An outdoor staple in the city for more than 30 years, the Fred features tables and fits about 2,350 people.

Although last year’s concert series didn’t do quite as well as 2023, eight of the 15 concerts did sell out, according to Stephen Moore, president of RCS Productions, which oversees the Fred’s concert series. “We had a whole new lighting system last year,” he said. “They’re upgrading the audio this year. We love that the city [which owns the Fred] continues to invest in the venue.”

He noted that the amphitheater is trying a Christian band for the first time with the Newsboys and believes Tritt, as a hometown artist, should do well.

“It’s always competitive in Atlanta to get talent to come,” Moore said. “You have to put two or three offers out to get one act to commit.”
