5 must-see concerts in Atlanta this week
What better day to plan your week than Monday? Well, probably Sunday if you really want a head start but that’s not the point. The point here is that there are a bunch of concerts happening this week and I want to fill you in on some of these must-see shows. Have fun!
Daddy Yankee
Mr. Gasolina himself will be hitting the State Farm Arena stage on Tuesday. The Latin superstar is on his “La Última Vuelta World Tour” and he is definitely bringing the heat to the stage. With more than a decade in the industry, you know the “King of Reggaeton” will put on an amazing show.
Location: Downtown - 1 State Farm Drive; Time: 8 p.m.; Date: Tuesday, Aug. 23; Admission: From $146; Website: events.accessatlanta.com
ODESZA
The electronic music duo might be on “The Last Goodbye Tour” but they are saying hello to Lakewood Amphitheatre! Their list of hits is a long one – including “Love Letter” and “A Moment Apart.” The duo will be bringing Sylvan Esso, Ben Böhmer and Gilligan Moss along for an epic show.
Location: Southeast Atlanta - 2002 Lakewood Way SW; Time: 6:30 p.m.; Date: Tuesday, Aug. 23; Admission: From $49; Website: events.accessatlanta.com
Hoodie Allen
The rapper, singer and songwriter will be making his way to The Loft! I’m hoping he performs some fan favorites like “Call Me Never” or even “Surprise Party.” This should be an entertaining show!
Location: Midtown - 1374 West Peachtree St.; Time: 8 p.m.; Date: Tuesday, Aug. 23; Admission: From $29; Website: events.accessatlanta.com
Big Boi
Don’t miss a chance to see the Atlanta legend take the East Point Downtown Commons stage! One half of the iconic duo Outkast will be performing at “Wind Down In The Point” along with Youngbloodz, Pastor Troy and more.
