A good night was had by all at The Big Night Out, the three-day musical event that brought the best out of Atlanta. Rain inhibited some of the weekend, but the weather was perfect on Sunday, the last night of the event, with sunny skies and cool fall temperatures.

The set up was designed with safety in mind as metal separators were spread out to keep attendees more than 6 feet apart at Centennial Olympic Park.

Atlanta Concert Series Big Night Out Jams Downtown

The Big Night Out featured nightly concerts from these artists:

  • Big Boi feat. Big Grams The Fam
  • Marcus King Trio
  • Moon Taxi

We caught the Big Boi set on Sunday night, and it was a workshop in musicality. He ran through some of his biggest hits with Outkast, including a bumpin’ rendition of So Fresh, So Clean. But it wasn’t all about him.

Big Boi who was accompanied by Sleepy Brown, brought out some of his Dungeon Family compadres, including Goodie Mob as well as some lesser-known artists as well, which had the crowd rocking just the same.

Because of COVID-19, restrictive measures have had to be put in place due to safety protocols. As a result, The Big Night Out is one of Atlanta’s largest socially distanced concerts to date. 

 No matter if you want to catch a comedy club, go out for a night of cocktails and hookah, or go to the club, Atlanta has it all. And if you want to eat in a special place, Atlanta new restaurants continue to pop up every week!
