About
Operated by Live Nation, the Buckhead Theatre is a historic concert venue hosting touring artists across rock, hip-hop, country, pop, and comedy. It’s earned a Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice award and ranks among Atlanta’s top-rated attractions, with tickets sold through Ticketmaster and an active fall 2026 schedule.
Why go
Buckhead Theatre opened on June 2, 1930, and spent decades operating as the Capri Theatre before reopening under its original name in 2010. Live Nation now runs it as a roughly 1,800-capacity concert hall, one of the few genuinely historic buildings still hosting shows in Buckhead.
