Where at the Nature Center are the concerts? Where should I park?
Concerts are held in the meadow on our new performance area in front of the old fireplace, under the shade of sweetgum and magnolia trees. This location provides easy access to our education center and restrooms and, of course, Wildcat Creek. Enjoy the show at our picnic tables, in our Adirondack chairs, from our back porch deck, or bring your own blanket and chairs and set up wherever you’d like. Parking is available at the Nature Center parking lot and, most conveniently, from directly behind the ball fields of Dunwoody Park. This is a quick 1-minute walk to the venue.
When are the concerts? How long do they last?
The concerts will be held in our newly restored meadow, located just behind our main education building. All of our shows begin at 7:00. We try to wrap up by 9:00, but with this lineup of bands, there’s a chance we’ll be rockin’ a little bit later. Want to get a jump start on the concerts – join us beginning at 6:00 for picnicking, games, and a rotating selection cold craft beer served by Moondog Growlers.
How much does it cost? Do I need a reservation?
Concerts are free to member families (Membership is only $50 per year for a family –
www.dunwoodynature.org/Membership). For non-members, concerts are $5 for adults, $3 for students, and free for children 3 and under. You don’t need to purchase tickets in advance and can pay as you arrive via cash, check, or credit card.
Can I bring the whole family?
Of course! Our concerts this summer feature a diverse group of talented musicians who will be jammin’ in the meadow, but the entire family is always welcome at the Dunwoody Nature Center.
Can I bring my own food?
Absolutely! That’s one of the best things about our concerts. Feel free to pack up the picnic basket and your blankets and beach chairs. This year, we will proudly be serving craft beer specifically chosen for each show by the beer geeks at Moondog Growlers.
