What's On in Atlanta Georgia

 

The 36th Annual Inman Park Spring Festival and Tour of Homes will take place Saturday and Sunday, April 28 and 29, 2007. The festival is multi-faceted, featuring the fabled Tour of Homes, an Arts & Crafts juried show, a Street Market including Antiques, a Dance Festival and continuous entertainment both days!

During the last full weekend in April each year, Inman Park proudly presents a neighborhood festival widely regarded as Atlanta’s most spirited and eclectic. Highlights include:

  • Atlanta’s biggest Street Market, offering everything from antique furniture to handcrafted wares.
  • A juried Arts and Crafts Show featuring some of the Southeast’s finest artists.
  • The city’s quirkiest and most colorful Parade, led by the Inman Park Butterfly followed by floats, bands, art cars, politicians, drill teams, the Seed and Feed Marching Abominable Band, clowns, jugglers, and many more. The parade ends with the appearance of the Inman Park Trash Monarch, perched atop the throne-a street sweeper.
  • The Festival centerpiece, the Tour of Homes, featuring turn-of-the-century Victorian Painted Ladies and Craftsman bungalows as well as original contemporary designs and loft conversions.
  • Live entertainment, including rock-n-roll, blues, swing, jazz, folk, Western, and beyond.
  • A Dance Festival that showcases some of Atlanta’s best ballet and modern dance companies.
  • Children’s Activities—with a giant slide, cool obstacle course, relays and more.
  • A wide variety of food and beverages on sale throughout the Festival.
