The Inman Park Festival takes place the last weekend in April next to the Inman Park MARTA station on the blue/green rail line. There’s a large parade on Saturday at 2 p.m. and all weekend long you can enjoy music on several stages and a large artist market in the historic Victorian neighborhood.
There are several ways to get to the Inman Park Festival without a car:
Train
Take a blue line train to the Inman Park MARTA station. If you are traveling from the red or gold line, exit at Five Points and follow the signs to the eastbound platform. Board a train labeled “Indian Creek” and take it to the Inman Park station, which is only three stops away. When you reach the station, turn right after exiting the fare gates and follow the signs pointing to Inman Park.
For real-time train arrivals to better plan your commute, download and use the MARTA on the Go app.
