6 must-do activities at Atlanta Streets Alive Highland+!

Repeat after us, Atlanta Streets Alive is not a festival. It is not a bike event. Atlanta Streets Alive is so much more.

Atlanta Streets Alive is about celebrating community, activating our streets and re-imagining our public spaces! It's about highlighting local businesses/organizations, fostering civic pride, and getting Atlanta active.

One of the key features of Atlanta Streets Alive are activities to get participants moving, grooving, and making! And our activity partners and business partners help make that happen! At Sunday's Atlanta Streets Alive Highland+, we have activities spread out across the route, but be sure to head to Boulevard Ave., a.k.a. "Activity Row"!

Check out these 6 must-see activities along the route:
