ATLANTA -After a year absence Music Midtown returns this weekend to Piedmont Park.
The event was cancelled last year following the passage of Georgia’s concealed carry gun law. Over 50 thousand people attended the event in 2021, and similar crowds are expected this year.

The lineup is strong with P!nk and Flume headlining Friday. Billie Eilish and The 1975 will headline Saturday and iconic rock band Guns N’ Roses will headline Sunday.
Other acts in attendance include Pitbull, Niall Horan, Incubus, Tove Lo, Lil Baby and more.
