Your Fall Playbook

Fall is when Macon comes alive. The summer heat starts to fade, the calendar fills up and there’s no shortage of reasons to visit. Whether you’re cheering from the sidelines, discovering new art, tasting your way through the city or celebrating the sounds and stories that make Macon unique, this season is packed with unforgettable experiences.

So You’re a Fan of Southern Rock?

Long before playlists and streaming made it easy to discover your next favorite band, Macon was a place where musicians gathered, experimented and created something entirely their own.

Movie Set… or Macon?

It's no secret that Hollywood has fallen in love with Macon, but you don't need a film crew or a famous actor to experience the city's cinematic side. Around nearly every corner is a place that feels like it belongs on the big screen — whether it's a towering cathedral, rooftop overlooking downtown or a retrocade straight out of another decade.
