Short version: Reddit users in r/shakyknees are celebrating after a Mumford & Sons North America tour poster surfaced showing an Atlanta date in early August — a move that appears to pull them off the festival’s rumored bill.
What happened
– A tour poster for Mumford & Sons’ “Prizefighter” North America run lists an Atlanta stop on 8/4. That date conflicts with the headliner chatter around the festival, and fans took the poster as confirmation they’re out of the local lineup.
Fan reaction (from the thread)
– “Calm down? This calls for celebration” — KlutzyAd4951
– “Thank god!!!” — Joeybeer81
– “Thank fuck.” — amcannally
– “Now just eliminate 21 Pilots and I’ll be a happy man” — Ridespacemountain25
Why it matters
If a touring artist books a full North American run that includes an Atlanta show near festival season, it often means they won’t be available for the same-city festival — especially when dates or routing overlap. For festival-goers who weren’t thrilled about Mumford & Sons as a possible headliner, the news is getting a warm reception.
Quick takeaways
– The poster lists Atlanta on 8/4 as part of the tour; fans are interpreting that as confirmation Mumford & Sons won’t play the festival.
– Social chatter on r/shakyknees skewed celebratory — a reminder that lineup rumors can divide a scene.
