Best events in
Canton

There is plenty to discover when it comes to events and things to do in Canton, GA. The local scene is often understood through its 'four rooms,' ranging from large outdoor concerts at Etowah River Park to seated performances at the Historic Canton Theatre. This variety means that a great outing can be a downtown block party, a casual brewery gathering at The Mill on Etowah, or an open mic night.

Downtown Canton's walkable Main Street creates a perfect setting for an evening, where dinner can lead directly into a show at the Historic Canton Theatre or a First Fridays block party.
The Mill on Etowah offers a different pace, with regular trivia nights, live bands, and free line dancing lessons at Reformation Brewery.
Large-scale outdoor entertainment takes center stage at Etowah River Park, host to the River Rock Concert Series during the warmer months.
