This weekend is turning out to be full of parties, social gatherings and festivals as June kicks off in royal fashion. Let us be your curator of the ATL’s best experiences this weekend.

Some Food & Drink #ATLHaps this weekend

This weekend if you’re in West Midtown and hangry as all get out, we’ve got just the place. On Sunday, June 10 from 4-8 p.m., Atlanta Streets Alive will shut down a busy portion of Howell Mill Road to cars and lures pedestrians and bicyclists to experience a vibrant, traffic-free city street experience.

Ormsby’s, the convivial gathering spot on Atlanta’s Westside, is adding to the festive atmosphere and invites participants to join them for an outdoor street party featuring Sabor Brass Band from 5-7 p.m., food including brats and other specialties, drinks, outdoor games and more.
