The move of The Masquerade to a renovated space at Underground Atlanta will take a few weeks longer than anticipated.

Concerts will continue to be held at the original location on North Avenue until at least Nov 4. In September, venue management had a projected date of late October to move to Kenny's Alley, adjacent to Underground Atlanta downtown.

The temporary relocation of The Masquerade, a treasure to rock and punk fans since the early '90s, was prompted by a recent lawsuit to prevent the venue from moving to a new space on westside.
