Get your rock vibes going, Mariettans, because the Marietta History Center just amped up its game with the announcement of the Classic Rock Jam FUNdraiser for 2025! Get ready for a night where you can shamelessly air guitar to your heart’s content while soaking in some feel-good nostalgia. Guitarist Mark Grundhoefer and a crew of rock heavy-hitters from the local and regional scene are set to bring down the house—or, in this case, Brumby Hall & Gardens.
Set for Saturday, May 10, the event isn’t just an excuse to totally lose yourself in the riffs and solos of rock’s golden eras—it’s a call to muster up community spirit. Profits from the night will go directly back to the Marietta History Center. Those ready to secure their spot can purchase General Admission tickets online for $30. If you want to ensure seats for you and your squad, consider splurging on a $250 table that seats eight. According to the Marietta History Center’s announcement, MHC members can snag a discounted rate, and those flying solo can grab a pass at the door for $35—taxes not included.
We’re told the doors swing open at 7 p.m., so don’t be fashionably late—or you’ll miss the opening acts. It’s an outdoor gig, so rock aficionados are encouraged to bring their best lawn chairs. Need some munchies or a cold one to go with the grooves? Food and drinks will be available for purchase, ensuring your night is as hassle-free as it is memorable.
Brumby Hall & Gardens isn’t your average concert venue. With its unique blend of charm and history, it sets the perfect backdrop for a night celebrating classic rock heritage. If there’s one thing as unpredictable as a live electric guitar solo, it’s the Georgia weather—but the center’s staff is prepared to reach out via email should Mother Nature decide to crash the party. If the skies are clear, though, expect the stage at 472 Powder Springs Street to be rocking.
For those about to rock, we suggest you don't snooze to get your tickets. Check out the Marietta History Center's site or hit them up at [email protected] for the MHC member hook-up. Get ready to make some noise and rock out for a good cause. See you at Brumby Hall & Gardens—where history rocks on.
