Shaky Beats Festival Will Not Be Returning In 2020

Another festival bites the dust when the Shaky Beats Festival in Atlanta started today on social media to announce that it will not host a copy in 2020.


Shaky Beats Festival, which has been a staple of the Atlanta festival scene since its debut in 2016, has become a fun weekend for everyone who attended in May of each year. Filling the void that TomorrowWorld and Counterpoint had left the scene in Georgia, it became an appropriate event for many looking to get a dose of dance music.

In a surprising announcement today, the organizers of Shaky Beats went to social networks to inform them that the festival would not return in 2020. In a brief message to their accounts, they thanked their fans for attending and dancing over the years, but they did little else why we call it completion.

Originally presented at Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta, Shaky Beats moved to Central Park for its 2018 releases and the final version in 2019. The festival also hosted a group of talented artists that varied in style and size alike. Attendees were able to capture some of the most important names in dance music such as Martin Garrix, Zedd and Kaskade, along with other talented artists ranging from Rufus Du Sol, Lane 8, Boombox Cartel and The Funk Hunters.

The last few years have been particularly difficult for festivals and clubs and we feel sorry when Shaky Beats became another victim. While the organizers identified 2020 in the publication, there was no indication that he would return after a brief pause like Okeechobee.
