The Oregon Jamboree is a three-day country music and camping festival held in Sweet Home, Oregon, United States. The event was founded in 1992 as an economic development project for the Sweet Home community.[1] In addition to funding economic development activities, profits from the festival help support community humanitarian projects.[2] The festival site is located on a large field south of Sweet Home High School. The venue extends across the Weddle Covered Bridge to Sankey Park. Recent attendance has exceeded 13,000 people per day.[3]
Past performers include Kenny Chesney, Montgomery Gentry, Faith Hill, Toby Keith, Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, and Keith Urban.[4][5][6][7]
