No but I hear it's really fun. I've never been able to go because I always travel over Memorial Day. The Atlanta area has a lot of great neighborhood festivals and downtown Decatur is the perfect place for one.

Parking will be at a premium; if you are not staying in the Decatur area you might want to consider MARTA. Also, there is a parking deck on Trinity Ave. behind the Dekalb County Courthouse that I believe is free on weekends and holidays and is next to all the action.

Rose, I forgot to mention: the aisles are sometimes a little tight for movement in some of the festival areas, so if this would be an issue for you I suggest getting there when it opens.
