Festival Season Hits Atlanta

Wednesday May 1, 2013

By Susan Finch

Springtime means festival season in Atlanta is in full swing. From wine events to live music, you can't stumble out of your hotel without running into a parade or crafts booth.

May brings all of the city's old favorites like the Atlanta Food and Wine Event and Jazz Fest. But it's also opening its doors to new celebrations like the Shaky Knees Music Festival in the historic Old Fourth Ward.

The event was created to bring Atlanta "the world's best musician and artists" with acts like The Lumnineers, Band of Horses, Drive By Truckers and more.

Local food and craft beers will also be available. Nothing washes down a music festival like craft beer!
