About the setting

The Krog District is a mixed-use collection of historic and renovated properties centered around the popular Krog Street Market food hall, Atlanta Stove Works, and nearby retail and dining.

The Stove Works Breezeway serves as an outdoor gathering space with easy access to the BeltLine, making it a natural spot for community events. The broader district has become a destination for locals and visitors seeking dining, shopping, and outdoor time along the trail.

This year’s Fall Fest continues a tradition of free seasonal gatherings at the property. Previous iterations have included similar family activities and local vendors.

Visitors should plan for paid parking in the district’s surface lot or garage (rates vary by time and day; registration is required). Public transit, rideshares, or walking/biking via the BeltLine are alternatives. The event runs three hours, so arriving early helps with parking and securing spots for the pie contests or music
