Come mid-September, Atlanta’s most dedicated music fans will make their way to Piedmont Park—and for good reason. The city’s preeminent outdoor destination is home to our most prominent music festival—Music Midtown. For two days and with four stages, music fans will be energetic spectators of 30 popular musical acts, such as headliner Imagine Dragons, Grammy-winning rap artist Kendrick Lamar, hip-hop act Post Malone, rock band Fall Out Boy, and Atlanta’s own Janelle Monáe. AJC music reporter Melissa Ruggieri chats with the festival’s eminent producer, Live Nation President Peter Conlon, about Atlanta’s most diverse, eclectic, and prominent music event. Plus, host Shane Harrison shares things to do during the next 10 days, including the Fall Folklife Festival at the Atlanta History Center.
