Just Appeared: Fresh shows & events pulled straight from the hat

AC/DC - Power Up Tour 2026

Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Thu Aug 27, 2026

High-voltage rock returns to Atlanta. Expect Brian Johnson’s thunderous vocals, Angus Young’s duck-walk guitar heroics, and a stadium-scale production built for cannons, pyro, and 50,000 people shouting every riff. This date is part of the newly announced 2026 North American leg. There are no presales for this event. General on-sale begins Fri, Nov 7, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Sting - 3.0 Tour

Expect “Every Breath You Take,” “Englishman in New York,” “Fields of Gold,” and deeper cuts delivered in a tight, band-forward mix. Fan Club presale is November 4th. Public Tickets go on sale Fri, Nov 7.

Maroon 5 - Love Is Like Tour

State Farm Arena, Tue Nov 11

Maroon 5 returns to Atlanta for a polished, hit-packed show led by Adam Levineʼs signature vocals and a band at the top of its game. Expect fan favorites like “Sugar,ˮ “Memories,ˮ and “This Loveˮ alongside new tracks from their latest era. Slick production, arena energy, and sing-alongs that stretch the night make this one a sell-out waiting to happen.

A lot of tickets are left on the Primary market (unsold tickets), but brokers are selling these under face value on other sites. It is highly recommended to buy resale tickets for this vs Primary tickets.

For example, Primary has Sec 111 at $165+, but comparable resale in Sec 110/112 is around $121.

$$$ Sharecare Social Club (T18–T26): all-inclusive, best comfort/value combo for premium

$$ Rear 100s (111–115): strong views, no add-ons

$ Section 221/upper 200s: more Monday/Tue-style availability; face-value options under $100

Invesco QQQ Atlanta Gridiron Classic - Georgia Tech vs Georgia

Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Fri Nov 28, 2025

Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate on the big stage. Expect a split crowd, rivalry-level noise, and TV-tight pacing under the roof at MBS. General on-sale is active on Ticketmaster. This event is selling very fast and looks like it will have massive playoff implications. This game is being played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium rather than Bobby Dodd. There are some primary tickets available, but they are limited on Ticketmaster. If you are looking for better tickets, you may want to look at Stubhub

Did you Know?

Before he was a multiplatinum rapper and actor, Christopher “Ludacrisˮ Bridges worked on Atlanta radio as Hot 97.5ʼs on-air personality “Chris Lova Lova.ˮ He started as an intern, earned a regular DJ slot, and built a local following that connected him to producers and label executives. That radio run led to early features like “Phat Rabbitˮ and set the stage for his breakout albums. Itʼs the proof that Atlantaʼs airwaves have long been a launchpad for global hip- hop careers.

Presales, Resales, and Dynamic Pricing

Atlantaʼs live event scene thrives on demand, and ticket prices shift just as fast. For major concerts and games, presales (Artist, Venue, Bank-Partner, or Ticketmaster) give early access and better seat selection, but not necessarily lower prices. Once tickets are on sale, market-based pricing can raise or lower prices with demand. Ticketmaster now displays all-in pricing to improve transparency. On the secondary market, Ticketmasterʼs Verified Resale transfers tickets to your name, but prices can sit above face value, especially for premium seats at high-demand shows. For deals, monitor resales, compare primary vs. resale, and know that last-minute dips often appear on resale for some events (with the risk of missing out). Buying through official channels helps avoid scams and surprise markups.

Pre-Show Plan

Catching a show at The Eastern? Head over to Muchacho (904 Memorial Dr SE), a vibrant, retro-leaning spot known for tacos, burritos, and cocktails. Go for a Baja Fish or Al Pastor taco, or a breakfast burrito if youʼre early, and pair it with a margarita or another tequila/mezcal cocktail. Itʼs just a short stroll from The Eastern on Memorial Drive, so itʼs an easy pre-show hang to fuel up and unwind.
