Camp on the Illinois River for a weekend in September and listen as some of Oklahoma’s and the nation’s finest songwriters and musicians perform at picturesque Peyton’s Place in Tahlequah. Curated and hosted by respected Oklahoma roots musician Travis Linville, the Illinois River Jam camping and music gathering is a veritable who’s who of Oklahoma Red Dirt, Folk and Americana musicians all gathered in one spot by the river. Since 2007, Oklahoma music fans have come to Illinois River Jam to enjoy three evenings of music on one stage under a big tent set up in the middle of the campground. This event is BYOB — bring a cooler and all the food and drink you want.
