Who’s going to CounterPoint Music Festival?? Streets of Atlantis will be there in full effect and we’re here to guide you to who to see and why you should attend! Taking place in Atlanta, Georgia from September 27-29, “this 8,000-acre paradise is filled with well-established rolling pastures, lakes, and woodlands that run 12 miles along the Chattahoochee River and will play host to multiple stages, art installations and a variety of other activities.” Whether you’re driving in with a crew or taking the bus and meeting your party, CounterPoint is worth every penny; and there are options. Do you love the outdoors and regularly attend festivals? This festival is a beautiful location for camping out, whether you’ve got a tent, tarp, or RV. We know a lot of folks aren’t into the whole outdoor camping experience and just want to catch the live music and sleep in a hotel with a quality shower,  room service, a pool, and air conditioning. CounterPoint has got you covered and offers a few different options for that too. Consider It Dan (CID) has put together hotel & shuttle packages with ‘reliable transportation’ included, to and from CounterPoint. Packages include accommodations at the Marriott Atlanta Airport and come with or without GA, VIP, or Platinum tickets to the festival. Also, do you need a ride to the festival? CounterPoint provides both short and long distance shuttles.

Art will be everywhere! Local artists and art schools will have displays all over the campground, stages and more. There will be an ‘Arts Village‘ with artists, vendors, and fans  selling and displaying their art, crafts, and merchandise; don’t forget to stroll through and check out the diverse and unique creations from, but not limited to, organic hand-made clothing to wire wrapped metaphysical crystals and gems to original hand-blown glass.

Now that we’ve given you an overview, we arrive at the best part: the lineup. CounterPoint has a stacked lineup that speaks for itself. Check out the lineup on the poster below, listing all of the artists performing, a diverse group of EDM producers and DJ’s. Under the poster, we present an ‘artist spotlight’, the top 10 artists performing at CounterPoint that Streets of Atlantis recommend that you do not miss!
