The biggest concert of the summer is taking place directly across from 1010 Midtown at Piedmont Park. Sir Paul McCartney, who is known as the most successful musician and composer in pop music history and wrote the most covered song of all time, is the headliner for this year’s Green Concert. It’s pretty unbelievable that this musical genius is lending his talent to help support the Piedmont Park Conservancy, but it says a lot about his character and devotion to the environment.

Needless to say Atlanta has been buzzing with the news since it was announced earlier this week. At the show, you can expect to hear Sir McCartney take you back through all of the songs that helped make him the icon he is today, which includes popular tunes from the Beatles and Wings.

The show is scheduled for August 15th and tickets are only $79.50. This is an incredible bargain considering tickets to see Sir Paul McCartney were selling for hundreds of dollars last time he came through Atlanta. Proceeds from the event go directly to the conservancy and the 53-acre expansion they have planned for the park as well as on-going maintenance.

Sir Paul McCartney coming to Piedmont Park is truly a once in a lifetime experience, and a great example of the extraordinary Atlanta events located within walking distance to 1010 Midtown. Think of how nice it will be for you knowing you don’t have to worry about parking or battling traffic once the concert is over. You don’t have to withstand the crazy MARTA mob that will be rushing the trains once the night comes to an end. These options can easily take away from the prestige of seeing Paul McCartney live in concert, but you can leisurely walk back to your home and reflect on the amazing experience you just had.
