3 Best Day Trips from Atlanta

"The Georgia Theatre is one of the most iconic music venues in the state and one of the places that made Athens a music hub. The downtown building dates to 1889 when it was a YMCA, and has since morphed into a Methodist Church, music store, and Masonic Temple before becoming a music venue in 1977. Come for a live show on the main stage and you'll likely see an up-and-coming musician or an already big name at a value price in an intimate venue—it only holds 1,000 people." - Jennifer Bradley Franklin

Great place to see a show. The venue had plenty of good viewing areas. The rooftop area is perfect if you need a break or get there early. Took a star off for the acoustics. The reverb on the brick structure was a bit much. Earplugs for music are a necessity.

This place is amazing! I attended a concert and the acoustic sound is very good! It's also very small and cozy, giving you that intimate feeling, has two bars on the concert floor, and a rooftop bar as well. There is a holiday Inn express three blocks down, and it only makes a 10 minute walk to your venue! I would definitely recommend this place!

I love seeing shows at this historic venue. It has great acoustics, lights, and good views wherever you stand. It’s a far drive from where I live but absolutely worth it. Some of my best music memories were formed at the Georgia Theater.

Cute classic theatre, sound was great! Holy cow was this place packed though! I’ve never had such a hard time seeing the stage at a venue Update: went to another sold out show about a week later and it was wayyyy more enjoyable/less crowded! Not sure if they somehow oversold for the Flipturn show or what…

This was a great show! We went to see George Clanton, and he was amazing! The lights and fog were very trippy, and it truly made you feel like you were in another world. We arrived early, so we got a spot right in the front, which made everything better. The volumes weren't overbearing, and the whole atmosphere and vibe really made the show for my best friend I so amazing! My best friend is a much bigger fan than I am, and it was amazing to see someone get that hyped for a live performance. The venue itself was spectacular! There was plenty of room for everyone, and while the drinks were high, I made sure to give our waitress a good tip since she was serving the entire show by herself. I would definitely go back if they host another artist one of us would like to see! 5/5 for sure! Check out my other reviews for some truly exceptional places to eat in this area, like Big City Bread Cafe!

My main purpose of posting this review is the Stop Light Observations. If you ever get a chance to see this band do it! Heard a couple songs on Spotify and I liked them but once I saw them live and did a deep dive into the band and their music I have become obsessed. The Georgia theatre was awesome for sure. Beautiful venue, great vibe, well run but Stop Light Observations was what made it a night memories are made for.
