Music fans in Macon can enjoy several performances of "Jane Eyre The Musical", listen to live jazz at the 2026 Jazz & Arts on Riverdale, enjoy the hits of Tony Bennett as performed by the Macon Pops, and much more. Special events like Pasafest 2026 in Buena Vista, the Gum Swamp Jam in Cochran, and Halloween parties in several cities, as well as many other live music shows, ensure the rest of Middle Georgia doesn't miss out on the fun. Music fan Jim Webb has once again been hard at work compiling the following, mostly comprehensive list of live music shows taking place this week in the heart of Georgia.
