Arts & Events

Meet a few of the leading ladies in Atlanta's music scene, including Tree Sound Studios COO Mali Hunter, Recording Academy executive Michele Caplinger, Press Reset founder and industry veteran Shanti Das, 6lack's manager Diamond Peebles, 21 Savage co-manager Kei Henderson, and more.

Help the revitalization of historic Sweet Auburn at the Sweet Auburn Gala, nerd out with classic games at the Southern-Fried Gaming Expo, or explore the Westside on foot at Atlanta Streets Alive.

Fly in a hot air balloon at the Helen Atlantic Hot Air Balloon Race, float down the Chattahoochee at Duluth's Whatever Floats Your Boat, or stay on land to celebrate all things Southern dining at the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival.

MomoCon started 14 years ago as a tiny event at Georgia Tech. Now the convention draws more than 30,000 attendees and is aimed at a younger audience more focused on anime and video games than its mammoth sister convention, Dragon Con.

Bill Clinton and James Patterson wrote a new book, and the former president is coming to Cobb Energy Centre to discuss it. Also don't miss Horizon Theatre's production of Freaky Friday, Big Boi at the Tabernacle, and your chance to rock out at Oakland Cemetery.

You don't need to be a professional singer to grab the microphone for hard-rock, live-band karaoke with Metalsome at the 10 High, the small club tucked beneath Dark Horse Tavern. A lot of the 20- and 30-somethings who join in are defiantly tone-deaf and rhythmically deficient (perhaps thanks to a PBR or three).

Enjoy the long weekend with the Atlanta Jazz Festival, MomoCon, Six Flags's new ride, the Decatur Arts Festival, the Alpharetta Arts Streetfest, the Georgia Renaissance Festival, and more.

Color ATL’s second edition (the first was a hit in 2016) features works by 42 local artists, including Jeremy Brown, Catlanta, HENSE, and Tiny Doors ATL.

If you've spent any time in Atlanta, you've probably seen a bright turquoise, often square creature with an ever-shifting amount of eyes and a massive set of pearly white teeth staring at you from murals and billboards across town. The character, known as Larry Loudmouf, is the brainchild of street artist Greg Mike, a Connecticut native who has been living in Atlanta for the past 14 years.

The Marquee Club, the new premium lounge at the Fox Theatre, is an Instagram lover's dream. The 10,000-square-foot space features five bars, plush, locally made furniture, and a rooftop patio that gives patrons a nice view of the iconic Fox marquee.
