The 41st annual Inman Park Festival will celebrate more than four decades of art, merriment, food and wacky parades on Saturday, April 28, from 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Sunday, April 29, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
This year’s parade – with floats, bands, local nonprofits and residents – will be on Saturday and steps-off at 2 p.m. (rain or shine) from near Krog Street and continues up Edgewood and Euclid to Austin Avenue. There will also be two days of live music on three stages, a Kidzone at Springvale Park, a dance festival at the Trolley Barn and food of all kinds from local restaurants.
The 2012 Tour Of Homes celebrates its 41st year as part of the festival. The tour will feature 11 homes and points of interest in the community. Homes featured this year include those with Victorian, Gothic, Craftsman-style bungalows, modern lofts and a tour of The Wrecking Bar on Moreland Avenue. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased online at inmanparkfestival.org or at the sales booth located at the intersection of Euclid Avenue and Elizabeth Street during the festival. Tour hours are noon to 4 p.m. on Friday and noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
Parking for the festival will be nearly nonexistent, so visitors are strongly encouraged to take Marta to the Inman Park station, bike or walk to the festival. For more, visit inmanparkfestival.org.
