A Monumental Celebration of History and Culture

Atlanta proudly hosts the 13th Annual Juneteenth Atlanta Parade and Music Festival, a two-day event dedicated to commemorating Juneteenth—the day marking the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. This festival has become one of the city’s most beloved summer traditions, uniting thousands in celebration of freedom, culture, and community progress.

Music, Vendors, and a Cultural Feast for the Senses

The atmosphere at Piedmont Park will be electric, filled with live performances across two entertainment stages, the soothing scent of burning sage and frankincense, and the hustle of vendors offering hand-crafted goods and mouthwatering cuisine. It’s a sensory celebration where art, food, and music come together to honor history and community.

The Iconic Juneteenth Parade

A highlight of the weekend is the Juneteenth Black History Parade, a televised and vibrant procession that winds through Atlanta’s streets. Expect to see eye-catching floats, high-energy dance troupes, fly-over jets, local youth organizations, marching bands, and appearances from both local and national dignitaries. The parade reflects a unified Georgia, proud of its heritage and hopeful for its future.

Why You Should Attend

Whether you’re joining to honor the past, support local vendors, or enjoy live performances with friends and family, this event offers a space to reflect, learn, and celebrate. Everyone is welcome to participate in this moment of togetherness, growth, and joy.
