Lizzo, Cardi B, Billie Eilish, and more took Piedmont Park by storm last weekend

One hundred and eighty-five acres. Four stages. Three dozen music acts. Perhaps just as much sweat as booze—maybe more, considering the sweltering sun.

Atlanta’s annual Music Midtown festival took Piedmont Park by storm this past weekend, and Curbed Atlanta was there to document the rambunctious extravaganza.

Tens of thousands of music fans poured into the city’s premier green space for the two-day bash of rock, pop, hip-hop, and the rest.

The star-studded cast included the likes of Lizzo, Cardi B, Panic! At the Disco, Billie Eilish, Travis Scott, and more.

Peep into the photo spread below to relive the music fest if you attended or experience it vicariously via Curbed if you couldn’t make it.
