When coming here I recommend parking in front of the First Baptist Smyna church. Parking is completely free. This is our second year coming here, this year was better than last here. There was a huge turn out this year as viewers can see from the pictures, the weather turned out to be completely beautiful and there was such a great selection of food. The Taste of Smyna is a free event to visit and guests can walk along Village Green Circle and try out samples from over 30 restaurants, each sample ranges anywhere from 1 to 4 dollars. They had live music from the Scott Thompson Band this year. For kids, they have plenty of activities, the Atlanta Braves had a tent setup for young kids to practice hitting a ball (3 times) and afterwards they could get their face painted by a local airbrush artist with different brave logos. They also had a great selection of blowup houses for kids to jump around, slides, rock climbing, bungee cord lift (goes about 20 feet) and they had this really cool thing where kids are put into a huge ball, it is filled with air and then they float around inside a pool like environment. Checkout the pictures so you know get a better idea. What is also cool about this festival is that the festival sponsor gives out awards to one restaurant for four categories; this includes the best Entree, Dessert, Decorated Booth and Food Presentation. There are also gift giveaways and free balloons for kids. I am very impressed with the way Jrm Management Services puts on this event, they also run the tastes of Forsyth/Kennesaw/Acworth. Even though this year was extremely crowded, there was still plenty of room to get around. This is definitely a food festival that is worth checking out and that is coming from someone who drove 50 miles one way to come to The Taste of Smyna. I highly recommend this festival.

Parking was free and I feel the organizers did a great job with the setup of everything. I will be going back next year, because I absolutely enjoyed this event

It's also conveniently right off the crosswalk from the Inman Park MARTA station - don't bother looking for parking as there is very little. You can also walk to the festival using the Beltline. The vendors are mostly craft and include original art, pottery, handmade bags, the list is huge. There's also plenty of food vendors for even the picky eater. Make sure to bring plenty of filtered water or stick with beer. This is a must-attend show.

(#publictransportation, ahem!) Since the 1970's, The Inman Park Festival is something of an Atlanta tradition. There's a tour of homes, a 5k run, a parade, and (of course) a big street market featuring all sorts of colorful, local arts and crafts, beauty & skin care, foods and spices, home accessories, woodworking and ceramics... This year, I picked up a few items to gift to my friends. There are hosts of things to try and do, including activities for kids, and a really cool Dance Festival where you'll see stellar dance expositions from Atlanta's best dance companies. The food scene is pretty much what you'd expect. All the standard offerings from frozen lemonade to corn dogs, funnel cakes to pretzels, all the "regulars" are there. Sometimes I wonder if there will ever be a way to make the street-fair food scene innovative and not just regular. Still, this is among Atlanta's best run, and well-organized Festivals. See you there next year.

It's amazing how many different artists are here. At least 200 tents set up along the concrete pathways of the park. Jewelry, paintings, sculptures, each one completely unique. I saw some neat wrist straps made from machine badges, sculptures made with lunch boxes, glass works that looked so beautifully delicate, amber necklaces and bracelets, coffee cups and mugs mde from clay, landscapes and portraits. One artist's format uses insects (not actual insects, reproductions) and the beautiful purple butterflies fill a 3-foot by 5-foot picture frame. That one was for sale for $5000! Food vendors included barbecue, pineapple drinks, noodles, turkey legs, Ben & Jerry's, chicken strips and "meat on a stick." Credit card payments accepted. The festival is free to enter and there was some security. An Atlanta police officer idled by on his motorcycle a couple of times. It started off crowded and then the rain seemed to chase a few people away but by early afternoon, the crowds were back. We parked on a side street in a completely legal space. Free. There is paid parking nearby. Note that pets are NOT allowed in the park during the festival and Atlanta regulations prohibit smoking in the park, too.

For $35, you get unlimited wine tastings, a little bit of food and some great music. With your ticket, you get a plate and a glass and you get to peruse the 10 tables, each of which has 6 to 10 wines to try. Between the tables there are some sponsors, plus the shops are open throughout the marketplace. With your ticket, you get 3 raffle tickets which double as food coupons. My only complaint is that the food offerings were minimal. Three vendors were there with food - an Italian food vendor (I don't remember their name) with pizza and bruschetta, Moe's Southwest Grill with chips and salsa and Atkins Park Tavern with fried green tomatoes with pimento cheese - this was the winner! They raffled off some fun prizes and the event overall was quite lovely. I would say that in the future they should block off the main street of the marketplace from auto traffic as it caused a few issues - it would certainly make for a better event in the future.

