Tune In and Turn Up with Alpharetta’s Live Music Vibes

In Events & Entertainment

During the cozy winter months, a peaceful quiet seems to blanket the world. We tend to appreciate the gentle crackle of a warm fire or revel in the sound of fresh snow crunching underfoot. However, as spring awakens, new sounds emerge. We gain new energy as we hear birds sing, bees buzz, and notice the hum of people getting outside to enjoy the warm weather. Along with these cadences, Alpharetta comes alive to the sound of soul-stirring live music. We’ve missed feeling the rattle of bass in our bones, the thrum of guitar riffs, the kickdrum rumble, the heartbeat of our favorite lyrics belted out to a group of strangers who love the song collectively.

Awesome Alpharetta’s vibrant concert scene is ready for you to tune in and TURN UP! The music has missed you as much as you have missed the music, and now it is time to get together and jam out. Commemorate a return to the melody and magic of live music by visiting these next-level local venues!

Big Vibes at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre

For huge hits and epic energy, Ameris Bank Amphitheatre fits the bill. This 12,000-capacity amphitheater welcomes the 2022 concert season in a major way with chart-toppers like Tim McGraw, The Doobies Brothers, Backstreet Boys, Chicago, Jack Johnson, Rod Stewart, and so many more! Gorgeous greenery, awesome acoustics, and the acts you’ve always wanted to see ensure you have the concert experience of your dreams.

Unforgettable Al Fresco Sets with Home by Dark

The Home by Dark Concert Series has always embodied the belief that a song can change your life. Now, the beloved music experience offers two distinct ways to get lost in the stories and songs that sing to the depths of your soul. The Home by Dark at Brooke Street Park Concert Series, a free favorite for live music lovers, returns for select Saturdays in 2022 during the warm weather months. Head to the East Lawn behind City Hall with a blanket and a picnic in tow to immerse yourself in an evening of beautiful music and behind-the-music tales you truly must hear to believe! For those determined to lock down the best seat possible, the inaugural year of Home by Dark Concerts at Union Hill Park will hit all the right notes. From May through October, this one-of-a-kind live music experience offers serious fans premium table seating under a lovely, covered pavilion surrounded by Union Park’s picturesque trees to make certain the vibes and views are just right.

Next-Level Listening at Avalon Nights Live

As if we didn’t love Fridays enough already, from April 8 through October 21, Avalon Nights Live! gives us one more reason to TGIF. This free live music event comes in hot all summer long at Avalon’s Plaza. All you’ll need is your tailgate chair, your favorite beverage from the surrounding restaurants/bars (we do LOVE an entertainment district!), and a taste for great tunes. Shake off the conference calls and carpool lines in lieu of groove-inducing guitar licks and euphonious vocals. After all, you deserve to relax with an awesome soundtrack!
