With a fresh chill in the air, the Fall Festivals present Atlantans with a final chance to be outdoors and catch some of the biggest events of the year. Music Midtown has historically been the highlight of the season but has played to mixed reviews in the past couple of years as they have sought a younger audience. DragonCon, A3C, Pride, Taste of Atlanta and a great Halloween festivals including the Little Five Points parade are must see events.
