NBA Youngboy

State Farm Arena, Wed Oct 15th

YoungBoy Never Broke Again debuts the Make America Slime Again Tour in Atlanta, his first headlining run in five years, and coming off a presidential pardon. Heʼs confirmed support from DeeBaby, K3, NoCap, Offset, and others, and has already added extra dates due to demand. Though the tour supports his MASA album (released July 2025), early reviews say his set leans heavily into his broader catalog. With 45 dates nationwide, this might be one of the few chances to see YB in an arena dimension amid growing production scale.

Did You Know?

Before it became a music hotspot, The Tabernacle in downtown Atlanta was a Baptist church built in 1910. It hosted services for more than 80 years before being converted into a music venue during the 1996 Olympics. Since then, it has welcomed everyone from Johnny Cash to Bob Dylan, earning a reputation as one of the best mid-sized venues in the country.

Deep Dive

The Future of Atlanta Venues

Atlantaʼs concert landscape has expanded beyond historic pillars like The Tabernacle and The Fox with new mid-size venues filling a crucial gap between intimate clubs and massive arenas. Coca-Cola Roxy opened in 2017 with a capacity of 3,600 and state-of-the-art production, while The Eastern followed in 2021 with space for 2,300, premium acoustics, and a rooftop stage. These venues, often hosting more than 150 shows a year, provide the sweet spot for artists who are too big for small rooms but not large enough for arenas. By offering flexible staging and strong fan experiences at a viable scale, they ensure Atlanta remains a must-stop city and broaden the range of tours coming through townr.

Pre-Show Plan

Heading to Variety Playhouse? Consider grabbing tacos or a margarita at El Tesoro in Edgewood before or after the show. Itʼs a popular local Mexican spot not too far away.
