Hi i’ve seen people on other festival threads make rumor / speculation list and I thought we should start one !!! I would say a good add would be Kacey Musgraves bc she’s skipping ATL on her tour 👀 what’s y’all’s thoughts!
Predicted dates for the festival .... purely speculation here but after looking at the Piedmont park schedule for September - the weekend of 9/13-15 is wide open with nothing scheduled. Safe assumption that the festival will be this weekend? https://piedmontpark.org/calendar/month/2024-09/
All of these that were mentioned will be at Bonnaroo the middle of June or May's Shakey Knees: Dominic Fike, RHCP, Weezer. Renee Rapp...
Is RHCP is really possible 3 months after Roo? 🤔
It would be fairly epic for Midtown to secure Lana Del Ray, Dua Lipa, Eddie Veder.
Our wish list so far:
Dua lipa
Tate McRae
Two door cinema club
Raye
Labyrinth
SZA
Hozier
Benson Boone - out he is in ATL later
Kesha
Sabrina Carpenter
Conan gray -out I think
Louis Tomlinson
Good boy Daisy
Matt Hansen
Billie Eilish- yessss , love Billie, send unlikely 2x
Dylan
Natalie Jane
Pierce the veil
Deftones
Boywithyuke
Alkaline trio
Knocked loose
With all the news coming out that promoters are booking acts for like 5 festivals at once for an agreed upon sum (and this would track with MM last year), it makes me think of Lana, Jelly Roll, odesza, foo fighters, rhcp, Fred again.
I would personally be very surprised if there’s anyone I like on the lineup, the way the festival drops are going this year.
Fred is a Bonnaroo exclusive, Foos playing Shaky. I thought I thought Jelly Roll was out but his tour is routed for this perfectly if it’s 14-16. Lana Odesza RHCP are all good calls. Would wager one or two on your list headline.
future & metro don't have any dates in the fall could see them being an headliner with kacey who i think is a lock since her tour isn't hitting atlanta and she has an gap between september 15th and 19th
Ah yeah and they have the dates open. The routing and timing would be weird though because they would have almost an entire week off and would go NC > FL > TX > MO > ATL but weirder things have happened.
and they play a fest in alabama later september, and skip atl on the summer tour, and played MM 2017 without tom in the band, and they’re a bigger draw now than ever.
Yep and the Alabama festival and their date in South Carolina are both 90+ miles from Atlanta so they’re good on that proximity rule. In 2017 they just headlined the second largest stage so if they do this year it’ll definitely be the biggest stage
Let’s hope midtown doesn’t make the tickets a ridiculous amount only to half them again, all i know
Yeah, that was a wild business decision. I understand driving a crowd / turnout but it was wild to witness.

Head to Bonnaroo mid June
Lana Del Rey for sure headlining this year.
I hope so!

Yeah good catch. October has that big gap at the end too which I imagine is for One Music Fest. Everything else is occupied.
If it’s 20-22nd, Pearl Jam’s tour lines up with it, no ATL date. I think Kacey is out looking at her dates
As much as I'd love Pearl Jam, they're a super expensive act to get. RHCP is the more likely outcome for a "rock" act.
Eh so is GNR and Billie. I would bet RHCP and Pearl Jam are the same ballpark price wise.
While that might be true, they have also neglected Atlanta tour stops over the years. Would be massive if they do come though!
didn’t think abt that 😞
no conan gray, he's coming to atl 10/5
a day to remember likely! skipping atlanta on their tour
Book a good EDM act for once
I agree
twenty one pilots are out conflicting tour dates
After last years terrible attendance and now Imagine dropping out, I wonder if it will even happen this year.
I feel like it definitely will with the starting this whole 3 day thing

Possible: Bleachers

I would say probably rhcp but not foo bc they’re doing shaky knees

Jelly roll is already touring to atl unfortunately
Guys weezer skipped georgia on their tour and is playing in nashville the days around music midtown… i’m wondering
they're playing shaky knees
sabrina carpenter maybe? she's doing a fest in ny + coachella
no other dates
I pray for sabrina… but I really don’t think so
yeah thats why im going to ny to see her
Dream would be to get Odesza, since they seem a little open to extending their farewell tour. Some Dua Lipa would't hurt either.
renee rapp?
She’s doing Coachella and Bonaroo so I wouldn’t be surprised. MM had Fletcher last year which is a similar LGBTQ+ artist.
Would be shocked if she’s not on this
future & metro don't have any dates in the fall could see them being an headliner with kacey who i think is a lock since her tour isn't hitting atlanta and she has an gap between september 15th and 19th
don’t ask how I know but it’s not future and metro 😞
It won't be returning in 2024, it's done
what do you know
IM SCARED
i’m crying how did you know
Could Imagine Dragons possibly be coming? They aren't stopping in Atlanta on their new tour.
Ah yeah and they have the dates open. The routing and timing would be weird though because they would have almost an entire week off and would go NC > FL > TX > MO > ATL but weirder things have happened.
I'm gonna add Vance Joy to the possibilities.
Blink-182 is announcing is a number of festival shows rn 🤔
