A couple weeks back we mentioned that The Avenue East Cobb was having its inaugural Fall Fest on Saturday, Oct. 9, part of the expanded events calendar that’s the result of its new management partnership with North American Properties.
The thumbnail schedule is as follows:
- 2 p.m. – Artist’s Row opens
- 3 p.m. – Event begins with live music and roaming entertainment
- 3:30 p.m. – Cornhole ATL tournament starts
- 4 p.m. – Hayrides commence
- 6 p.m. – Event ends
More details have been provided that NAP has passed along as noted below, with the event slated from 3-6 p.m.:
Starting at 3 p.m., Super Deluxe band will get the Central Boulevard rockin’ with crowd-favorite tunes. Throughout the afternoon, complimentary face painting, balloon art, hayrides and other surprise offerings will be available for guests to enjoy. Cornhole ATL is also hosting a cornhole tournament during Fall Fest and interested participants can pre-register online (October 8 deadline). Tournament winners will receive an Avenue East Cobb Experience basket filled with retailer and restaurant goodies.
Before Fall Fest officially kicks off, the first-ever Artist’s Row, curated by the Marietta Arts Festival, will come to life in the Avenue’s Central Boulevard and feature hand-crafted goods from local makers. The Artist’s Row opens at 2 p.m. and attendees are encouraged to arrive early to select their favorite pieces. A full list of participating artists can be viewed here.
All Fall Fest activities will happen in the Central Boulevard between Kale Me Crazy and Banana Republic. Drift Fish House & Oyster Bar will also provide drinks for purchase at its pop-bar in the Central Boulevard all afternoon long.

The festival is free for the public to attend; you pay for your own food, drink and shopping purchases.
