As previously reported, the 2022 edition of Music Midtown was canceled following a 2019 Georgia Supreme Court ruling that made it less difficult to bring firearms to public assets like Piedmont Park.
The festival produced through Live Nation did not specify the reason for the cancellation at the time, however, local media showed the war behind the scenes to explain whether Music Midtown organizers had leeway to ban guns at the site ahead of 2019. closing. A source told SPIN that organizers had also been elsewhere but had not been able to locate one in time to move forward this year.
The 2019 ruling placed new restrictions on whether corporations can simply ban guns on public lands, following a 2014 lawsuit through a Georgia gun rights organization involving one of its members who denied access to the Atlanta Botanical Garden with a handgun.
The factor was additional through other application criteria according to the types of rents that companies had to operate on Crown-owned land. In the case of a festival like Music Midtown, many artist contracts specify that they will refuse to perform at venues where national gun laws allow attendees to bring weapons into the venue, creating an untenable scenario for organizers.