However, you will have a lovely time trying as many wines as you could possibly taste in 3 hours. This year, they had 86 different wines at 14 different tables. I'm pretty familiar with California wines but not so much with European or South American wines, so it was fun to use this event to learn about and try some of these other wines. Most tables were a mix of different white and red wines from a variety of locations, although there were a few tables that had wines entirely from "Spain," "South Africa," or "California," which was fun. I was surprised there was lots of bubbly, too -- always fun to have sparkling wine! I loved that they gave out a flyer with a map of all the tables and the wines found at each table. The price of all the wines was also listed there. We started with the expensive wines first, but this booklet was also helpful because The Wine Cellars (the host) had all the wines available for sale so we stopped by afterwards to pick up our favorites. I also used the flyer to keep track of our ratings of the wines and which we had tasted. Expect a generous tasting pour -- 1/5 or 1/6 of a wine glass for each. Music was great and perfectly paired for the occasion, especially that they had two bands at each side of the Market Village shopping center so it was never outside earshot. Lots of food available at the several adjacent restaurants. If I were to have one suggestion, it'd be to give out a souvenir wine glass that is actually glass. The plastic ones were functional (and safe for an alcoholic event), but a highlight of beer or wine festivals is a take-home glass and it'd be fun to have one for this event, too, even if you pick it up on your way out.

The location was cool but could be on the dangerous side due to the train still running. Not many places to park and the places you can park they were charging $10.

Unfortunately it rained all Sunday so we did not get to catch any of the performances.

    THE KID IN ME The…read morekid in me loves a big festival in a small town. Kennesaw is the perfect backdrop for this annual festival that features a parade, musical performances, food and arts and crafts. I was determined to get to the festival regardless of the weather. As always, we arrive early, just after 8:30 so that we can get the lay of the land and take it all in. Parking was great, very close, well-staffed with attendants and only cost $5. Can't beat it! The parade usually precedes the beginning of the festivities. I did not get to see the beginning of the parade because I was distracted by one of the jewelry vendors and was too busy purchasing items. We did however get there before all was done. Every parade is unique, but audience participation is essential if you really want to have a good time. This parade is not as open as others. The streets are very narrow, so gates are used to contain the crowds. They don't throw candy from floats because they don't have them. They actually walk along the route and politely put the candy into the hands of the kids. If you yell out "Hey! I want candy too , they will give you some. If you yell out to the square dancers to "do-si-do", they will comply. The Steampunk group was one of my favorite as the fashion is just so cool and their sign read something like: Steampunk gun club and sewing circle, (interesting combination). That Harrison High School Band was the bomb! They sound so professional! After the parade, we continued to check out the various vendors. Some of my favorite vendors are the jewelry vendors that travel around with their wares. Stones to Wear is my favorite as I love sterling silver and big bold pieces. Phil and Sharon are like family and we always stop by and visit with them. The Panjo guy was unique. He took kitchen pans, (cake, brownie, heart-shaped etc) and made banjos out of them. He actually did a demonstration which was very cool. If you like dulcimer music, then you would appreciate this. I want to give a special shout-out to Superior Plumbing who provided superior toilet facilities complete with sinks and running water. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! If you decide to go, be careful as the ground is very wet and muddy. I wore sport sandals that can be easily cleaned and are quick to dry. If you don't want to eat typical carny food, eat before you go or eat afterwards because the only healthy vendor we saw was the Smoothie vendor. We wanted something more substantial so we just ate after we left. We had a great day and it was made even more special because of the train that frequently runs right through the festival! Love it!

What it is...is they basically shut down the square and paint the streets! It's been going on since 2013 and every year it gets bigger and bigger. This year they're expecting well over 100,000 people over the two day weekend. It's basically a neighborhood block party with beer, food, ice cream, live music by local bands and lots of dogs! It's a family friendly event and it's free for everyone. If you're coming here I suggest you get here early. The Saturday events usually starts at 10 AM but there were people there even earlier like 7AM. There are plenty of parking spots but because this is a "special event" all the parking spots were charging $10 per vehicle which is a bit steep for Marietta. I suggest you park either at the "Lawrence St" parking deck https://goo.gl/maps/exq8BR2cFC7g7viT9 or across the street at the Cobb/Waddle Parking Deck which is attached to the court house. It's not listed on Google but if you type in 120 Cherokee St. Marietta, GA 30060 into your GPS it should take you there... This year (2019) it rained on Sunday so we were glad we went the day before so that we got to see some of the awesome work that these talented artists do. It's super crowed but people are pretty friendly and the Marietta police presence were everywhere...safety first! Cool event. Hope you can check it out next time it rolls around.

    This is such a great event!!…read more It's free, you just find parking or park in paid lots. This is in the huge Marietta square and it takes up the entire thing. These artists are so talented & the completed works are so cool to behold. There's a ton to do, you'll spend all day for the whole family. Tons of businesses selling and giving things out.
