Learn More about the Mission of Atlanta Hip Hop Day
Atlanta Hip Hop Day got its start eight years ago and has grown so large since that time that events are now spread over two days. This year's festival takes place at Woodruff Park, with each side of the park themed around a different part of hip-hop culture. The park sections include "B-Boy & B-Girl exhibits, Emcee Battles, Turntablism and Graffiti artists." As always, Atlanta Hip Hop Day is a free event, with a focus on live music and Atlanta's contributions to hip-hop history and culture.
While you're enjoying the music, don't miss the chance to enjoy some great food and support local businesses in the process. There will be plenty of food and drink available throughout Atlanta Hip Hop Day festivities, with something for every member of the family to enjoy. Local vendors will also be setting up shop in Woodruff Park during both days of the festival.
Live Music and Hip Hop History
Shopping for Atlanta homes for sale means that you'll never be far from live, local music, and Atlanta Hip Hop Day is a great example of why that's the case. Throughout both days of the event, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy live, family-friendly performances from favorite local artists, along with regional and national talent. This year's lineup features DJ Scream, Skooly, Sean Teezy, and many more throughout the weekend.
