The Atlanta Fair

Pumpkin Festival at Stone Mountain
Also until November 2nd, you can find yourself in a world of your own in Stone Mountain Park's annual Pumpkin Festival. This event provides special shows and storybook characters, adding a magical layer to the already mythical feeling of the iconic granite dome.
Woodstock International Food Festival
On October 10-12, the Woodstock International Food Festival brings a taste of the world right to you.
