The drought that drove large festivals out of Piedmont Park this year won’t stop Atlanta’s popular street festivals. The annual Inman Park Festival, set for April 26-27, draws a diverse crowd of thousands to the neighborhood of bungalows and small parks just east of Little Five Points.
In addition to mingling in the streets, an artists’ market, and people-watching, the Inman Park Neighborhood Association also presents a dance festival, a tour of homes, a quirky Saturday parade, and live pop, rock, jazz, country and world music bands under a tent on Euclid Avenue, in Delta Park and on Poplar Circle. Gay favorites Elise Witt and Cowboy Envy are among the scheduled musicians.
The streets of Inman Park are closed to through traffic during the festival, and parking is often a problem, so a shuttle bus is available. Information on all of the events and logistics is available on the festival’s website.
