In addition to the Beyoncé concerts, K-pop group ATEEZ is performing at State Farm Arena, and the city is also hosting MLB All-Star Weekend events.

From fireworks to crowd control, Beyoncé concerts involve months of planning with public safety teams. Jerome Martin, a now-retired chief with Atlanta Fire Rescue, helped oversee safety planning at major stadium events for more than a decade. For concerts like Beyoncé’s, his work often started months in advance.

ATLANTA — The city of Atlanta is preparing for a surge in visitors as Beyoncé’s tour and MLB’s All-Star Week comes to town.

ATLANTA — Two Beyoncé fans say they were left scrambling for accommodations after a downtown Atlanta hotel abruptly canceled their reservations just days before the singer’s sold-out concert, and then re-listed the rooms online for nearly three times the original price.

If this sounds like the must-see, can’t-miss show of the summer, last-minute tickets are still available for all four Hotlanta ‘Cowboy Carter’ concerts. At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one night was $91 including fees on Vivid Seats.
