Thursday Night Out

Thursday weekly concerts on Arboretum Lawn offer a relaxing summer escape with song, food, and drink. A diverse music lineup provides the soundtrack while guests savor seasonal beers, specialty cocktails, and irresistible bites from the city’s favorite food trucks and Perenn at Cheekwood.

Enjoy a Thursday Night Out of live music while exploring Cheekwood’s beautiful gardens and this year’s blockbuster exhibition, America the Beautiful: National Parks & Landmarks by Rail. These ticketed concerts are popular, so reserve your spot early and bring your family and friends out to enjoy a lovely evening.

Special ticketed event. Magnolia Society Level Members and above can contact the Membership Department for help with reserving free tickets to Thursday Night Out.

Reserving a timed-entry ticket in advance is required for all guests. During busy seasons and events, Cheekwood may reach parking capacity. If parking capacity is reached, walk-up tickets will only be available for those utilizing rideshare services.
