The Coca-Cola Roxy is a concert venue located in The Battery Atlanta in Cumberland, Georgia. Named after the old Roxy Theatre, the venue opened in April 2017.

History

[edit]

On July 16, 2015, the Atlanta Braves and concert promoter Live Nation Entertainment announced a deal to develop and manage the long-planned entertainment venue adjacent to Truist Park. Named in homage to the old Roxy Theatre that was torn down in 1972, the venue was announced to have standing-room-only capacity for 4,000 and feature about 40 music and comic shows annually, was designed to help drive activity to the site on non-gamedays, and planned to host special events.[1]

The Coca-Coca Roxy officially opened on April 8, 2017, with Radio 105.7's 4th Birthday Bash featuring Glass Animals.[2]

Layout

[edit]

The 53,000 square feet (4,900 m2) theater consists of two tiers. The floor area is flat, unlike similar venues, such as the Tabernacle, that slope upward. Upstairs is a permanent seating area that consists of 800 seats. There are four public bars in the venue, with a fifth located in the VIP room.[3]
