchestral instrumentation into the hip-hop experience. Birmingham audiences will get an opportunity to see the orchestra on its own at the Lyric Theatre on September 25 before it returns in November to provide the musical backdrop for 8Ball & MJG and Bun B. Ticketmaster confirms all three acts on the November 6 lineup. \nBreak Out the Black Tie\nAnd yes—dress for this one! \nRather than a traditional hip-hop concert atmosphere\, the November 6 performance is officially being presented as a Black-Tie Event\, creating an opportunity to dress up and experience some classic Southern hip-hop in an entirely different setting. \nIt’s hip-hop\, live instrumentation and grown-folks date-night energy all in one evening. \nEVENT DETAILS\nWhat: 8Ball & MJG and Bun B featuring The Renaissance OrchestraWhen: Friday\, November 6\, 2026Showtime: 8:00 p.m.Where: BJCC Concert HallAddress: 2100 Richard Arrington Jr. Blvd. N.\, Birmingham\, AL 35203Theme: Black-Tie Event \nTickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster. \nGET TICKETS – 8Ball & MJG and Bun B featuring The Renaissance Orchestra \nFollow Urbanham.com for more Birmingham concerts\, entertainment\, events and things to do around the Magic City.
