About Soccer and Sound
According to the website, this is more than a watch party.
Organizers have planned a full-day celebration of global culture and hometown pride.
Reserve a ticket, then bring your tents, blankets, and chairs to Piedmont Park for a day of fun.
There will be an international food village, local arts/crafts vendors, DJs, and interactive programming.
A lively Kids Zone will be packed with games and hands-on activities.
At 3 p.m., there will be a live screening of the World Cup final match on huge screens.
And of course, there’s the music!
Organizers have promised live performances from local and international performing artists.
