The Candler Park Fall Fest runs through Sunday

Candler Park Fall Fest 2022 takes place on November 12th and 13th. If you remember, it was originally scheduled for the first weekend in October, but was preemptively canceled due to forecasts involving Hurricane Ian — and we ended up with simply gorgeous weather and not a drop of rain.

Fall Fest admission is FREE, and the activities take place around the intersection of Candler Park Drive and McLendon Avenue.

This popular street festival includes an artist market, live music, tour of homes, food, FREE kids activities, and more. You can register in advance for the kickoff 5k Run ($28) or the Fun Run ($10).

No dogs are allowed, per Atlanta city ordinance.

Festival hours: On both days, the festival runs 11:00 a.m. till 10 p.m. Note that the art market closes earlier.

Artist Market: Around 100 art vendors will be selling their wares from 11:00 a.m. to 6 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday.

Food: There are currently 19 food trucks lined up for Fall Fest. The wide variety of cuisines will be sure to satisfy. View the complete list. Food trucks will be open by noon.

Kidlandia

While most festivals charge a small fee for kid activities, all rides and shows have typically been FREE at Candler Park Fall Fest.

In the past, Kidlandia has featured a carnival atmosphere, with games, rides, roving entertainers, and sweet treats.

We’ll update with 2021 details as they become available.
