Shaky Knees is the spot for indie and alt-rock lovers who wanna catch some of the best bands in the game.
It happens in Atlanta every spring, turning Central Park into this massive, guitar-fueled weekend with a lineup that always hits—think everything from legacy acts to the buzziest new artists.
If you’re into raw, no-frills live music without the over-the-top production of some other fests, this one’s got your vibe.

It’s got that perfect balance of stacked lineups, chill vibes, and zero FOMO-inducing conflicts (okay, maybe a few, but that’s how you know it’s good).
The crowd is mostly music nerds who actually care about the bands, so the energy is chef’s kiss.
Plus, it’s way less chaotic than some of the bigger festivals—easy to navigate, good food options, and no 100-degree desert suffering required.

Imagine you're you’re standing in a sea of flannels and band tees, sipping on some overpriced but totally worth-it iced coffee, waiting for your favorite band to hit the stage.
The sun’s setting, the crowd is vibing, and suddenly you’re scream-singing the chorus with a bunch of strangers who somehow feel like friends.
Between sets, you hit up a food truck, maybe find a cool spot on the grass to chill, and just soak in the fact that you’re at one of the best indie fests in the country.
What a fantastic way to spend a weekend.
