Atlanta Comes
Alive at Night

When the sun sets, the night heats up across the live music venues, bars, lounges and clubs in Atlanta, and the city known for peaches and Southern charm transforms.

It’s no wonder Atlanta is the capital of hip hop. This is the place for celebrity sightings, top DJs and intimate VIP areas. Elevate your evening at rooftop hotel bars downtown, and treat yourself to delightful, signature cocktails developed by renowned mixologists while live music plays.

Explore Atlanta after dark. You’ll discover secret doors, velvet ropes, comedy shops, cozy outdoor patios, brewpubs, and everything in between.

Follow DJ Kemit as he collects audio samples to produce soulful tracks, including the sounds of bikes on the Beltline, trains and a butcher shop at the Municipal Market (Atlanta’s original food hall circa 1923).
