Atlanta United kicked off Memorial Day Weekend with a concert at Center Stage in downtown Atlanta opened by DJ Swiff, headlined by Mike WiLL Made-It and some special guests as a part of MLS Summer Beat, an initiative driven by the league and its clubs to celebrate the connection between music and soccer.
DJ Swiff, one of the renowned members of Atlanta's own hip-hop group OutKast took the stage to get the night started and later, made way for Producer Mike WiLL Made-It to step into the spotlight.
Mike WiLL Made-It brought with him a number of Atlanta based artists including Eearz, Two-9 and Waka Flocka Flame who all made guest appearances.
It's a party in the ATL!

At one point in the night, Eearz and Waka Flocka launched themselves into the crowd holding up five-striped flags with Waka sporting the Atlanta United secondary kit.
It was certainly a party in the ATL.
