Peachtree Street will be closed today, Sunday, May 19, from 15th Street to Mitchell Street.
Vehicles will be able to cross Peachtree Street at traffic crossings monitored by Atlanta police.
Atlanta Streets Alive is a free, all-ages event that encourages not only pedestrians and bicyclists to attend, but also welcomes e-bikes, e-scooters, OneWheels, skateboards, Segways, and similar devices.
And yes, you can bring your dogs (just make sure they are leashed and well-behaved and please be prepared to clean up after them.)
Atlanta Streets Alive will feature an outdoor karaoke party on the Peachtree Bridge over the Connector near the Medical Arts Building, a pop-up pickleball court just north of Hardy Ivy Park, a dance party at the Underground Atlanta outdoor plaza, more than 15 artists painting murals on roll-down doors along the route, and lots of vendors, music, and food options along the way.
This year, Atlanta Streets Alive will happen on Sunday, May 19, Sunday, June 16, and Sunday, July 28, between 1 pm and 5 pm.
