The Yacht Rock Holiday Special is not just a concert — it is an Atlanta institution. Every December, Yacht Rock Revue transforms the Coca-Cola Roxy into a wonderland of smooth grooves, holiday kitsch, and pure communal joy.

That kind of loyalty does not happen by accident.

Everything You Need to Know About Yacht Rock Revue
Yacht Rock Revue is an Atlanta original. Formed in the city and deeply embedded in its music culture, the band built its reputation celebrating the smooth, sophisticated soft rock of the 1970s and early 1980s — the era of Christopher Cross, Michael McDonald, Hall & Oates, Steely Dan, and Kenny Loggins. What started as a loving, tongue-in-cheek tribute evolved into one of the most celebrated live acts in the Southeast, earning national recognition and a devoted fanbase that stretches far beyond Georgia.
The band's command of their source material is total. They do not simply cover songs — they inhabit them, delivering performances that are simultaneously reverent and wildly entertaining. The Holiday Special format takes that energy and turns it up further, layering in seasonal theatrics, original holiday arrangements, and the kind of anything-can-happen atmosphere that keeps audiences talking for weeks.
For Yacht Rock Revue Atlanta fans, the Holiday Special represents the band at its most celebratory. It is a hometown victory lap wrapped in tinsel, and the Coca-Cola Roxy — with its excellent sightlines, superior sound system, and spacious floor — gives every fan the full experience.
