The 2nd Annual Diffie Classic, a two-day golf and music tribute honoring country music legend Joe Diffie, will take place September 21–22, 2026.

The event kicks off Monday, September 21, with a golf tournament at 12 Stones Crossing Golf Club in Goodlettsville, Tennessee. Festivities continue Tuesday, September 22, with a live concert at the Nashville Palace featuring a variety of artists.

Proceeds from this year’s event will benefit First Steps, a Nashville-based organization that was especially meaningful to Diffie and his family. Diffie’s son, Tyler, who has Down syndrome, attended First Steps’ early intervention and child development programs for several years. From 1992 through 2004, Diffie supported the organization by hosting the Country Steps In For First Steps concerts and golf tournaments.
