The Shaky Knees Music Festival and Shaky Beats Music Festival will both return to Centennial Olympic Park in 2017.

Shaky Beats, which debuted this year with a lineup focused on EDM, hip-hop and indie dance, will take place May 5-7.

Shaky Knees, which celebrates its fifth year in 2017, will remain at the park for the second consecutive year – the first time the event is staying put. The indie-rock event, which drew more than 50,000 people during its three-day takeover in May with headliners including Jane's Addiction, My Morning Jacket and The 1975, will be held May 12-14, 2017.
