State Farm Arena, Wed Mar 4 & Thu Mar 5, 2026

Gaga brings her arena spectacle back to Atlanta for a two-night run at State Farm Arena, built for big-room theatrics, maximal production, and wall-to-wall sing-alongs. Gagaʼs arena performances are as much performance art as a concert, turning the night into a shared, high-energy experience that leans heavily into fan participation and sing-along moments. Gaga demand moves fast, especially for the lower bowl and floor. Buy early while sections are still balanced. If youʼre flexible and just want to be in the building, keep an eye on resale as the dates get closer. Upper levels often loosen first while premium tiers stay firm.

Fox Theatre, Tue Mar 31, 2026

This touring production brings the TV showʼs biggest strengths to a classic Atlanta room: fast-paced choreography, tight lighting cues, big group numbers, and that live competition energy. Expect a polished, family-friendly night with a mix of standout routines, crowd-pleasing favorites, and plenty of showmanship that plays especially well at the Fox.

If youʼre going for the full spectacle, prioritize lower orchestra or front mezz for the best view of formations and footwork. The balcony can still be great if you mainly want the atmosphere and the music.

Truist Park, Fri May 8, Sat May 9 & Sun May 10, 2026

The Bananas turn baseball into a full-blown show with fast pace, nonstop antics, choreographed moments, and crowd participation that makes this feel closer to a live comedy event than a traditional game. A three-day run at Truist Park gives you options, but demand usually concentrates around the most convenient night (Saturday) and the best group hang sections. If you want the peak atmosphere,

Saturday night is the play. If you care more about value and seat choice, Friday and Sunday often offer better flexibility while still delivering the full Bananas experience.

Chastain Park Amphitheatre opened in June 1944 as the North Fulton Park Amphitheatre, after Fulton County Commissioner Troy Green Chastain decided late in the parkʼs development to add an outdoor music venue. Because it was an afterthought, the amphitheaterʼs design stayed simple, with bench-style seating and minimal décor, a look that still defines the venue today. After Chastain died in 1946, the amphitheater was renamed in his honor, and the City of Atlanta took over in 1952, later using the space for free Atlanta Pops concerts and an opera series that ran for years.

The 1996 Olympics didnʼt just bring a two-week party to Atlanta. It created (and concentrated) the physical event spine that still anchors downtown. Centennial Olympic Park was built by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games as part of the cityʼs Olympics infrastructure improvements, completed in time for the July 1996 Games, and then redesigned for everyday public use after the Games. Itʼs widely credited as the permanent legacy of the Olympics and as a catalyst for the surrounding tourism district.

That same Olympic deadline also revived buildings for entertainment, right on the Parkʼs edge. The clearest example is The Tabernacle: opened as a church in 1911, sold in 1994, and intentionally redeveloped to serve the Olympics, operating briefly as a House of Blues during the 1996 Games before evolving into the concert hall Atlanta knows today.

Finally, the Games hardwired downtown Atlanta for a multi-event scale. The Georgia Dome (opened 1992) hosted Olympic events in 1996 and was already staging major concerts and large-format entertainment, reinforcing downtownʼs ability to book big-ticket nights. And the main Olympic Stadium was purpose-built to be converted after the Games, reborn as Turner Field for the Braves, showing how Atlanta planned for post-Olympic reuse rather than one-off construction.

Today, you can still see the Olympic footprint in how downtown books and moves crowds. Atlanta didnʼt just host the Games; it used them to build a downtown that could keep selling out long after the torch went out.

Heading to a show at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre? Make Downtown Alpharetta your pre-show base. Start with dinner at Mercantile Social at 20 N Main St, Alpharetta. Then take a short walk to Currahee Brewing Company at 25 S Main St for a quick pre-show beer before you head over.
