I had a wonderful time.I wanted to thank everyone who helped make it possible for the concert to happen. I thought Kennesaw was a great little town. I would like to visit again Thank you again for the people who made the concert happen.
How easy is it to find parking?
Somehow I skipped the paragraph. Just found the info.
The site and the Facebook events page is showing Saturday 10/4 for Who’s Bad. However the amphitheater/depot website is showing Friday, 10/03. Which date is correct for Who’s Bad?
Thank you.
Hi Fabi,
G Clef & The Playlist is set to play on Friday, October 3, 2025 at the First Friday Concert Series in downtown Kennesaw, so Who’s Bad is going to be Saturday, October 4, 2025. Who’s Bad will be playing at House of Blues Myrtle Beach on October 3, 2025. We have contacted the Parks & Recreation department and they will be updating the Amphitheater/Depot website with the correct date.
Is there an inclement weather policy that could cancel the event? How is that notification posted?
